CAN YOU GUESS WHO'S TWO???

 Howdy Folks! Yep - today I'm two and am no longer a "baby" in the eyes of my Mommy.  This actually makes her a bit sad.  :(  I'm an incredibly cheerful little man who loves to smile and play.  Big sister, Evelyn and I have a blast together!  We play on the swing set and ride bikes. We read books and color.  I'm really liking trains, cars and dinosaurs these days too.  My favorite thing to do is climb!  It drives Mommy and Daddy nuts, but I enjoy hoisting myself up on the kitchen sink to turn on the faucet and play in the water.  And I move at lightening speed.  They turn around for a minute, and there I go.

  Although I'm as skinny as a rail, my appetite is quite impressive....same as my sleep habits- I'm such an easy kid.  I'm FULL of words, (words that you can actually understand), and chat it up all day long.  I thank Evelyn for my verbal skills.  That girl talks and talks and talks!

I have to be on my best behavior that I'm two since I'm now old enough to be placed on the naughty rug.  I'm going to have to really consider if the action is worth the consequence of time out.  Hhmmm...Decisions...  :)
 I sure hope all of you can come to my birthday party so we can celebrate this big day together!

WHO SAID WE ARE GETTING OLD ?!!!

Happy 1/2 Birthday to ME!!!

That's correct...today I am 18 months old! Look out Evelyn- before you know it, I'll be doing circles around you. :)

I'm a very active ball of energy who likes to climb, climb, climb! Mom worries because I'm such a monkey, but I tell her not to since I've already mastered falling gracefully.

As you can see, I have many teeth and am currently drooling like crazy, so more are on their way. I'm an outstanding eater, so I'm not exactly sure why I need more teeth??? To fill in my smile, maybe???

I'm able to sign 5ish words. Could sign more if I were able to sit still to watch the videos. I can say way more words. The trouble is most people can't understand me. Guess I have to keep practicing. I'm really into repeating words. A few of my favorite sayings are "tickle, tickle, tickle", ..."ashes, ashes, we all fall down', "e-i-e-i-o",and "go, go,go".

I love to play with anything that has wheels, and like anything "little people". I also enjoy reading too. Most fun of all is playing absolutely anything with big sis, Evelyn. She and I are the greatest of friends.

I continue to prove I'm an amazing being who has such a sweet spirit and a great love for all around me. Oh, yeah- I'm also super handsome and have an infectious smile.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
TO ALL OUR CHILDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN

Thanksgiving - The day after! The Turkey and all the fix'ns were delicious. It sure is nice when the family can get together but somewhat sad when all can't be there. We missed you Julie, Brandon, Gavin & Vivian. Good conversation and fun with the "G" kids.

As much fun as it is making a slide show with music, I haven't figured out how to get the photos to look anything but blurry. Here's a link to the Picasa Web Album for a better look.
