Happy Birthday "TWO" Me! (and Uncle Ty-Ty)

It's my birthday!

December Babies


I have been saying Happy Birthday ALL day long!
I think I can get used to all the presents and cake.

-Today was Brooks's actual birthday. Yep...no more counting his age in months anymore! He is now 2 years old (not 24 months). Ugh....time keeps slipping away. Today was a wonderful day and he really understood that he is now "twoa". He shares his birthday with his Uncle Tyler and they had a blast hanging out today. Brooks continues to keep us laughing and smiling. He helps us remember that the simple things in life are what living is all about. One of his favorite things to do at our house is "hiding". He likes to put the blanket over his head and say, "I hiding". He pulls me underneath and drags Brutus in too! It is really something funny to see. He has gone pee 1x and poop 2x on potty! Of course he has not initiated it...but what a good start! He was so excited to flush it all away (again...the simple things in life...ha!). He loves to sing along to songs, dance, and be silly. He is also a great helper! He really enjoys helping me cook, clean, or do projects. He likes to do "big kid" things. Some of his favorite things to play with are balls, trains, play dough, books, blocks to name a few. He is putting 2-3 word phrases together....but still working on clarity. His favorite color is yellow. He is singing his ABC's and trying to count past 2 now...finally ;) He still eats a pretty good variety of food, but his favorites are mac and cheese, pizza, spaghetti, avocado, artichoke, and turkey. He can now go to 2 % milk and turn his car seat around (per doc). Yep...I'm one of those paranoid mom's when it comes to car safety. I still have him turned backwards! Precious cargo on board! It will be fun to see what he thinks of facing forward...a whole new world!
-Brooksy----you will always be our "baby" and can't believe that at 10:35 am, 2 years ago, you forever changed our lives for the better. We love you to the moon and back! Happy Birthday! luv, Mommy and Daddy xoxo
