Growing Up

I know it's silly to do a '26 month update' but.. here I am doing it. Deacon has started just this past week starting to say sentences. They are short sentences but I feel kind of amazed when he puts a few words together and I actually understand them. Anytime he hears a car/truck/bus pass the house he stops and says "I HEAR BU-BUS! HEAR BU-BUS!" He will say "I help" "Gus-gus, Sit!" "Mommy, Sit!" "I sit" "I go" "Dinosaurs, ROAR!!" "Dinosaur shirt." "Buzz blanket" "Night night, horsey,buzz,mommy,dada..etc" "Hi Fishy, shadow,gus..etc" "There it is!" "I did it!" and so on. He points to his face or mine or any toy's face and will name its body parts.. mostly just eyes, ears, "mose", mouth, eyebrows, toes. Today while buying strawberries at a little stand Deacon looked at them and said "STRAWBERRIES!" and i've never heard him say that before or even really tried to ask him to. The other day I was roaring like a dinosaur to Deacon and he looked in my eyes and leaned in and gave me a kiss haha! I couldn't stop smiling ;) This month we have been spending time with his cousin Dylan. His jealousy gets the best of him and it's the first glimpse i've seen of some Terrible Two's behavior! This past month he suffered a broken leg and some NASTY sores on his foot from the boot. It's healing up really nicely though! I feel like this seriously is the BEST age and GOSH do i love my boy. He is perfection!

Karen's potty training comment made my day. Awesome. I found "potty train in less than a day" only works in ideal circumstances (ex. your child wants to use the potty and is 100% dedicated to the task and 100% listening to you). Good luck!

Did you say Deacon broke his leg???

I haven't talked to you in forever! We need to change that. Deacon is saying so many cute things! I am amazed!
