Two (plus) Year Old

Vincent turned 28 months old this week (that's something like, 2 and 1/3 years) . Wow! Time is flying by so quickly. I won't hide it, we are knee deep into the terrible twos with this kid. But, with all the challenges this age brings, he is still such an amazing, fantastic, joy in our lives. My mom-of-a-two-year-old mantra is, "He really is a great kid..."

And, let's see some of the great things about this kid!

Sitting up high on a bar stool without us having to stand right next to him to make sure he doesn't fall (although he did actually fall off last week & was totally fine). And, using a regular cup. He still mostly uses a sippy cup, since it's less of a mess.
Makes a joke by putting a mini bagel in his mouth to look like a big smile.
This morning, David let him mix eggs for breakfast. He actually whisked those eggs perfectly, in a circular motion, rather than just pushing them side to side like he had been doing just a couple weeks ago. And, when his right arm got tired, he switched to his left.
He loves books. We read A LOT to him. We're constantly amazed by the way he seems to memorize many of his favorites. This evening at bedtime, he practically recited the whole book, "This Is Paris" while I read it to him.
