23 Months


Yes, our blog has turned into only James updates.  That is what happens when your almost 2 year old keeps you so busy that you are too exhausted to blog.  We are lucky to get any update on here at all.

James is just hard.  I'm his mom so I'm pretty sure it is okay to say that.
He can be so Sweet one minute and he can throw a Sweet (out of control) tantrum the next.
From what I've heard the two's are terrible.  From what I've seen so far - I've heard right.

I think the problem is that both James and I think we are right.  Both James and I have grand plans for the day - they rarely match up.  Reasoning with a two year old is pretty much worthless.  They don't reason.

Is it wrong that I can't wait for 7:00pm each night?  It's James bed time.  I think I remember a time when I would miss him while he napped.  Now I just pray for a longer nap.

Well our little man is almost to two.

"Two" or "Too" are two of his favorite words to say.

He loves to sweep, so much that I wasn't able to do it unless he wasn't around....so we got him his own broom.  He still wants the big broom and gives us the small one.  At least the small one works.

He still has his binky - "bunny" but sadly when he hits two officially we will be saying goodbye.  I fear that we will all miss Bunny.

He loves ALL of his toys and never wants to share.  He especially loves the toy that someone else has picked up.

He loves to play "hiding."  It is played most of the day.

He loves ice cream

He loves to wrestle

He is back to two naps.  I think this might be because I want him to have two - he sleeps during both so we are sticking to two.

All in all I love being his mom.  I just have to remind myself that "I can do hard things."

keep it up! He is the cutest. I love watching him from the "stand" during Sacrament :) Good luck with the paci/bunny goodbye--that's gotta be rough.

ps. I wait for 7 o clock too.

Mexico sounds amazing!
