Our little James turned TWO this month, followed quickly by Elsa's 5 month birthday. James celebrated with an ice cream cake that he still talks about by pointing to the picture you see above and then pointing to his belly and smiling. He uses new words daily but his articulation is a bit lacking. Mom & Dad easily realize when he repeats a word he shouldn't (that he heard us say) but thankfully no one else understands him. He continues to be every bit of two, leaving us in stiches one minute, amazement another and frustrated yet again. His #1 love is still Daddy's tractor but tools, all 4 wheeled cars and bubbles play a close second. He is just shy of 3 feet(85/90 percentile) and weighs around 27lbs (20 percentile) although he wouldn't let go of Mom to sit on the scale. He can be coerced into doing just about anything for sweets (Daddy's sweet tooth for sure!) and thinks that juice boxes hung the moon. If only we could get him to sleep in past 6 in the morning!
Elsa had a big month as well, beginning solids and sitting by herself. She doesn't appear to love cereal as much as her big brother but she is already showing us she is tough little girl, surviving the constant tugging, pulling and bouncing inflicted on her with a gracious smile. As I write every month she continues to be our sweet mellow girl!
