Oh hey. G's 2 now!

This picture makes me laugh because Dan sooo deserved to be licked instead of kissed. MUWAHAHAHA.

Anyway, I'm going to try to list stuff that G's been up to

STATS: 24lbs 12oz -14%
               35.5inch -80%

At this point, Grayson will probably stay on his long/lean track.

• Bedtime: we put Grayson down at 8:00...but he really doesn't go to bed until 9 or 10. He gets up between 2 or 3 times to beg for "milk", "read a book"..he already starts the "delaying bedtime process"
• Has learned that if he bangs on his door enough he can knock the child handle off his door...SO annoying
• Words: he says a lot of them now. I was getting concerned, but around 20 months he really started to pick up saying everything. His FAVORITE line "Mommy MERE", "Doggy MERE" and dragging mommy and doggy everywhere.
• He's taking his last gymnastics class next week for the summer session. Dan and I are reviewing which class he'll attend in the fall. We're thinking of doing an evening class so that Dan can enjoy some time with Grayson.
• Pre-school - I had mentioned researching pre-schools awhile ago..well, the school I visited just didn't impress me that much...it was more of a "vibe" feeling then anything. I'm really glad I waited, though. First Kids Sports, where G takes his Gymnastics, is opening a pre-school program. They already have before and after school programs, so I'm really thrilled that they are starting a pre-school. The gymnastics teachers are SO great and with him going to sports there I feel like I won't have to transition him to something different. He'll at least be comfortable in the building. We'll most likely put him in full day Tuesday's and Thursdays (again, works out PERFECTLY since I work LITERALLY 2 mins away!) and he'll still go to miss Gina's on Mondays with his little sister.
• He is still showing more signs of being potty ready. The pediatrician made sure to let us know that it's OK to wait a bit longer - that's it's more important they are really READY, then to start forcing him when he isn't.
• Baths- he hates them. I feel like we've tried everything and it just gets worse. I'm wondering if he just hates to be clean...:)
• Teeth Cleaning - pediatrician said it was still a little early to take him to get his teeth cleaned. WHEW! I really don't want to have to deal with that yet...
• Favorite Foods - continue to be his fruits and veggies. Loves watermelon and cantaloupe.
• Dislikes - Bath, getting in his car seat, the grocery store, stroller unless he's tired, basically anything that prohibits movement, the vacuum and steam mop
• Likes - climbing (he doesn't really climb the kitchen table but has moved to the countertops which are way more annoying..), feeding the ducks at the park, remote control cars, finger painting, taking Brewsky for walks, jumping on trampoline, giving hugs and kisses, playing with his friends, feeding Brewsky treats
• Can point out most animals
• Can kind of count to 10..but skips numbers here and there
• Runs and Jumps easily

I'm sure there's more that I can list, but I can't think of it all now.
