Birthday!!

Happy Second Birthday, Andrew! You can...walk, jump, almost run, ride the dinosaur, make messes, and say "Mommy, Daddy, cookie, puh-ZEE (please), Na-ee (Natalee), Zah-Zah (Joshua), tzuck (truck), cow (car), bye, hi, do (two), Mama (Grandma & Grandpa interchangeably), guck-ooh (thank you), cack-ah (cracker)" among the many other words you are attempting these days. Your bright blue eyes and infectious laugh are so much fun! The way you suck your thumb and pull up your shirt to play with your belly button with your other hand when you're tired or waiting for supper to get on the table. Your temper tantrums. Crying when we clean you off after you make a mess at mealtimes. Looking at your truck book. Building towers with your lego. Playing with your BBQ. Trying to grab small animals. Copying your big brothers. Giving hugs & kisses by touching your head to ours. Group hugs with Mommy & Daddy. And finally, sleeping in your big boy bed!! The past two years sure have flown bye!
