Growth & Appearance:
Your hair is probably too
long. However, every time I cut it, you get sad. Plus I love it scraggly on you.
This month you have gotten so
much heavier. I must go somewhere to weigh you. You are as tall and as heavy as
your cousin, who is a year older than you. Though you still look as thin as
ever.
Eating:
You like to help. This
includes getting your food ready. You like to get out your own plates and food.
You will sit for the first half of a dinner on your chair, then you are filled
with energy and bounce about, you will often finish a meal standing.
Talking:
Your speech this month has
improved to no end. You love repeating words after your Dad. Justin will give
your words in several languages and you repeat them. Listening to you say 'buongiorno'
is so cute. You and your Dad also love saying words like "zowie
Mumma".
Sleeping:
Why oh why is it you fart
yourself awake every morning? Is it a boy thing?
Development:
Your reading has gone off
like crazy this month. Okay not of words but you love to read a book with me
and read a letter at a time. Books take for ever!! If I ask you the letters you
can point to everyone. But struggle saying a few.
Same with colours you know
all of your colours, yet can only say black, white, grey, and blue.
Favourites:
Dad bought you a vintage
money box from the Wooloongabba Antique centre (love that place) and you call
it your Duck box. Any money people give you for your eggs go in there. You are
also good at scamming extra coins for it. Your excitement is gorgeous when
someone gives you a coin.
Tamika is not a 'thing"
and neither is her baby bump, but every time she comes over your favourite thing
is to lay on Tamika's belly and kiss and poke it. I think you love being kicked
and poked back by your nephew, You get full of giggles when her tummy responds
to your pokes.
You also have a renewed love
of bouncing on our bed. You will bounce, jump, and generally go crazy until you
are all sweaty and out of breath. I am pushing for a trampoline for your third
birthday.
How I am thinking/Feeling:
Such overwhelming love, I feel
so lucky you are in my world. You are a funny person, you never fail to make me
and others laugh when ever they are around you. You are such a rough boy, yet
you are so quick to cuddle and kiss your Mummum. Days are normally so easy with
you, the only time you are a full on cranky pants, is each and every time I
have to put clothes on you. If you had it your way you would stay nude. But as
soon as the dressing is over you are back to laughter and kisses.
