2 years + 10 months

Oh my goodness, our boo is growing like crazy!  2 more months til he's no longer 2!  I can't think of an age that hasn't been awesome, but right now he's at a really awesome age:)  Last Sunday he started wearing BGU's (big guy undies) and has done so well all week.  His favorites are the Mickey Mouse tractor pair and the blue and red striped pair (see below).  I was a little nervous sending him to school in them, but he did awesome, didn't need the 2 other pair or extra pair of pants I packed for him!  It's amazing how much longer it takes the diaper genie to fill up now:)  He's been quite the singer these days...everything from "I Love Trash", "Boots", to "Where is Thumpkin".  Occasionally we have to remind him to sing quieter, but we sure do love hearing him belt out "Old McDonald"!  He loves being outside and any day that's nice, that's where you'll find him!  Between the park, the backyard and our walks he's getting plenty of vitamin D.  The kid is a bottomless pit, he seriously eats all day long.  Even after eating an entire soft pretzel from the pretzel shop he tells me he's hungry!  2 waffles for breakfast starts it all in motion and it doesn't stop til he goes to bed, after a graham cracker usually:)  We fly through strawberries, blueberries, eggs (hard boiled with no yolk) and string cheese!  We can't get over how much he remembers and all the silly facts that sink in, can't get much past him:)  His new favorite book is The Very Hungry Caterpillar, but still loves Toot Toot, Beep Beep.  He's sleeping so much better (knock on wood) which means he's even happier during the day.  We're still working on sharing and being nice to Conall, "Don't push your brother" is heard quite often during the day, but there's plenty of times when he is so loving and caring with him.  We love you boo!
