The Deuce

My baby is two.  He isn't a baby anymore.  You can tell looking at pictures of him.  He totally lost the baby face.  I'm heartbroken!!!  Where did the time go!  But I'm also thrilled he's growing and thriving so well.

For Little M's big 2 party we decided to go with a construction theme.  Mostly because I saw a cake with that theme and HAD to make it.  And Little M still doesn't have an opinion on what we do so I'm taking advantage while I still can! ;)

Here's a list of what my big kid is up to these days:

• 21 pounds even (almost on the curve!)
• 29 inches tall
• Well baby check up went great, Dr. J thinks he's a rock star, I agree!
• Still running everywhere
• climbing (Lord help my heart!)
• Charming the pants off of everyone he meets
• Following commands/understands what I say when I tell him something
• Was still not talking too much until I asked Dr. J about speech therapy.  Then he yelled "I wanna go bye-bye!!!". Dr. J isn't to worried about his speech. ;)
• Now says: Dada, Daddy, Dog, Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaama (only in a whining tone!), bug, night-night, bye-bye, BOO!, and mine.  I'm pretty sure NO! is up next
• Oh he dropped the F-bomb too.  But only once and we didn't react (at least not in front of him!) so maybe he forgot?? Hope, hope!
• Can throw a temper tantrum like no other!  Complete with banging his head against the wall and then laying down on the floor.  Seriously, WHERE DO THEY LEARN THAT!!!!!
• Has overcome his aversion to sugar. DAMN! He had his first s.lurpee and is now hooked!
  
   
And here's the pic from the big 2 party.  And yes I was accused of being An Overachiever Mom. Just because I may or may not have hand-made every sign and barricade at the party.  ;)





















Again, thank you P.interest!






My birthday boy!









I think he finally gets the concept of opening presents. :)
