23 months old

Henry, you are growing up so fast! You are using the potty chair at least once a day, you tell me when you need to go (sometimes), you are sleeping in a big boy bed, and your 18 month shirts are almost too small for you. You are talking all the time. We counted, and you are able to say at least 100 words. You love pointing at pictures and naming all the things you see. Right now you love to point out when someone in a book is eating. You can almost blow your nose and when you do you say "boogers out". I usually give you a few choices of what to eat for breakfast or lunch. I'll say "do you want...." and you usually say "no" but by the third option you shake your head up and down. The other day you said "no" to everything so I asked you if you wanted to eat a car for lunch...you paused and then started laughing. You have the best sense of humor. You are now saying "yes"...it sounds like a combination of the ice and a esh . You love to put coins into your piggy bank. You also like to take them out. You are learning to count and it sounds like you are able to make it up to number 5. You are also learning some of your letters: I, O, M, H, A, B, and U. You want to play football everyday. You throw the ball to one of us and then run. We take the ball and hand it to you while you keep running. Then you sometimes just fall down like the big players do. You love to draw and color and are very good at coloring on the paper only. You also now like to put stickers on paper. You still insist that doors and cupboards are closed and you help put your toys away when I ask for your help. When you see that one of the cupboard bands are off, the ones we use to keep you OUT of the cupboards, you fix it so it can't be opened.
You child proof yourself! : )
You have started singing with me once in awhile. Your voice is sweet. You are making so many connections (when you see a duck, you say water).
We love to watch you learn, and we love you very much! Happy 23!
