The Fintons

Brandon, Patti, and Erik

WHOA!

I didn’t realize how long it’s been since I’ve updated!

Not much has gone on in the life of Erik. His vocabulary has gotten exponentially better. He can speak in sentences now. The cutest thing he says by far is the way he says “thank you.” Brandon and I have gotten him to say “no, thank you” now. It’s funny because he uses two different tones. He says no really low, then he says thank you really high. Haha, he’ll get the hang of it.

Erik started going to daycare. He only goes two days a week for a couple hours each day, but he loves it. It’s really good for him as well. I originally had a class to take this summer but then was able to drop it. The daycare was already paid for, and he needs the socialization so we kept him in it. He never wants to leave!! Whenever I go pick him up he cries. His teacher’s name is Alexis and he loves her.

The potty training is slow going. He fights with me when I try to do it. He constantly shouts no. *sigh* I’m going to try harder here, soon. I’m giving up on the waiting thing.

We have started going in the boat again and Erik loves it. The above picture is him in his new life jacket (yes it’s on backwards). He actually doesn’t mind his life jacket this year, so that’s a positive thing.

Our beautiful boy

Things have been well with Erik lately. He has been learning more and more words everyday. He always says the word “dog” every time he hears one bark. It’s great.

Erik has returned to his sitter Radha. As he loves it there, we couldn’t be more happier to have her watch him again. Radha’s daughter Ekshya and Erik love playing together. He is always so happy when we go pick him up. Radha and Ubaraj and great friends and we appreciate them very much.

Erik isn’t so fond of water. He loves to go out on the boat, but does not like to swim. Grandpa Finton is the only one that was able to get him in the water at all. We will keep trying though, as Brandon and I both love being at the lake. Erik does as well, but screams when he gets in the water. So funny.
