* um, this was written and I forgot to post it... hahaha!
Today is The Tot's birthday. He is 2 today! Knock me over, I'm in shock. It oddly crept up on me, mainly due to my busy work schedule and being about 7 months into a "high risk" pregnancy, which means a lot of doctors appointments and what not. But here we are, at two years old!
Our little Spud has really grown leaps and bounds over the past month or so... he is truly a little boy now, and not a baby, even though he will always be my baby. He talks up a storm, putting together little sentences! He sings a lot too, although he is not a chorus member and prefers the solo lifestyle. This morning he was singing Happy Birthday to himself on our walk to daycare, so I joined in, which was met with "NOO", so when I stopped singing, he continued. Doesn't he know I was once considered a "professional" singer? hahah, oh well.
He has been doing swimming lessons all summer and is doing amazing. He has always loved water, but the lessons were a bit scary at first, but now he loves it. Still isn't a huge fan of going completely under the water, but every class he gets better and better. We really enjoy the classes and so does he.
He and Noodles are still getting along. Noodles is a pretty good judge of when he is "not friendly" and she steers clear. Otherwise she loves bringing him toys so he can throw them to her... she tolerates his "kisses" and "hugs", which basically means he puts his face on her back and wraps he arms awkwardly around her. So, she just waits until it is all over with a worried look on her face, but she is good.
He has no idea that a new baby is on the way, although he points at my stomach and questions "belly?" as if he is concerned with the basketball style... We've tried to talk about Mommy having a baby, and him getting a baby brother, but I could tell him we were getting a monkey and it would make about as much sense. Now, if I told him Mommy was having a helicopter, well then that might be met with excitement!
