A Place to Call Home Again

Seven is getting to be such a little man. Of course like every 2 year old on the market these days he likes to say "mine" from time to time, but he has come a long way since the spitting and drooling he used to do. He is learning new words and phrases everyday which keeps us on our toes, but mostly its the funny things that we have no idea where he gets them.
Haley was reading him a book the other night with animals in it and asked him if he thought God did a good job making all the animals. Seven thought quietly (something rare for him) and stated confidently "I eat all these".  The other morning at breakfast he tried bacon for his first time and after taking a bite said "mmm I like pig". So as you can see our days are filled with much laughter and smiles with Seven around. 
He also loves his baby brother and still calls him "baby Michael". They play very well together most of the time and only every once in awhile do we have to remind Seven that jumping on his brother isn't probably a good choice yet.
Seven loves to sing and dance while listening to music. He especially likes to sing in the car and entertain us with his amazing ability to memorize things that we had no idea he knew. He still has a part of his heart reserved for Cars Movie, but has begun branching out to other titles as well. Veggie Tales, Open Season, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc and Barnyard to name a few. 
He loves chicken nuggets (actual chicken ones not McDonalds). He also loves oranges, bananas, milk, orange juice, gram crackers, toast... you get the point, the kid can eat.
We should have some more updated pictures of both of the boys soon, but we are still getting the pictures sorted and in order after the great data loss of 2008. We only have about 4500 more pictures to sort.
