Owen is two!

Wow, how is my baby TWO?

Here are a few of the funny things my boy says:

Owen gets hurt or starts crying tears and "clean up Owens eyes" I then have to wipe his tears away with my thumbs before anything else.

If his hands get sticky or he sees someone make a mess he says "clean up time!"

Tonight we taught him to play hide and seek!! He would stand in his doorway cover his eyes and count "2,3 Owen find mommy!"

He loves to help, but of course it is on his terms.

He is eating like 10 foods, he is so picky! These include: yogurt, cereal bars, squeeze pouches, chicken nuggets, peanut butter crackers, apples, bananas, peaches, strawberries, watermelon, Popsicles, various crackers like gold fish and oyster crackers, of course anything sweet like cake or cookies will always be tried and devoured!

Pretend play has started and it is adorable!! Today Mickey Mouse and his twin(we have 2) were introduced "hi, I Mickey!" Ughhhh. They were pressed together in a hug. Then one said to the other "my turn" and got into his car with the one and only Minnie Mouse and road off down the sofa pillow!!

He did GREAT at his 2 year dr apt!! Showed off his amazing speech skills and talked the doctors ears off! He was impressed and told me he didn't have to be biased!! Haha! He is still 25th in weight and moved up to 50th in height! He is wearing some 12m, mostly 18m and a few 24month clothes. The end of the appointment was one shot and he didnt cry! He was playing on my iPhone and after it was given to his thigh he looked at me and said "Owens leg hurts!" Broke my heart, but thankfully I told him it was all done and let's go bye bye! And he was ready to roll!

We are always on the hunt for water/ponds when we look out the windows when we drive around town. Bridges are a really big deal and are a great distraction when he is in melt down mood. He can recognize the 2 bridges on the way home and anticipates the second one and often tells me when we are "back on road". I have been working on him saying our street name and the other day he said it without me telling him to say it first!! I am a proud mama as my boy is so smart!! Tho we have to be careful as he is a little sponge!
