time keeps passing.

too much catching up to do....i keep putting this off 'til i can get the photos on here but i'm gonna forget how fast stetson is changing. he will be 2 next month...can't believe it! he is still such a joy...such a fun age...unfortunately coincides with meltdowns. he is trying to say new words every day. it's so weird and awesome when they all of the sudden say a word you can understand. he sings ALOT. mainly twinkle, twinkle. he is a busy little bee to say the least. loves to play outside. loves to play with his legos...he's getting really good at building things. starting to get into coloring...he holds a crayon like an adult holds a pen and knows how to hold the paper so it won't move when he's scribbling. no more high chair. he wants to sit at the table like a big boy. no more laying down to drink his milk before naptime and bedtime...is getting really interested in books...he picks one or two out to read before bed. he no longer cries when we leave him in the nursery or with babysitters (there was a 3 or 4 month span where it was terrible). he gets bored more often at home...some mornings even while eating breakfast he starts saying "bye bye". but last spring/summer/fall he wasn't walking so we couldn't really go to parks and whatnot. looking forward to letting him run wild and play this year. we also go to discovery place on a regular basis to let him play in the "kidscience" room...he absolutely loves it! another cute moment...his easter basket is a horse and when he saw it easter morning, he kissed it on the nose! so precious! he loved getting a piece of candy out of each egg. he is so sweet, precious, funny, stubborn, strong-willed, busy, and delightful. it still rips my heart out every time i have to be away from him. we lost our 2nd little one 6 weeks ago and it helped my heart so much to have stetson around. it's hard not to be happy when you're with him (that is, unless he's pitching a fit). hoping for another little one to come our way soon.
