Our little guy turned two, and someone must have told him that he could grow up. He's changing so fast, trying so hard to keep up with his sisters and very interested in being "like Dada". He puts Joe's hats on, carries his basketball everywhere, and likes to wear the pajama shorts that he thinks are boxer shorts! He also spends lots of time with Mommy, though, and got into Aunt Julie's mascara several times while she was visiting! I actually had to go buy makeup remover to clean his eyes after this mischief.....
Daddy and Clara taught Isaiah how to give a "smolder" look (from Tangled). Now one of my favorite things is to get a "smolder kiss" from him! He loves to jump on the trampoline, jump off the couch onto cushions, imitates Hannah's headstands, and took off pedaling his trike the other day. He watches his sister closely and jumps right in!
We set the twin bed up in his room for Aunt Julie's visit, so it seemed a good time to switch him to his big boy bed! He loves to snuggle under the cozy blankets, especially when they have been warmed up in the dryer first! He always pats the bed next to him and asks me to lay down "My bed Mama". I love our conversations at night, talking about everything that we did that day and singing songs together. He will now initiate big "I love yous" and put his arm over my neck while we are snuggling. He really is so sweet and affectionate.
He's also showing a lot of interest in the potty and will take off his pants and diaper and sit on his potty or on the big potty. Some days he'll go 4 or 5 times on the potty, so we're just letting him go when he wants to, usually with a sister heading in there with him in case he needs help. He is very proud when he goes and loves to have everyone cheer, which he cheers along with yelling "Yeah, Zayzay!!!" He's growing up so fast. I love seeing him able to do more with his sisters, but I am missing my baby at times and soak up every snuggle he'll give me!
