A honest to God Erik-ism:
Us:
Erik, do you want pizza?
Erik:
No, I will eat pizza later, remember?
Us:
How can you remember something that is happening later?
Erik:
Uh, I don’t know.

So I decided to start making a list of some of the funny things Erik says. He will say something for the longest time (like he called his blanket his ‘bait’) and then he will learn the correct word. Sadly, we forget a lot of the cute things, so I figured why not write them down.
DVD – DD
Couch – Chouch
Garbage – Darbage
Erik – Airwalk (although he has stopped this in the past month and has started to say Erik correctly)
Ketchup – Chetchup
Blanket – was Bait, then Blank, now it’s Blanket
Heavy – Heady
Love – Lah
Computer – Pear
Sayings:
Erik don’t like it
Leave Erik ‘lone
This is my Logan/Leroy/Mommy/Daddy (never Drake, poor boy)
I’ll add more as I think of it.

Videos
Patti and I were going through the “digital clutter” that accumulates over time (especially when you keep changing computers/hard drives). While doing that, we found some forgotten videos taken from the camcorder or our cell phones that we want to share.
Most of the videos (actually, I think all) are of Erik and they’re all pretty cute!
Enjoy and let us know what you think!

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.
