He just makes me smile. Period. He is so smiley, happy, has a sparkle in his eyes, loves to giggle and loves to do things to make us laugh. Smiling is just an automatic reaction of mine when I look at his pictures. I LOVE him. ADORE him.
He's been changing so much since he's turned two.
1. He is talking more by stringing words together. For example, "move mommy" is said a lot in this house if I am in his way. :) A few weeks ago, Chris happened to be standing by us as Brady and I had a full conversation for a couple of minutes. Chris started laughing because he said he really didn't understand anything Brady said, but I did and we carried on the conversation. :)
2. He has this song that he sings consistently, for at least a few months now. Well, he's incorporated the names of everyone he can say into the song now. It's hilarious! It goes something like "Oh Mean (Lightening McQueen), Oh tow truck (Mater), Oh Buzz, Oh Wee Wee (Woody), Oh Daddy, Oh Mommy, Oh Drake, Oh Papa." And then he stops. I need to get this on video.
3. When he wants us to sit and play, he pats the floor next to him and says "sit Mommy" or "sit Daddy". Again, probably only cute to me, but it is.
4. When the light is in his eyes, or he cries and then has tears, he starts to whine "eyes mommy, eyes" in this sad little whiny voice. Again, kinda funny to me!
5. He no longer rubs my arm when he is tired or falling asleep. I miss it, but understand because how would it be possible to rub my arm when you have your tow truck, Lightening McQueen car, and whatever toys you can fit in your arms as you are rocking to sleep? He is always carrying cars and toys around. My parents say he gets that from me, because I did that all the time when I was little. When I tell him it's time for bed, he will literally go around and collect his toys to bring up to rock with.
6. After the holidays, his sleep schedule changed. He started sleeping in until 8/9am and then no nap, but going to bed around 8ish. Now he has slowly gotten back to being up around 6:15, we do an early nap and I try and make sure he is up by 3/3:30 and then to bed around 8/8:30. I've decided that I definitely like his early schedule better.
7. He is so good about matching or associating like/similar items. For example, he would see a snowman, and then point to all the other ones he could see.
8. He loves the twin baby girls I baby-sit. He gives them lots of kisses, loves to help put their paci's in or throw their diapers away and will sometimes even share his toys with them by putting a car or truck on their tummies. He loves them.
9. I had the sweetest moment with him over Christmas. We laid down to go to bed and we were facing each other. He put his hand on my cheek, kissed my lips, closed his eyes and fell asleep with his hand on my cheek. I can't even describe the feeling I had at that moment.
10. He really does love to make us laugh. He fakes snoring, so when I go in to get him from his crib, he'll lay back down and start snoring. And giggling. He's so funny. He also refers to himself as "You". For example, I'll ask 'who made this mess Brady?' and he'll point to himself, smile and say "You"!! It's hilarious. Again, I think everything he does is so funny though because I am completely enamored by him.
