August 2006
"What happened?"
"You Ok mom?"
"Ooookay" (in sad resigned voice)
"My teacher Miz Pop-lik"
Crazy hairpuller
Always wrestling and crawling on top of Alec.
The "mingo" (flamingo)
"Super Duper!"
"Oh, hold on!"
"I do, I do it"
I cut your beautiful hair. It was becoming like this golden ball of halo luff around your head and terribly unruly. A few snips and it is back to it's beautiful golden curls. I think all the comments you get on your hair are making you vain - you said "my hair booful" after I cut it.
"I want my mommy"
You had such a great time at Build a Bear! You were so into it and totally loving on your alligator. You did all the steps stuffed it, got a heart, jumped around, etc, brushed the gator and picked out a (what else) firefighter outfit for him. And you named him firefighter. It was just so cute.
Hate the way you scream NO when you are even offered something that you don't want. Enough!
You seem to think it is some sort of fun twisted game to yell and scream at bedtime and then when one of us goes in to ask for something - soemthing different each time. Resuce Hero, water, milk, new jammies, etc. Making me insane.
You are doing OK at school. You are a bit clingy and teary in the morning - today you kept pulling on my hand and saying "I go my house. Let's go this way (away from your classroom!)." So hard. But your teacher says you do fine once you are there and you are actually one of the quiet kids - oh just wait until you warm up! Look out!
Such funny dress up combinations - boots!
Rescue Hero conversations - to the rescue!
Polite
little manners -
Alec: Let's watch a show
Owen: Thank oo, Ah-kick!,
"Hey!"
"Hey! Put me down!"
"Don't make noise" (mumbling this to yourself while looking out the window)
Very polite with manners now - love when you sing song "You're wel - come!"
I can not stand how cute and cuddly you are. Too cute!
Paint your own pottery shop - not a good idea for a 2 year old! You wanted to take everything off the shelves and then you pitched a fit when we went to do your handprints - always an adventure with you my bun bun! (the currennt nickname du jour for both you and Alec),
