Our little big man is two! Weighing in at 33.5 lbs and a yard tall, he is in the 95th percentile for both weight and height. A little about Will right now...he is our happy guy. He is becoming very verbal, repeating much of what we say throughout the day and suddenly saying words that I had no idea he knew. He's even using past tense correctly sometimes! He's also growing in his sense of responsibility...picking up his toys more and more, wiping up (some) spills he makes, and putting his dirty clothes in the laundry are some examples. He loves playing with trains and anything with wheels, and loves to point out trucks when we are out driving around. He also loves singing along to songs, including "Jesus Loves Me" during our nightly family worship time. He loves giving spontaneous kisses and at the same time is figuring out how to push his sisters' buttons. One of his favorite books is "
Brown Bear Brown Bear" by Bill Martin, Jr., so we had a Brown Bear, Brown Bear party and cake with cookies (thanks to my friend Regina). Enjoy the pictures! Phoebe's 2nd Birthday is
here, and Joanna's is
here.
Posing with his cake, cookies and book...
Thanks to Target, we had almost all the colors in the book on the table!
Super Simple party hats: print-outs of the animals stapled to a piece of construction paper folded in half...(for fun Brown Bear, Brown Bear activities, go to
this site.)
As Greg read the book, we each came in and sat down when our animal was read...the kids loved it!
To quote my Mom: "The eyes are so expressive!" I agree!
Gotta have a chalkboard involved somewhere!!
Red bird, red bird, what do you see? I see blessings, that's what I see!
Each of us picked a cookie to eat...Will chose white dog...
Happy boy!
Of course we went to see the brown bears at the zoo! They were very active, but so many people were watching I didn't get a good picture.
We love you, Will, and are so thankful for you!!!
