He is so social. He always loves to say hi, especially to Bridger ("Der") and Kassidy ("Kayee")

He is super cute when its cold, He snuggles! It is hard to get long snuggles from him because he can't sit still for even one minute! He is such a busy body...just like Catherine was at this age!

He loves his Blanket ("Key"), Puppy (Buppy"), and Binky ("Gee")

Has to have his water in his crib whenever he sleeps.

Luckily he has Not figured out how to get out of his crib!

He just recently dropped his morning nap and now only takes one...Usually from 2-4, sometimes longer if he doesn't poop.  He is a good sleeper! He will go to bed for the night sometime between 7:30-8pm and will get up around 8 am. He usually likes to chat in his bed for awhile before falling asleep! 

One night he was chatting so long and started yelling for us. We went in there to find that he had thrown all of his blankets out and had taken his sleep sack and jammies off and had thrown those out of his bed too. You could tell he had tried to take his diaper off too! Crazy boy! 

He loves to be held A LOT! He says, "hold me, hold me"! 

He loves having me read books to him at bedtime. His favorite ones recently are Little Blue Truck

He loves watching baby signing time. Sometimes that is the only way I can get dinner made!

He has been doing much better at prayer time. He puts his hands together and tries really hard to close his eyes. He will even try saying the prayer by repeating the words you tell him! super cute!

He is such a chatter box and parrot. He will repeat anything you tell him to say! He talks really good too! However he will keep repeating something he is excited about until you finally repeat it back. He pretty much says whatever he sees.

He loves to do whatever Caden and Catherine are doing and hates to be left out!

He hates loud noises! (Blender, Lawnmower, sirens, ect.) He will make you hold him while you cover his ears and he will stay that way until the loud sound it gone. 

Loves shoes!

Can be a big helper. He loves to try and vacuum and he loves to sweep/ mop!

He loves to be outside! He likes to play in dirt and very fascinated by all living things!

He is a very picky eater. Sometimes he will love something and then the next day he will hate it. He hates onions. However He loves pizza always!

Whenever he gets hurt, no matter how small he makes us kiss his owie and then he will be just fine! It is really funny when he makes us kiss his bum haha!

He loves to jump on the trampoline and is getting good at actually jumping. 

He is getting better at sitting and watching movies with us. He especially likes to watch basketball. 

He loves to growl and act like a crazy monster!

For his birthday we had an Airplane themed party! He loves airplanes and loved having them all over the ceiling! All day he kept pointing to them and saying "Airplane, Airplane!" We had a pizza party, McKay Loves pizza! We invited Bridger Mattson and Brianna Bean Mattson to join us! Grandma and Grandpa Freeman were going to come but because we are all in "Quarantine" they had to stay home. For his presents he got a paw patrol toy and a strider bike...He loved both! Grandma and Grandpa Huntington mailed McKay's present to him! They sent him a little truck with tools, and a water dripper for sand castles! He has loved both!! He loves birthdays! After his and Catherine's birthday now whenever he sees whipped cream he starts going crazy and repeating over and over "Birfday, Birfday, Birfday!" haha love that boy to pieces! Every day there is always something that he makes us laugh about!
