Easton @ 22 months (2 days late)

Well, better late than never they say right?  Here is Easton with no 22 month sticker but at least it is just him.  As I am writing this he is 23 months old and very fast approaching his second birthday but were not going to talk any more about that (denial over here)! We’re just going to talk about Easton this past month.  I also do realize I have skipped his 21 month altogether and I last posted at 20 months. I am striking out left and right.  I don’t even want to say that in his short life I have already forgotten his birthday in my mind.  I really have to think about it and focus on not forgetting with it being shuffled in with holiday madness.  Everyone warned me but there was nothing I could do!

What has not changed for sure is the thumb sucking.

He could have gotten even more silly and outgoing! The hair has gotten more wild too.  He is going to look back and wonder why we didn't cut it or comb it?! Good question buddy! I think it is a combo of several different things.  I am afraid of chopping off those curls, I get too busy to brush (aghhh…yes I just wrote that) and we are sticking with the notion that it gives you character! You wear it well Bubbas.

I love how I caught him playing with his toes.  I think he was actually picking his toe nails but this doesn't happen too often at this age.  It reminded me of the baby days when they find there feet.  So sweet!

Being 2 is going to look very good on him! He is ready!  His squint nose face that we see very often when smiling.  Bradley did this too but E may have just mastered it!

Here he is laughing at Bradley after just getting over crying! Big brothers make it better and being the third isn’t all so bad.  I think he had unzipped himself and then was crying when he couldn’t get his arms out.

He loves him some french fries and he loves to say “french fry” too.  He asks for them daily! What he has been doing more of is not just saying new words but saying more small sentences.  He loves the tunnels at parks and he loves throwing and kicking balls and his one eyed frog he sleeps with.  He also loves his dinosaur pillow pet that he calls “donkey.” He can not go to sleep without these two stuffed animals now.  He is also into saying “Help” a lot in desperation when he really is fine.  Plea for attention I guess.  He also likes to buckle himself in his booster seat at the table and says “I buckle” after.  He also knows a few bad words and is wearing mommy thin on trying to get him to stop.  He knows a lot more and understands a lot more than we would like to admit. He is mischievous and even has lied already.  It is really hard at this age to tell if he is just throwing an answer at you and not completely understanding.  He gets in trouble anyways.  Like for example he said “no” to me when I asked him if he threw a toy at Bradley and then later when I asked him again he said “I throw toy.” He is strong willed like both his brothers and I have way too many A type personalities in this house!!! Just pray for me!

 

That is all I have for now until he is TWO on December 16th.
