Now that he is 2...

It is still hard for me to believe that Connor is already 2!  Ever since he has started to sleep in his new bed he has seemed even older to me.  I have been extremely pleased with how easy that transition was.  After the first nap he has never tried to get out of his bed.  Every night I still tell him how proud I am of him and his little face just lights up.  He loves being a big boy!

2 Year Stats

Weight- 37 1/2 lbs

Height- 37 1/2 inches

• Connor is still constantly laughing (sometimes fake laughing) or being silly.  He loves for other people to laugh with him and will try to figure out new ways to make you laugh.

"Momma I smile... take picture!"

• Here are some of the funny/common things I have heard him say lately:

"Easy does it!"

"Yay!  Connor did it!"

"There... all better...(then wipes his hands off)"

"Chugga Chugga... Choo Choo" (or any other sound he thinks a train might make)

(While sitting at the dinner table we asked him 'Is Daddy your best friend?')  "Daddy my best friend in the whole world!"

He recently started on his own pretending to talk to fictional characters on the phone "Hellwo.... oh hi Max & Ruby!" (Max and Ruby are two bunnies from one of his favorite shows)

We have no idea where he comes up with all of this, but it is so fun to listen to his vocabulary expand.  

• He is also really into role playing.  He wants us to switch roles while we are playing and will recite word for word things I tell him.  It is so funny!
• Still LOVES Thomas the Train.  He spends the majority of his time playing with trains every day.  
• Right after he turned two we had a few weeks where he seemed to test every limit there was.  He is definitely still learning, but I think he is finally starting to understand that his life is a lot easier when he does what Momma and Daddy ask him to do. :)  
• Still will eat almost anything and has switched to 2% milk.  He loves PB& J and usually starts asking for one around lunch time.

• Decided he was too big for the high chair and officially uses a booster seat now.  One day at lunch he told me "Momma, no high chair.  I big boy.  I sit riiiiiight here." and that was the end of his high chair days.
• Connor also loves to sing songs and "read" books.  He has several songs and books mostly memorized that he enjoys sharing with us.  Some of you may have seen this video already, but I wanted to make sure I had it on my blog as well.  I am still working on getting him to read one of his favorite books on video, but those of you with toddlers know it is almost impossible to make them do something on video! :)

I promise to put up more pictures (and less words) soon, but these are some fun milestones that I did not want to forget. :)
