 Right now, he is very into Legos and studying the world.  He was given a placemat that is a world map by his Nana Linda.  He loves it!  He studies that thing constantly while he's eating... so he also told me that his favorite country is Papau New Guinea.

Happy five years to our creative, funny, and independent little boy!
