20 months


My big boy is 20 months tomorrow! He said his first 2-word sentence this morning: "bye daddy!" You could see his little wheels turning as he put the 2 words together! He said it a few times with a big smile on his face, like he knew he just did something really cool.

I always say Kyle is 20 months going on 3. He jumps in the bounce house with the big kids and does a great job, climbs like crazy and has great balance. He's really tough, but also loves a good cuddle with mommy or daddy. To my dismay, he thinks it's hilarious to wipe off every single one of my kisses, but does give up sweet kisses to mom & dad before bed.

He's been having a really hard time falling asleep at night, but once he's out, he's out. When he wakes up, he climbs out of his crib to come find us, so it's probably time to transition to a big boy toddler bed pretty soon. He has his escape method down so I'm not too concerned that he'll hurt himself, but if he can climb out then what's the point, right? He just seems so young to say farewell to the crib forever! I was hoping to make it to at least 2...

I love so much about my boy, but it really makes my heart smile to see the way he treats other people and animals. He's had his going-on-2-year-old moments where he doesn't want to share his stuff, but he's generally very sweet and gentle to his friends. He loves to hold hands and give hugs, and today he pet a goat very gently and helped wipe some hay off of his friend's pants when she stood up :)  I hope he holds on to that sweetness as he enters his crazy toddler years!

Happy 20 months to my big boy!
