- We play “monsters” on the bed and hide in the “cave” under the blankets. “I see a monster - lets hide” you’ll say to me with big, wide eyes. You can play this game forever.
- You fell off the Townsends guest room bed and got a real shiner on your cheek that has lasted all month long.
- When owl and elephant sleep, you want me to tickle their backs, like I do for you.
- You have a cute way of answering questions lately. You say, “yes, I DO want some ice cream.” or “Yes, I DO see that yellow truck.”
- We moved into our new kitchen this month - just in time for Thanksgiving.
- You finally met your cousin Jack over Thanksgiving and we all had such a great time together! Aunt Jen let you feed the dogs and Uncle Jono held pillow fights with you on the bed.
- At your two year old check-up this month, you were 22% weight (26 lbs) and 97% height (37 inches tall), so tall and skinny! Dr Chea said you spoke at a four year old level and that most children your age can only put two words together. Aw, such a smart boy!
- Driving in the car the other day, you said, “Everyone has hair,” which isn’t exactly true, but I just love your little observations so much that I didn’t have the heart to explain the reality of baldness.
- I have PJs that are blue with red strawberries and you like to pretend to eat the strawberries, but you always share with me.
- One morning this week you threw a fit about brushing your teeth. “I don’t like to brush my teeth” you said, and really dug your heels in deep with huge sobs. We brushed your teeth anyway, but I see a real independence streak emerging.
- You pronounce the word “elephant” as “ef-fant,” and when I pick you up out of your crib in the mornings, you say, “Don’t fall, Ef-fant. Hang on Owl,” as your friends are tucked close under your arms.
- If you eat a purple popsicle, your lips turn black and your father and I are rasing a little goth-baby.
- You play with the coffee-maker and say, “I’m cooking.”
I love you my sweet beautiful boy! Love,
Mom
