Easter gifts

L got a lot of neat things for Easter.  One of the things he got were these capsules that become sponge animals when placed in warm water.  He had a great time playing with the capsules and the water and didn't seem all that surprised that they turned into animals haha.
He also got an outdoor easel that my husband made him and the weather finally warmed up enough for us to enjoy it today!

We were also able to put together a car he got and of course he loved helping out!  I think we're going to take him and his car to the park this afternoon so he can try it out.  :)
He had a great time exploring the backyard while his dad finished up the car and I was able to capture a few great shots.  We currently have two cats and L loves them dearly.  He calls them "Cacky" and smiles so big whenever he sees one.  He loves to pet on them and follow them around the yard.





One evening at bath time my husband gave him a Mason Jar to play with in the tub and L discovered suction. He had a great time and learned quickly to submerge the jar then turn it upside down before pulling it out to get the full suction effect.
A few other updates:  L is beginning to talk more and he's even putting words together.  His favorite phrase is "It's a car"  which makes sense because he has a car obsession.  Last night I told him that I loved him and he said, "Lub woo" and I have never experienced my heart melting quite to that extreme.  Today he was looking for his dad and went up to a closed door, began knocking on it and repeatedly yelled, "DAAAA OOO DER?"  This little boy is such a blessing to us!
