 Marcus is such a joy. Not only is he endless, fun entertainment, but he also inspires delight, invokes so much love and makes you feel crazy happy in his presence. He truly is a gift. I always want him close, to make him smile, and try to express how amazing his is.

Milestones:

• Had his very first dentist appointment and he teeth look good. Marcus seems to enjoy brushing his teeth. If you tell him it’s time to brush his teeth, he happily goes upstairs, climbs on the toilet and goes about brushing.
• Puts a lid back on a marker.
• Thanks to his big brother, he is interested in letters and can actually sing part of the alphabets. We play this game “Guess the the Letter” in the bathtub where I ask the boys to name the foam letter that I pull out of a basket. Marcus loves it though he thinks every letter is a B or D.
• Sort of saying Owen’s name. You would think that he’d say Owie or O, but he’s saying more of a Win word.
• Likes to climb onto things…especially people! I have to pull him off of Owen sometimes because he can get a little too aggressive.
• Loves playing with legos, trains and watching Daddy play Mario Galaxy.
• Will stop what he’s doing and come give Mommy a kiss and a hug if I ask for it. For kisses, he makes this adorable Mmmmuuua sound. He melts my heart.
