2 to the 2

Yep folks, Declan is 22 months old today! Just can't believe it, our weeks fly by as do our months, which means this past year has been a blur. Less than 2 months to plan his second birthday party. The crazy part is, two weeks after we celebrate Dec turning 2, little Boo 2 is due! Well, I can't even tell you how much Declan has grown and developed this past month. He is doing and saying things we don't think he's old enough to do. We love his interest in books, colors, shapes and numbers. Watching him enjoy being outside, whether in our backyard or at the park, is amazing. Our little guy truly enjoys being a kid and we truly enjoy that:) We bought him some new shoes last week and when they measured him he was a size 6, he first real pair of shoes were 4's...how does one's little feet grow so quickly in a year? He's still hanging out at 25 pounds...it's a good thing he's active because we swear his diet is going to make us bankrupt! No kidding, we have to buy bananas at least twice a week now and the waffles and string cheese seem to magically disappear (I think there are days he eats more than me and I'm preggers)! I think our favorite time of the day is putting him to bed, not because we get some time to us, but because he loves his bedtime routine...reading his 3 favorite books (Hop on Pop, Go Dog Go and My Mixed Up Days), turning on his monitor with his nose (Dad's idea), holding on to puppy, saying "night-night" to Jesus, which now includes giving him high fives, turning out his light and giving us our kisses and hugs...it's just so wonderful:)
Dad dad and Mama love you Boo!

It's happens too fast, doesn't it? I don't want to celebrate Drew's 1st birthday in 2 weeks.
