It doesn't seem like it was really 23 months ago that we were snuggling that little guy and trying to figure out what the heck we were doing.
Not that we really know what we're doing now :)
But now we have this crazy little kid:
I can't put into words how much he makes us laugh or just how much we love him. Even when he is driving me absolutely crazy I still feel like the luckiest person in the world to be his mommy. He's a funny kid.
He repeats everything (even the things I would rather he didn't!)
He's talking up a storm and I stopped tracking his words on my phone once he surpassed 100.
He FINALLY called me mommy this past weekend and my heart about melted.
He loves his duck (still) and insists on having him before going to bed.
He has a newfound love for 'bankets' (blankets) and will drag them all over the house - even up the steps as seen above.
He loves to sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Ring Around the Rosy", sometimes even combining the songs.
He looks you in the eyes, says "I kiss!" and plants a big kiss on your lips.
He gives hugs with enthusiasm when asked.
And there are a million other things that make him the awesome kid that he is. The past 23 months have been a trip and I know the future will be even more fun.
I love you, Andrew :)
I can't believe he is almost two years old! He is growing so very fast. Happy Almost Birthday, Andrew!
ReplyDeleteI know! I keep thinking to myself "Has it really been 2 years??". I guess time really does fly when you're having fun. :)
DeleteI know! James will be 2 on April 21 (he was supposed to be April 10), and daily I cannot believe it. I just got took a CPR course and when I was looking at the baby mannequin (which was kind of creepy by the way), I kept thinking that James used to be that size. And now, well, he is not! By far the hardest, but BEST, time of my life :)
ReplyDeleteAndrew was supposed to be April 10th, too, but decided he didn't want to wait and showed up 15 days early. You're right, it's been hard, but it has been awesome. I can't imagine life without this crazy little kid in it :)
