"See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya."Is the funniest and this one just melts my heart,"Mama, can you cuddle for me, please?" Great post!
Ahh, I love this post! He's got some good saying :) He's a doll, Nancy. I'm so proud of him.
I just about can't stand it...can Erik be any cuter? Waiting sooo anxiously to give my sweet nephew a BIG Auntie hug!!!
Wonderful post!!
Love this!! I'd love to see another video of my second-favorite boy (hint hint) :)
"You wouldn't understand" is my line!!!
"Smells like woof" is something I should start using.
How adorable is he???
Awesome! Thank you for this. Doesn't like Gracie Cat?! Avery is not into the cats either, since they ignore her she ignores them one day though.....and no I am not getting a dog.

Wow, Nancy. Erik is amazing. His skills and vocabulary give me so much hope for Ava. AND he is adorable! Way to go, Erik!
"You wouldn't understand"--get used to this one, Nancy. My ten year old thinks this saying applies to nearly every situation! Motherhood--*sigh*
Heidi
I just love him!
What a cute picture of Erik! Great list encompassing all that he is at this moment in time too. I loved the "It's wake up time." Kayla used to say "Mommy, I up! I up Mommy!"
