He is 2 today!

Newborn...
6 months old...
1 year old...
18 months old...
And now 2 years old!

My how time flies when you are having so much fun. I can't believe he's been in our lives for 2 years now. Seem like forever and also such a small amount of time all wrapped up into one package. He is an amazing kid...what parent doesn't think that?

At 2 years old he...

*is so into Thomas trains. Well, trains in general I guess. We can't get into the car without him asking to see choo-choos. Whenever he hears one blow it's horn, he puts his hand to his ear and says "Choo-choo!" followed by putting his hand over his mouth and saying "All Aboard!".
*Loves to go in the boat and fish with us. He hasn't quite got the hang of fishing...he's too busy finding things he can throw into the lake!
*Has been sleeping in a "Big Boy Bed" since Saturday. We weren't really all that concerned on getting him in one, but I found a fantastic car bed with a mattress at a sale and we decided to try it out right away. No problems whatsoever. Whew! He loves to sleep in his car!!
*Has been having lots of play dates with his friends. We had everyone over here on Tuesday and it was so great to watch the kids play and slide down the slide and swim in the pool and run through the sprinkler. B definitely enjoys playing outside with his buddies.
*Will be going to his last day of ECFE classes until the fall today. We are bringing in cupcakes for snack time...and will miss the teachers and new friends we met this year at class.
*We will be getting together with friends more informally throughout the summer. We are so excited about not being on a set schedule and we'll most likely be heading out to the Mora and Rush City pools, the Princeton Splash Pad and hopefully the Children's Museum and the Como Zoo all throughout the summer. Can't wait!
*is wearing size 2T and 3T clothes and size 7-8 shoes.
*is wearing size 5 diapers...potty training is not even on the radar yet. I'm not pushing it!
*is hopefully done with teething. His 2 year molars made their debut a few weeks ago and so I hope that the terrible teething time is over!

Well, that's all this mommy brain can really think about for now...we are so thrilled to have this fun, exciting and funny 2 year old in our lives!
