Muma's Big Boy

This boy just keeps getting bigger and bigger and louder and crazier and cuter and lovlier. He's my best little bud, i just love him to pieces. Here's an update on some of his adventures lately.

Of course we start off with the beach, where he spends the majority of his life. He got this little lifejacket for his birthday that we've been using, but it's too big and he kinda slips out of it. So the other day we tried him with some floaties and badabing! He can swim! They're so great, and he now refuses to have any of us hold him in the water.

Malachi has always loved being in the kitchen with me, washing dishes, making food. The other day I let him help me make cookies.

This boy has developed some serious facial expressions, that go up and down like a pregnant woman. He learnt the grumpy ones from his dad.



We took him to the pet shop in the mall to show him some of the animals. He was so cute, telling me to shhhhhhh when he found a puppy that was asleep, saying "hi" and "bye" to all the animals.

He got these PJ's from our friends and they're the coolest, psycadalic PJS ever. When Malachi wears them he gets all excited and stares at them.

His Vocab has boomed and he says almost anything you do. He's started putting two words together now which is good, like "bubbles please" or "more cookie". It makes dealing with him so much easier. There are still a few words he does the sign for, like sorry and thank you.

He still eats like a pig, putting food over every part of his body, his high chair, and anything else he can get his hands on. The other day as part of his mess making, he stuck his hand inside the yoghurt container and it got stuck. That'll teach you... As you can see he eats in the nude because i'm sick of washing all his clothes after every meal.

But we just love this kid. It's crazy to think that he used to be a baby. He runs and dances and moves every minute he's awake. I have never seen another child so alive before. He moves every part of his body any chance he can get. He just loves life. And although he drives me up the wall sometimes, we wouldn't change anything about him..... (except maybe getting him to sleep though the night again).

Love you son!!
