On the eve of TWO!

i'm not real sure where the time has gone, but it's our last month before your big T-W-O! i just can't believe it, and would wind the clock backwards in a heartbeat if i could. you are just so much fun...

your vocabulary is exploding! you can repeat just about anything now, and you are even starting to put small sentences together. your first phrase was, "puppy where are you?" this has transpired into, "mommy, where are you?" i hear you say this over the monitor, early in the mornings when you are awake in your crib.

you are pretty smart. you know where we are now, as in close to HEB, the park, etc.


everything has possession now too. so, you let us know...."mommy's coat," "emma's cup," "daddy's shoes." you are scared to death of ducks, and rightfully so. i think you remember this trip on emma's birthday. i don't think i wrote about it then, but those ducks tried to snatch your cupcake...multiple times! why do ducks have to be so mean? yikes. you have learned to keep your distance :)

you also love to say all of our names now. "mommy, daddy, emma, and carson." so sweet.

you love your sister, and she loves you. you ask for her so many times a day when she's at school, and you love when it's time for preschool pick-up.

your curls....swoon. still amazing.

and you love baxter & spot now. baxter is your bear and spot is your dalmation puppy. so sweet. they are almost as big as you! eating is still one of your favorite pastimes. eating "smarties" is even more of a favorite.

you are cutting your bottom right corner tooth. after this little dude comes in, you will have 16 teeth...8 on top and 8 on bottom.

you have the best little laugh in the whole world...

and i'm so glad you're mine :) hugs and kisses to you, our little bro-bro. we love you dude!

p.s. you can say "dude" too! "hey dude" is just too cute!
