Well, it is almost June and I'm just getting around to the 1st quarter 2011 update! So I'll keep this one short.
Dominic took full advantage of the record snow falls early this year. He loved playing outside in the snow and "shoveling." Actually mom appreciated the encouragement to get outside during the winter too. I think I may have enjoyed building Dominic's first snowman more than Dominic did.
In January Dominic started a gymnastics class with Aunt Karen on Fridays. He is a little too fearless diving into the foam pit, jumping on the trampoline, and just being an overall crazy boy. Grandpa Ken says he obviously doesn't understand gravity yet! Dominic has also gotten very good at hanging from the bars.
We had fun at many birthday parties this winter. Happy Birthday to:
Mariana - Age 1
Gabriella - Age 2
Christian - Age 5
The "Beaumont Babies" - Una, Braeden, Blair, Mia, Olivia, Brooklyn, Caleb, Evan, Izzy - Age 2
And last but not least - Happy Birthday to DOMINIC! Our baby turned 2 on March 25th. We celebrated with a party at our house. Dominic's favorite part was singing Happy Birthday and blowing out the candles.
Benjamin Matthew added his birthday to the mix when he joined the world on March 30, 2011 weighing in at 8lbs 12oz and measuring 21.5 in long. Congratulations to Kevin & Nancy and big sibs Joey & Kate
At age 2 Dominic is talking like crazy. He knows his ABC's and can count to 16. It goes something like this... 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 11-teen, 16! He loves Dora. When Aunt Karen tried to pretend she didn't know what channel Dora was on Dominic informed her, "Dora is on demand." Humm, we may be creating a monster. He also continues to love music and is getting very good at singing many songs and nursery rhymes.
