Favorite Things

One of my most favorite things that Andrew does is when I ask him for a kiss while he is drinking his baba of milk. He will ponder the question, then pull out his baba and pucker up.

I give him a kiss on very cold, milky lips.

It is good to be loved more than a baba!

23 Month Update

Well, Andrew is full of vim and vinegar--like any almost 2 year old is :)

  • He says egg, light, fish, iso (oso), go (car), I? (for every letter and number he sees), wawa (agua), gracias, ya (stop), goggit (chocolate), jo jo (choo choo), bye bye, do (he says this every time he says bye. I don't know who/what do is), hi, cheese, baba, baby (for any child--they could be a newborn up to 6 years old), nigh night, do (george, Curious George)
  • He likes to be the ring leader at Nursery. He will start to scream or nod his head and the other kids will copy him
  • He does a really good job at picking up his toys at night
  • He went to the dentist last week and had a great check-up (a little traumatizing, but he got over it)
  • He will still fold his arms for prayer
  • Every time I ask him who should say the prayer, he says "Dada", even when dada is not there
  • He LOVES playing outside!
  • He is a great helper at the grocery store. He will put things on the belt and then when you get home he will help you put the groceries away.
  • He will play with his bead toy and pretend it is a train and say "jo jo"
  • He still likes Curious George, but gets bored if they keep showing the same episode over and over again
  • He likes to play cars with his dad and will make sound effects
  • He still will not tell us when he has gone poop
  • He loves to play with his magnets--moving them from the fridge to the dishwasher to the recycling cans
  • He LOVES chocolate!!!
  • He loves to ride in the car carts at the supermarket
  • He is still drinking 3 bottles of milk during the day and then 4 ounces of water when he takes a nap or at night
  • He still loves his babies (his 2 bears)
  • He will still give all the sounds to a cat, dog, snake, duck, frog, cow, lion, bear
  • He will laugh out loud to things he sees on the television, even when he is by himself watching TV (much like his father does)
  • Calls outside "sno"
  • He is pretty good at Church and has started whispering when you whisper to him
  • He likes nursery, but not when other kids sit on my lap--he gets very jealous
