2.5


On May 4, Grant turned 2.5. WHAT? I can't believe it! I didn't get a great picture of him from that day specifically (which is something I have always done in the past) but these are pretty close. What is he up to these days?
- His thoughts seemed to have taken a leep a few weeks ago. Bigger, more complex things coming out of his mouth all the time.
- He has started pretending. It usually one of two things. Either with Alayna's dolls and stroller - taking care of them (what he sees me do all day long) or he's grabbing some bags and getting on his bike to "go to work" - just like Daddy (however Daddy drives a big truck:) )
- He has great coordination.
- He loves balls...playing catch, hitting baseballs, bouncing balls, playing basketball, etc
- About a month ago he started stuttering. Usually when he is trying to tell us something - a thought of his own. Not when simply responding to a question. He little mind is moving faster than his mouth I guess.
-He is potty trained with the exception of nights and naptime. We're working on naptime a bit and are successful about a third of the time. Gotta start somewhere.
- Still not a fan of eating and is not gaining enough weight
- Still likes to wear hats
- Is actually quite funny and loves to act goofy. Some of his favorite words "watch diss (this)"
- Can't say his "k" sounds very well. Cookie = Tookie and Kitty = Titty
- Still sleeping in his firetruck toddler bed
- Sleeps with Spot (stuffed dalmation), Puppy (little blue dog), the puppies blanket, his blue puppy blanket to snuggle with and his other blue blanket to cover up with
- Has a sassy side to him, but around strangers hardly says a word (or moves a muscle)
- Can pedal a trike forward now
- Generally is a very caring, loving little boy

We love our little man!
Trying to add calories to strawberries - he's not a huge fan.
Last week was pretty rainy - so we wore boots outside :)


Helping Mommy in the kitchen. He loves to help.
