What am I like at 2?

Me in a very cute moment

Mr. C is 2 this week! Hard to believe! I think the addition of his little brother has been tough, but he is a champ. So as you turn 2 here is what you are up to:



-your speech and vocabulary never cease to amaze us



-you repeat EVERYTHING



-you love to ask "what's that noise?"



-I laugh when i hear you say "touchdown" or "GO Gators"



-you play a "game" called "no push" with daddy-you push him and he goes flying across the room saying no push



-you love to swing at the playground saying "higher, higher, higher" or "no you stay over there"



-you love to do whatever your big brothers are doing.



-I need a lock for the refridgerator door-even though all you eat is cheese, milk, bread, applesauce, raisins and anything sweet.



-you LOVE your little brother, and really have been more gentle than I thought you would. You love to give him hugs and kisses.



-your white bear and hippo are your favorites for nap and bedtime.



-you love to read-Elmo, Cars and THe Foot Book are current favs.



-You weigh 30 lbs.



-You are a great sleeper.....thank you!



-You do have a 2 year old attitude which has earned you the nickname "Baditude"

New Normal

big brothers with "little"
Papa Meets Lincoln

What a squirt!


The littlest big brother with grandma

Not sure what new normal means, and we definitely aren't there yet, but working on it. My mom was here for 3 weeks and left on Sat. My dad came down to meet L and see his other grandsons. Of course, in 36 hours he also managed to put in a new chandalier, a new bathroom fan, fix a phone jack and do a few other small projects for us, Papa Fix it is his other name.

So it has just been the 6 of us (crazy to say that!) and all has gone well. We enjoyed our weekend, and my hubbie has been awesome to stay home until 8:30 or so to get breakfast taken care of and boys dressed, so I can take care of littlest and get dressed myself. I made it to the grocery store with "middle" and "little" as we call them, while the "bigs" were in preschool. So this is managable and fun!

Nana come on Sun and we are looking forward to that visit!!! She will cook for Thanksgiving (I hope) and be here to celebrate C's birthday.
