Andrew George {24 Months}

TWO
Just like that ... our little man is sleeping away right now, and will wake up a TWO year old...
Well, not exactly until 7:45pm I believe...but we're not getting technical.

At TWO...
Andrew is speaking so so many words... We can understand most things, and lately.. grouping two words together has been his new habit, which we appreciate, in an effort to decode his language ...
 
He can count to 10 all by himself
He knows most of his ABC's.. and we have an alphabet on our wall in the family room, he'll look at it whenever he is watching TV, or sees a letter on a book, or on a video.. and he'll run over to the alphabet "wall" and point to that letter and say it.
 
Loves:
His sister
Bacon, Juice, Milk, Chips, Bugles, Strawberries
Animals - especially kee kees ... or kitty cats
He loves his stuffed Kee Kee.. and Debbie (blanket)- he always knows where they both are, and wont go in his crib without them...
Water... We have a Y membership for the winter... and he LOVES going to the Pool. We went tonight, and he is fearless... and he stayed in the water for over an hour .. and had to be coaxed out.
Helicopters, Planes, Trains, Cars, Buses, Garbage Trucks, Tractors, Haulers... Yep, he's a real mans man. haha....
Vacuuming... He loves using his toy vacuums.. he has about 3...
and he loves when we let him use the real one.. 

He doesn't eat quite like his sister did at this age..
He is a very very very picky eater.. Some days are better than others. We have to constantly put food in his mouth, or in front of him, otherwise I think he'd just drink Juice and Milk all day..
 
He is hysterical
He constantly has us laughing.
Instead of saying Yes. to certain questions.. he responds "OK"... in the tiniest little baby boy voice that melts my heart EVERY.SINGLE.DAY....
 
Why didn't anyone tell me that little boys were SO SO SWEET!??
Its a good thing you're so damn cute.. and funny.
 
SLEEP:
Still in your crib.
Not through the night... I'll just leave it at that.. this is a happy post, right? Celebrating our blessed 2 years with this beautiful child? Ok then.. 
PLAY:
You play extremely well by yourself these days..

Super creative, and hysterical (again)

One of the cutest things you do.. is play with your cars, while laying on your belly.
You'll push them around and it looks as though there are so many thoughts turning in your imagination. You sometimes make car sounds, or talk gibberish ... and I love watching you 
TV:
Your favorite is Max and Ruby these days
Little Einsteins
Sophia the First (because your sister gives you no choice.. but you actually like it too!)
Toy Story

 Andrew loves power tools, kitchen tools, pianos, noisemakers.. very very interested in machinery and technology.

His formal stats will follow, but he hasn't been to his 2 year check up yet.
Knock on wood he's been pretty healthy... a nice change from all the visits to the ER, ENT & Peds last year..
We love you little man.
You make our family complete and we couldn't have asked for a sweeter boy.
Happy TWO to YOU!
