Getting Bigger Every Day!

We had more "big boy" moments this week that I had to share.

First, despite the fact that we are 2 months away from his 2nd birthday, we flipped his car seat around to face forward. His legs had gotten so long after a recent growth spurt that he was all cramped up again the back seat. The first time I sat him in it, he was not happy. He is a major creature of habit and he knew that it wasn't right and wanted it fixed. A new Mickey app on the iPad helped distract him long enough to get bucked in and head towards home. Now I fight him wanting to get out of the seat and come up front with me every day. He thinks he should be able to come up front and play with the radio that he can now see. But he also can now see all the big trucks and loves being able to do that!



The next big step actually started at Nan and Poppy's while we were gone on vacation. In the past he has been obsessed with having his bath ring in the tub during bath time. So much so that if we didn't have it, he wouldn't sit in the tub, he would just squat. However now he has decided it is pretty cool to be able to move around in the tub and "swim" on his belly.





And of course he is very much in the "monkey see, monkey do" phase especially with Reagan. He even had to have his water in the same cup as her at dinner the other night. So he has decided he should brush his teeth now. This started about 2 weeks ago but I got some really cute pictures Tuesday night. First of him after bath time while Reagan was at practice and then later when he had to brush again because she was. You may notice that he is in different pajamas even though it was the same night but he had spilled water on himself and had to change.
Pulled the stool over to the sink, looked at me, smiled and said "brush teeth".
I guess he has heard us telling Reagan to "brush teeth, brush hair" too many times...
"Am I doing it right sissy?"
