My Baby is Really TWO

Jack,

You are one big boy! You continuously amaze me with what you come up with each day, and some times I just have to sit back and giggle. You are still capturing people's heart with your blue eyes and blonde hair and your personality. I love it!

At two, you weigh in at 28.5 lbs (50%) and are 34 inches tall (45%). You wear a size 5-6 shoe and absolutely love your Crocs. You speak really well with 4-6 word sentences and continue to get better each day. You are a constant talker with a spectacular memory. You want to know any and everyone's name and get offended if people don't say hello or bye back to you...even animals (Mommy, they no hear me). Right now, some of your favorite phrases are "No Mommy, I do it myself" and "I don't remember." You love playing with mommy and daddy and not so much by yourself. You always want your toys to talk to you no matter what toy it is. You love acting like a cow and also feeding the cows off the back of your Jeep. It is not uncommon for you to start busting out a "moo" in public along with licking me! We also play with your Mickey Mouse clubhouse almost daily with a mix of trains here and there. You still enjoy books being read to you and doing puzzles. You are learning letters and recognizing them all around you, and I absolutely LOVE it. You truly soak up learning right now. You enjoy being outside but again, would rather play in our driveway versus at the neighbors' houses. You love the park, finding airplanes and the moon in the sky, and listening to the noises outside. You are a constant mover with running as your usual way around.

Most days your a good eater. You absolutely LOVE pizza and can eat quite a bit of it. You also like PB&J and chicken nuggets. You enjoy fruit a lot with grapes and blueberries topping the list. Veggies are a hit and miss depending on the day. If I ask you what you want for a snack, it is a fruit snack 99% of the time, and if chips are seen, you want one!

You sleep well but are an early riser. We are lucky if you make it to 6:30. We just moved you to your big boy bed, and it is not going well :( You think it is the coolest thing ever to get out of it and run to find us. In the morning, we hear the door of your room slam on the monitor and know that you are just a few seconds away from being at our bedside. You have also begun to pee pee on the potty before bath time. You are growing way too fast.

You started school back in September one day a week and LOVE every second of it. When I come to pick you up, you aren't ready to go. Often, you are covered in paint! I wish I could see you sometimes because the word is that you LOVE Chapel with the dancing :) In January, we enrolled you in gymnastics once a week. Again, something you really enjoy and are learning a lot. Mommy and you stay pretty active during the week!
 Jack, you truly are my sunshine...even on those rough days! I cherish our morning snuggles on the couch as we watch Mickey Mouse and soak up every kiss you are willing to give me - which isn't a lot! I adore watching you grow and learn. Stay pure in heart and remember that God is going to do great things with you.

I loved you yesterday, I love you today, and I will love you tomorrow,
Mommy
