The big 2-2 months

 

 

Is he really only 2 months away from turning 2? 

 

He is such a little boy and changing more and more everyday. 

 

Tyler & I laugh when we trip over the tractors & dump trucks & buses daily.  He is all boy & loves his toys & playing & making all kinds of choo choo & truck noises.

 

He is still a little boy of few discernible words.  He is constantly talking to us...we just don't know what he's saying.  Even though he can't always tell us what he's thinking, I love that he now understands what we say & can communicate with him in that way.  He will sign to me & he has become my little helper now that I can tell him to bring me things, move things, & put things away.

 

I love his fun & stubborn personality.  He does not like change.  He has started crying when I put any shoes on him except his tennis shoes & is perplexed at why his arms or legs aren't covered when I put short sleeves or shorts on him.  He has definitely become more possessive over the last couple of months so we are working hard at learning to share & understanding that we don't own everything we see. 

 

I love that he's a momma's boy, but it makes it very hard to discipline him.  He just cries so much harder & wants me to hold him if I tell him "no no" (which is often).

 

 

It's very hard to have any type of photo shoot because he will not sit still or look at the camera.  So I'll let the recent phone pictures show what he's been up to at 22 months & his silly personality. 

 

Loves hanging with his bubba

Refusing to sit down in his carseat & laughing at me

Sticks his tongue out when he's concentrating

Carrying his dinner to the table

Loves coloring

Eating snacks & holding Jake's ball hostage

He bumped his nose a couple of weeks ago & his nose bled.  Then he woke up this morning with another small & messy nose bleed.  He has the Marshall gene.



Woke up from his nap undressed

This is the first time I've put shorts on him since last fall...he saw that his legs were showing & tried to pull the shorts down to cover them.
