2!!

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once and a while..you could miss it."


- Ferris Bueller (favorite movie ever!)





Our little man is 2! I can't believe it...
2 years ago today,  I stared in wonder at the miracle we created...
Today, I still pinch  myself every day...marveling at how amazing this little boy is!



I still can't believe how much Xavier has grown in just the last 2 months...let alone 2 years. I swear I have a 4 year old in a 2 year old's body. He talks like CRAZY...I have complete conversations with the kid. 

He says "Thomas" now instead of "Na Na"...

and "water" instead of "wa wa"

He sings his ABCs and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

He blows bubbles all by himself!


He gets time outs and says  "Sorry Mommy" when they are done. He tells me, "Listen to Mommy" when I ask why he's sorry.

He loves treats like ice cream and cookies...but eats kale chips and veggie//fruit smoothies.

He loves his little brother and says "Night Xander, love you!" each night.

He goes to sleep saying, "Love you Mommy...Love you Daddy" and wakes us up by saying, "Mommy...out?"

I am so blown away each and every day by this amazing little boy. He is interested in so many things, and when he starts something new, he flies into it at 300 miles/hr! 100% ALL IN...just like his Daddy.


Here are some of his favorite things...

Drawing, Drawing, Drawing
He draws circles and lines very well now...and scribbles like crazy too.


Paint - a couple days ago, we started painting...now, it's morning, noon, and night. ;)


X is a great helper! He helps me unload the groceries, sweeps and wipes the floor, and here he is helping his Mema cook.


TRAINS! Thomas the Train is huge around here. We make new tracks every day.


Going to the beach!  X loves the water!


Walkin' - We go on walks every day...usually in the double stroller. When Mema visited, he got used to nightly walks around the blocks.


Lounging...sometimes, X just likes to kick back and relax. :)


Sesame Street - In addition to the Wiggles (who X LOVES!!!), Xavier really likes Sesame Street breaks.


Gardening - X loves picking our tomatoes and playing in the yard. We hunt for lizards every day.

Our little baby is growing up...and I am so proud of who he is becoming!


Happy Birthday to our sweet Xavier!!!
