Two Years + 5 Months

* Is so excited to learn. He can recognize all of his ABCs and numbers 1 - 10. He is getting better at distinguishing between his colors. We are trying to teach him 11-20 and shapes. * Will call us babe because that's what Devin and I call each other. *He found out that he's going to be a big brother. He knows that mama's baby is in her tummy and says he has a baby in his tummy too. * Says "help you" when he needs help with something. * Conversations with him normally go something like this. Z: Yo Gabbas, Me: No Gabbas, Z: Cue Cues, Me: No Blues Clues, Z: Aggas, Me: No Backyardigans, Z: Bonge Bob, Me: No Sponge Bob. Z: Dora, Me: No Dora. I think he's addicted to tv. He'll even start talking to other people about this and they have no clue what he is saying. * Is so stubborn about eating all food. Normally dinner time will involve a time out and then he'll decide that he wants to join us at the table to eat. * Loves to hide under blankets. He'll say "hide, hide" and then as soon as he is under the blankets, he says "I stuck" and then rolls around in circles. * Is getting better at feeding himself even though he makes a huge mess in the process. There is always food on the floor or on his chair, but I'm trying to be less OCD and controlling about it. He definitely knows what I'm thinking as he'll say "it's a mess" after he's done. * Talks about the scary lions all the time. *
