Oh hey, family and friends! It's Wilson here... nineteen months and the hippest guy on the block. Not everyone can pull off the smock, you know. I do it with excellence.
As usual, I wanted to share with you some highlights of this month and tell you all of the things I'm learning and doing.
Nothing new here... I am still spending most days at the zoo, dropping by to see my buddies: the ring-tailed lemurs. This month I learned their names: Penny, Jay-Jay, and Rocky. They should know my name by now but they never tell me hello. Rude.

I also make sure to pay my respects to the jaguar... who stalks me and licks his lips while I stare in oblivion.
My other buddies are the baby peacocks. They were born right before we moved here and we've kind of grown up together. Here I was telling them, "March, march, march!" I play better with animals than other children... maybe I'm the next Dr. Doolittle?
Speaking of "manimals," Meemur and I are still thick as thieves. Other favorite things have come and gone, but I think this guy is in it for the long haul.
Mine and Meemur's favorite way to spend our time together is reading.
Mom will ask if I would like to read, and I will tell her very matter-of-factly: "Books. Meemur." and then crawl up in this chair with my best friend. A lot of days Mom will find us just like this:
She says it makes her heart so glad to find me loving books. I do have some Mama in me.

I go around and around and around with my trains saying "choo, choo!" I also keep my trucks, bus (school buses are still a favorite), animals, and dinos on the table, too.
Mom told me I need to fire my city planner.
One skill I've discovered this month is drawing. Oh, how I could "color" all day if Mom would let me! I've crafted artwork on many a white page, but I've also been so kind to embellish our floors, coffee table, kitchen cabinets and unsuspecting nearby clothing.
Much to my parents dismay, I've become a picky eater. They like to call me their little hippie because I will not so much as glance at meat. That's right, I'm a vegetarian. I just love "manimals" too much to eat them. I will eat any fruit you put in front of me, but it's hit or miss with everything else. We're all hoping this is a stage, because I'm tired of dinnertime tantrums, too... I don't know what in the world is going on with me.
Last month I started learning my letters, but this month I've really taken an interest in them. I can recognize the letters A, E, O, X, B, H, W, and Z most of the time and I get SO excited when I see them anywhere. Thus, a man after my great-grandmother's heart, one of my favorite times of the day is after dinner at 6:30 when my favorite show comes on....
Wheel! Of! Fortune! I love it when they call out the letters. They say "E!" and I yell "E!" They ask for a T, and I call "T!" It's so much fun. And sometimes me and Mama guess the puzzle before they do...
Dad says I'm a little nerd... but in a good way. There is a good way to be a nerd, right? I am actually a good mix of a rough and tough boy and a thinker. When I play, I play thoughtfully and carefully... I measure and study.
But, I can also let loose and have some fun.
I'm still quite the talker and am saying more words than Mama and Dad can count. My sentences are: "Bye... (Dada, Mama, etc.), "Hey, (Meemur, Jaguar, Mama)", "There it is!", and "Here (Dada, Mama, Gigi)" when I'm handing you something. I really like talking....and singing, too.
I think that about covers it for this month! I'm a busy boy and I am loving life. Our new home has been good to me and I am proud to be a Mississippi boy!
Thanks for reading!
Much Love,
W

He is so adorable! And I'm glad to know that someone else has become a picky eater too. M won't touch meat (unless it is well disguised).
