Two years ago I triumphed over child birth by naturally (as naturally as you can with an IV of pitocin in my hand) bringing a little boy into the world. I recall laying on the bed with my new son on my skin crying and I told him how sorry I was that he had to come into this cold world (it was also a very cold room to me then). Two years later I am SO glad that he came to this world, cold, hot, or otherwise. We had a great little birthday party yesterday and he loved his new toys. He got a fire truck, a truck and trailer, as well as two puzzles from Grandma and Grandpa Kunz (thanks guys), and a beach ball from his cousins.
Today he had his 24 month check up and it was great. His weight is 26 lbs. 8 oz. that puts him above the 25th percentile (almost 30th). That is up from about the 12th percentile at his 18 month check up! His height is 35" which puts him closer to the 75th percentile. He's always been between the 50th and the 75th but now he's closer to the 75th. I am so impressed with how well his is growing!
(Kent says he gets his style from my side of the family. How rude!)
As to his loves right now he loves anything with wheels. Hence the title of this post. He especially loves trucks that have trailers to go with them. If it has a trailer it is his favorite! He also LOVES his daddy! Kent went to scout camp for a couple of days last week and the whole time he was gone all I heard about was his daddy. Even today at the doctor he cried for his dad when he didn't like something that was happening. There is a lot more that I could say about this little love in my life, but I think I'll let some pictures do the rest of the talking.
I had to throw this picture of slipin' slide fun with his cousins from the other dayWhen I get the rest of the birthday pictures from Cheryl I will post those too.
