Trace is 2

How did you go from 0 to 2 so fast! Everything about you my little friend is fast! You have accomplished all milestones early and I am beside myself that we are celebrating your 2nd birthday! You are my stubborn little tornado! We are learning everyday how manage you. You can be super sweet and kind one minute and quite the stinker the next. You certainly have your pre-school teachers fooled! You are spoiled by all of the teachers. You are incredibly intelligent and I think that’s where a lot of frustration comes from. You know exactly what you want, but just can’t communicate it all the time.

Your Stats:

• Weight: 27.1 lbs (33%)
• Height: (11%)
• Diaper: Size 4 (working really hard on potty training!)
• Motor Skills: You have exceeded most kids your age! You can jump with both feet off the ground, skip, kick, throw and aim accurately!
• You can get yourself dressed most of the time
• You have a large vocabulary which should become more and more clear as you get older. (Dr. Ingraham was very impressed)
• You love to sing the ABC’s and can anticipate a few of the letters
• You can count to 5 assisted
• You are starting to recognize your colors when asked
• You know everyone’s name
• You are right handed
• Love to color
• Love to sing (you hum all day long)
• Favorite phrase right now “You mean <insert name>”
• You think all animals make the growling sound except for elephants and monkeys (even Santa growls…)
• You still love sports of all kinds. You watch endless amounts of football, baseball & golf with your Dad
• You love your new scooter (but you call it a bike)
• You can drive Trenton’s power wheel tractor like a 5 year old!
• You are difficult to get to sleep and you hate to nap
• Right now all loud noises scare you (including 18 wheelers while we are stuck in traffic)
• We thought seeing the shuttle fly by would be a cool experience when in reality it tortured you.
• You love hot wheels and all cars for that matter. You take them everywhere
• You are all boy

Love at first sight!
