Our little boy is celebrating his SECOND birthday! We had a little party for him on Saturday and it was so much fun! From homemade pizza to a 3-D train cake to the present of his "own guitar" the party was a huge success.
Today is the actual day of his birth. I still remember the feeling that came when he was placed in my arms for the first time!
He has grown so much in the past two years...everyone comments on how sweet and loving he is.
He still loves "ool time." Already, he knows his "A-B-C's", can count (almost!) to 10 (we usually skip 3 and 4!), and is working on learning his colors.
He adores his "baby sister" and loves to bounce her in her little Jumperoo (of course, playing in the jumperoo was one of his favorite past times as a baby!).
His all-time favorite past time is playing out side. He has finally learned how to ride his tricycle and will stay out on the carport for an hour or more at a time just riding around and around.
He is doing so good with his potty-training, too! Other than wearing a Pull-Up at night and the occasional nap-time accident, he happily wears his "big boy underwear" and takes great pride in keeping them "clean and dry, Mama!" I started out rewarding him with M&Ms but I quickly discovered that he is much happier when I reward him with an olive :-)
He loves to "help mama" or "help dada." He has learned to put his plate and spoon in the dishwasher after each meal and enjoys "helping" fold cloths. During the day, he is very happy playing with Allison and I but as soon as Jason gets home, he becomes daddy's little shadow! Together they feed the chickens, gather the eggs, build fence, and go fishing.
Last night we put rails on his "big boy bed" and he slept there all night. Speaking of sleeping, I need to hurry and get his Birthday Breakfast ready because he'll be waking up soon. Have I ever mentioned how much I love this little boy?!?!
