ABCs and 123s of Will at Age 3

Active: This boy has a hard time slowing down. He is busy, busy, busy!
Boy: All boy! Sports, dinosaurs, tools and trucks!
Caring: Often brings Maggie her blanket and toys if she's sleeping on the couch.
Dancing machine: Put on some music and he'll show you some moves!
Entertainer: Dancing, singing & making music are on his resume now, but I have a feeling he'll be a comedian soon.
Food-lover: He is a little picky when it comes to eating, but he could eat all day long if we'd let him.
Giggler: Funny noises and tickles will set him off. His giggles are contagious.
Handsome: He's got a killer smile and eyes that make us melt!
Icecream eater: self-explanatory!
Joyful!
Karate: I think he's teaching himself karate moves and noises!
Loving: He gives great hugs and kisses and still enjoys cuddles.
Messy: He loves to get all his toys out and then somehow "forgets" to put them away.
Not yet potty-trained. If anyone would like to volunteer to be the trainer, let us know! Not showing much interest at this point.
Observant: He notices if something doesn't belong or wasn't there last time.
Peanut allergy: He was retested at his 3 year appointment, but still rates a "3" on the scale (no change from last time). Our fingers remain crossed that he'll outgrow it.
Quarters, pennies, dimes and nickles: He knows to ask his grandparents for money with every visit.
Remembering more and more. He can fill in the blanks on prayers at dinner and bedtime.
Sleeping better: Will falls asleep on his own in his own bed and then ends up in Daddy & Mommy's bed around 1 or 2 in the morning.
Talkative: After his tubes, his vocabulary and speech have improved greatly!
Unhappy with it comes to needles. After IVs in the hospital, he now knows what's going to happen with he sees needles.
Vegetable hater: We used to be able to hide pureed veggies in his food; now he detects the flavor and rejects the food.
Work: The other day we asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, he came up with Elmo!
X-tra special: Maybe we're biased, but we think he's super great!
Yellow: If you ask what his favorite color is, he'll probably say blue. But, if you put colors in front of him he always goes for yellow.
Zerbert-giver: It's a Keiser thing.
