Another month gone already - Marcus is such a boy now, hardly a trace of our baby left! He is chatty, funny and emotional, loving life!
Favourite toys include Duplo still, the wooden railway, die cast vehicles, the airport and the farm. He plays imaginatively, making up stories and acting them out with his toys. Olu is still his favourite lush pal - and often accompanies us on trips out.

Potty training is almost complete - other than the occasional accident in the car if he falls asleep. He wears pants when we go out - but we still carry a potty in the car just in case.
Marcus loves singing and knows the words to lots of songs now - including Baa Baa, Monkeys on the Bed, Jingle Bells and When Santa got Stuck! His favourite song is Monkeys - whilst jumping on our bed.

Marcus continues to have an excellent memory - the things he can remember amazes us regularly. His vocabulary is extensive and he thinks in a logical way - explaining how and why things work. He loves watching the trains still and knows the difference between freight, passenger, electric and diesel trains. Marcus loves to negotiate - one more tv or two sweets!
Marcus is super speedy on his balance bike - and is practising pedalling on a two wheeler with stabilisers.
Marcus has enjoyed opening his advent gifts and chocolates this year - and knows when the sack is empty that Far Away Christmas will come!
