I just cannot believe my baby is two. Everybody tells you it goes fast and yet it still surprises me. So what's William like at two years old?
- He's talking in 3-4 word phrases. Popular ones include "I did it!," "I hold it," and "I no want to."
- He loves all things Thomas. He is also obsessed with pointing out every single digger and dump truck we pass, and has just discovered the "digger driver." I think it's safe to say he knows what he wants to be when he grows up.
- He loves to be outside. He is Mr. Independent at the park, running around with the kids, playing in the sandbox, kicking a ball. He loves to be in the middle of all the action.
- I'm afraid to say it and jinx myself, but he is remarkably sweet, happy, and easy to please. We all genuinely enjoy having him around. I love having him all to myself the three mornings a week that Caroline is at preschool. He is truly such a joy in our lives.
- On the other hand, he has thrown some MAJOR inexplicable fits lately. Boy is it frustrating.
- He hates circle time at his little gym class. Unlike his big sister who breathlessly watched every move her teacher made at this age, William wants nothing to do with participating. He just wants to run and play.
- Also unlike the Big Sister, he wants absolutely nothing to do with the potty. All Caroline wanted for her 2nd birthday was big girl underwear; William will not even tolerate the thought of sitting on the potty. Fine by me - I have no desire to potty train any time soon. :)
- He loves his friends. Particularly the kids his age or the big boys a year or so older. And he follows "Sissy" around like a little puppy and will do just about anything she tells him to.
- He hasn't seen much tv, but he loves Curious George and the Thomas show. His favorite songs (this week) are Itsy Bitsy Spider and 5 Monkeys Jumping on the Bed. He adores Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and any book about trucks.
- He is a total mama's boy, but absolutely adores his Daddy. He is very snugly, but has already started telling me "no kissies." Sniff.
-He is our sweet baby boy, and I'm not letting him grow up no matter what the calendar says. I love you with all of my heart, little man.

happy birthday, william! he sounds like a fun kid. :)
That sounds a lot like Jacob when he was two. He went throw a phase where he did not want any affection at all and now has come back to snuggling up to me and wanting kisses and such from his mama. Just something to look forward to with William! It will come back.
I wish I spent more time with that boy! Sounds like he and Hayden would have blast together. . . they will have a great week this summer with their diggers and trucks on the beach. Miss you guys! Give that boy a hug for us (and if you can manage to sneak in a kiss, that too!) :-)
