Brrr, it’s getting cold out there!  We took a trip up to Syracuse to visit Mimi and Opa for Thanksgiving, and ran right into a blizzard.  Fortunately the family photo shoot we had organized was indoors.

So here I am a three and a half years old!  As you can tell from my grin, I’m a spirited little guy, and I know my own mind.  I love imagining things and playing pretend, although most of my story lines follow a similar and highly predictable narrative arc.  Every story I tell consists of one character getting into trouble, falling down, and yelling “help me!” before being rescued by a different character.  At school they used to be worried and come running whenever I cried out for help, but they’ve realized that it’s usually just me pretending.

Current likes: Being right (“I told you, Mama!”)

Current dislikes: When cool trucks drive by on Lena’s side of the car rather than mine
