22 Months


It recently dawned on me that I need to start planning a birthday party. I can't believe 2 years have passed so quickly. I haven't written in his baby book forever so this is my way of documenting recent developments.

-When he wants to play with you he will grab your hand and say "Play". He has always been a great independent player, but since he learned this trick we find ourselves playing a lot more.

-He is still into trucks, cars, & trains. He plays with Troy's childhood matchbox cars-favorites include fire trucks, white vans, and jeeps. He insists upon taking them everywhere we go. He almost always carries 3 (one under the arm pit, 2 in his hand)

-He says "Please" and "Thank you".

-He says "Duve you".

-He has several phrases "Where'd it go?", "What's that?", "There it is."

-Much to his Dad's frustration he has become very picky about bedtime stories. He shoves most of his suggestions away. He MUST take 2 pacifiers to bed. If for some reason he loses one of them during the night we must give him another. He usually brings 2 trucks to bed too.

-He hates getting dressed, hair cuts, cutting finger nails, and brushing teeth. He kicks, screams and runs away to avoid any of these activities.

-He loves TV. We have to limit his time there because he could easily sit for hours watching Dora, Sesame Street, & Handy Manny.

He is such an easy going little guy with big personality. He loves to help Mom around the house, dance, and be silly. His laugh is contagious. He drives me nuts, but makes me smile.
