2 Years: Super Mommy

Hey little monkey,

Last couple days you've been under the weather, sadly, but luckily for you Mommy has been amazing at taking care of you. As a matter of fact right now she's out with you on your "bike" at Pearl Street where you love to go to the toy store, climb on marble animals and basically run around nonstop whenever you see a clearing to do so.

You've gotten so quick too! I wonder if you'll use that quickness in sports in the future? Speedy pointguard, sly midfielder in soccer, who knows? Anyways, back to your Mommy. I can't tell you how lucky we BOTH are that's she's in our lives because she does much for us that I hope when you get older you treat her with the respect she deserves not just for being your mother but for caring so much about you she won't bring you to daycare for two straight days and take you out to play instead.

Oh funny thing I got to tell you. This morning I woke up early and decided to go for a run, haven't run in while. So I'm running along the creek path, it's pitch dark at some parts so I decided to run on the sidewalk down to Pearl Street, where you are now, and guess what I saw while running? A deer just walking around Pearl Street, besides me and the deer there weren't many other people (just street cleaners) and it was so eerie in a kind of nice way. That's what is great about Boulder, we live in the environment with nature, that while we don't always see is always around us. Well gotta run, hope you I know I love you little guy. Think I see you and Mommy in the window!

2 years: Sleep sleep

Good evening little O :)

You're sound asleep at the moment. Daddy is at our neighbor's place babysitting their little son, Joshua. Well, Joshua is sleeping so Daddy is just hanging out there in case he gets up. Very nice of Daddy. Things are starting to settle even more these days. We're finding our rhythm. You're loving school. You run and gallop over to school in the morning. It's so nice to be able to walk you over and then as soon as we get there you've been saying "bye bye Mommy!" so excited to start your day. Everyone is so happy that you're back at school and teachers keep coming up to me saying that they're so excited that you've returned. People love you little O! One interesting thing that you've learned at school has been the phrase "Go away!". We were a bit shocked when you said it as we never say that so you must have learned it at school. Every day now you say Go away! Go away! and then we make pretend we're crying and you say "I'm sorry" but then you say it again a little bit later. Ahhh!! Anyhoo, I love you my little snookie bear. Looking forward to hanging out with you all this weekend. Mwah!

2 years: Picture post

What you've been up to...


This is your old school



The Toddler building



You were part of the penguins!



Your little cubby



Your classroom



They built this huge practice bubble in our back yard...it'll be up until April...yikes!



It really freaks me out for some reason



We took you to a new park today (so many parks here!) You liked it but were a bit sleepy so we only played for a bit



Mama loves the swings



Then we went to an apple orchard so we could get some cider donuts...here you are eating one!



And Daddy eating his



Then we got to go on a hayride around the orchard



So much fun



You really liked it



Looking at the horsies



And the chickens



These horses were so huge



You wanted to touch them I think



A bit scary though



Your parentals



When we got home it was dark and cold but you wanted to play at the park behind our apartment so we played for a little bit. Here is Benicio playing with us



You'd live in a park if you could
