All I have to say is WOW time goes by so fast!! I just wanted to take some time today to show a little love to my youngest baby :)
Dear Will~
Happy 2nd birthday my sweet baby boy. I just love looking at your big blue eyes and big dimples :) I cannot believe it has been 2 years since we met you! I remember how excited I was when I realized at work that I needed to get to the hospital because you were coming. Since you are my second baby boy I was just so excited. I wasn't scared and I knew in general what to expect. I was just really looking forward to every little thing and I remember it much more clearly than the first time. You are the last baby I will have and I look so forward to growing with you every step of the way.
There is so much that has happened over the last 4 months! You graduated to a big boy bed and you do really well going to sleep. However, you do love to jar Daddy and I out of our sleep by banging on your bedroom door as hard as possible bright and early every morning!! Amazingly you don't seem to wake up Tyce too much by doing that but every once in a while you get him to reach the door knob and let you free. I wasn't sure if it was going to be a good idea having you boys share the same room, but for the most part I think it has been great and brought you closer to each other.You have been "talking" up a storm lately. Most of your words are probably only understood by me, Daddy, and Tyce but that's ok. The words that you say the most clearly are - Barney, Merlin, Elmo, Momma, Dada, Tyce, apple, blue, yellow, poop, book, shoes, hug, thank you, and night-night. You like to repeat people and just today you finally said your name "Willie" and "two" your new age!
You have decided that you like watching TV in the last few months. Your favorite shows are Barney, Mickey Mouse, and Dinosaur train. Although it is a nice break for Mommy and Daddy, you are a little obsessed :)
I have been really impressed with your eating habits. You are willing to try lots of new things. You don't really like to chew on veggies but if I blend them up in a soup or smoothie you will devour it. So maybe it is just a texture thing.
You are much more mischievous than Tyce ever was. You will stare me down to try and get your way. I can see those wheels turning in your head constantly and you have everyone fooled that you are so innocent. I love it when your legs start running away as fast you can when you think you can hide what you have in your hands.
I finally brought myself to cut your hair a little bit so it was out of your eyes and shorter in the back. I don't need you getting teased for having a mullet. But Daddy and I both agree that your hair is you in a nutshell, wild and crazy with a little bit of cuteness, so it may be a while before you get a new doo. Hopefully you won't hate us for it later :)
Love you Willie!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy
P.S. You really don't need to buy into that whole terrible twos thing...ok?
