Beckett: 3 1/2 Years Old

Beckett has been growing up so much lately. I wanted to do a 3 1/2 year update on the little man so that we can remember this time.

First of all, he is a great big brother. He does have a hard time sharing with sissy but he is so affectionate and loves her to death. It's the cutest thing ever to see him try to get her to laugh. It's really important to him that she thinks he is funny, and she definitely thinks he is funny!

Beckett started the tantrum stage at about 2 1/2. My mom told us that she thinks the 'terrible 3's' are more like 2 1/2-3 1/2. She was definitely right, at least in Beckett's case. He was starting to throw tantrums around 2 but they went to a whole different level at 2 1/2. I can distinctly remember one of our first trips to Costco after Harlow was born.  Beckett literally scram through the ENTIRE store. I was mortified, especially when all the elderly were staring at me to get my act together. I can gladly say that Beckett is now started to transition out of this tantrum stage. He still throws tantrums, but they are definitely a lot less frequent and usually less intense than they used to be. Praise the heavens!

His favorite thing to do, in general, is just to play with his friends or be around people. He is definitely a people person. He loves all of his friends at school and playing with our neighbors, Elliott and Jensen.

His favorite toys are anything that has to do with building: blocks, big legos, lincoln logs, etc.

Beckett is a very affectionate little boy. He loves to cuddle and give loves and kisses. I love that about him.

Our little stinker is not a good eater! There isn't any food that you can get him to eat 100% of the time. Dinner time is usually the worst time of day for him. The foods he will eat are fruits, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, ramen, crackers, popcorn, and yogurt raisins. Other than that....good luck!

We love our little boy and I can't believe how much he has grown. Sometime he seriously looks like a little man. Time goes by too fast! :(
