Mommy and Daddy can hardly believe you are two already! Where did this year go? You've grown quite a bit this year, especially upward! You are now almost 36 inches tall, which puts you over 5 inches taller than last year. Your weight hasn't changed much, so you are a long string bean.
This has been the year where you learned to run, jump and climb on everything you can. You are fearless, if it is climbable, well, you will try. And oh my, the bumps and falls, but they haven't slowed you down one bit. You are a very active little boy.
This year you learned your ABC's (you had no choice with a sister that loves them so...), to count to 12 (because of your fascination with clocks), all your animals and their adorable sounds, and finally your colors. For awhile Mommy was worried that you wouldn't learn your colors because everything was yellow. You did eventually figure it out.
You were an early speaker, which was great for us because you could communicate pretty well. It seems these days your favorite phrase is "I don't." Do you want some carrots? I don't. Do you want some oatmeal? I don't. Do you want some chicken? I don't. Do you want to help me clean up? I don't. Sometimes I just ask you if you want cookies to hear you say...I do. :)
It seems like your favorite activities are building legos, puzzles, play doh or playing outside. If I had to pick your favorite, it would probably be playing outside. You especially love Nana and Papa's yard because there is so much space (and grass) to run and play. One day we'll get grass too...
You are a very compassionate child, if sissy gets upset with something, you immediately are upset too. Since sissy doesn't like loud noises, you now do not like loud noises either. It is rather endearing to watch.
We love you Calvin! We love watching you learn and grow, we are so blessed that you are our son. We can't wait to see what God has in store for you this coming year. We praise God for you!!!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy, Sissy too
