Sweet William is Two!

It is so hard to believe that our little man is two! He brings so much joy and laughter to our life (and some pain....you know the terrible twos...). William talks non-stop (kind of like his Mom) and says the funniest things! He loves to tell me no... a lot! He can say his ABC's and can count to ten. He loves firetrucks, tractors, trains and any toy that makes noise. He would live outside if I let him. He loves to swing. He could sit in a swing for hours... and has for that matter.

William loves to sing. We have music class every Wednesday and he gets so much out of it. We listen to the music in the car and he sings along with the songs...it is so sweet! He also loves books! Right now his favorite books are The Potty Book for Boys and Chicka Chicka ABC....we read them no less than 5 times each at nap time and bed time.

William is now sleeping in a big boy bed...well toddler bed. His parents are too cheap to buy a twin bed right now since we just bought a house!! He thinks he is big stuff! We have had a few challenges with our new found freedom....he gets out of bed all the time! Finally we got smart and locked him in his room. He cries for a few minutes and then gives up and sings or talks until he is ready to go the bed. Yes, we do open the door once he is asleep....we are not completely mean parents!! He also enjoys taking his fire truck or tractor to bed with him. He sleeps with several animals in his bed and if you try to remove them he will promptly get out of bed and retrieve them.

Sweet dreams

We celebrated his second birthday at Little Gym...he was in heaven! From the minute we arrived to the minute we left he was running around. Everyone (parents included) had a great time. Here are a few pictures from the big event.

Pizza and cake....YUM!!
