{Austin 25 Months}

Dear Austin,

I still can't believe that my baby is two. Time goes so fast when you are having fun!

Since we have been home from SD you have been talking more and more. Talking all the time. You say at least one new word a day, and we have Gavin to thank for that. He teaches you so many words, and you love to make him happy! You started your "speech school" last week, but I am pretty sure you will not need it long. Joyce, the therapist, said you are doing great, and she is already impressed with how many words you know. We are still working on getting you to say them when you want them, to avoid lots of frustrations. Gavin and I are there along with you, and we just play. We are learning new tricks to help you talk. So far, you are a complete show off for Joyce. You are even saying two words together when she asks. I guess what we are learning is that ultimately, you will talk when you are ready.

You continue to be off and on with potty training. If we are home and you are naked, BOOM, you are trained. When we go out, and put a diaper on, you forget. Who can blame you? Not pushing anything these days. 

You are completely out of your 18mo-2T clothes. I just donated a HUGE bag of them, as you are now in 2T-3T. Oh, and since you are so tall, you can't fit in 3T footed PJ's anymore! Too tall! Your toes have t curl at the bottom! Thankfully its warm out now, so we could give those away.

You are loving to read the same 4 books before nap and before bed. A book about trains, play, boy parts, and Maisy colors. We need to read them in order, and you have to have "Baba Bakie" (Bottle and blankie) Yes, you still take a bottle before bed, and its time to do away with that! (When you can hold it and say it, its time to get rid of it!) My plan is to get rid of baba before all our travels coming up!

Austin you are such a happy, loud, wild, loving, smart, and daring little boy. NEVER do you fail to surprise us, and NEVER can we take our eyes off of you! You think you are already four years old!

Love you!

Mamma
