Dislikes: Getting your diaper changed, brushing your teeth, waiting for your food when he you're hungry, getting in and out of the car seat (still sitting rear facing).

Other Random Things:

• You are obsessed with crackers.  You usually wake up saying crackers and ask for them just about all day long.  At church, the nursery workers say they have to just cut you off because you would literally eat them all day long. 
• You got in trouble for the first time at school last week.  You were pushing and head-butting your friends.  Ah-Oh.  Looks like the terrible two's are already upon us. 
• You love to look at "dictionary books" with us. We can tell you to point to so many things and you know just where they are. You can also say what alot of the pictures are.  Smart boy!!
• You seriously amaze us when you do puzzles.  You can do them so fast and you know exactly where each piece go in a matter of seconds.  It's crazy to watch you. 
• When you were 18 months old we took away your paci outside of the crib.  You have done just fine and I think this month I am going to go ahead and take it away before you get too attached. 
• You are obsesssed with this Steering Wheel garage sale toy that I got for you and put under the Christmas tree.  You play with it every single day for atleast 30 minutes. 
• You have a shape puzzle that you love to do. You think the square is a cracker and the yellow circle is a moon.  Silly boy!!

Look how you've changed....
