Happy 2nd birthday little man

Gus is two!  I cannot believe it.  Gus is always entertaining us with his goofy faces and all of the things a future class clown would do.

• He is exploding with words (my favorite word is cookie, Gus calls them eee-coos).  He is speaking in sentences and when you ask him his name, he says  "Gussy!".
• He loves going to grandmas house, playing outside, swimming, wee-ooos, tractors, trains, anything and everything that a boy would love, he does.
•  He loves milk and like his cousin Isla is a fruit, veggie, and carb eater.  Meat is a bigger problem.
•  He continues to be a good sleeper, going to bed around 8:15 and getting up at 6:45.  He takes about a three hour nap in the afternoons as well.
• He has started to sing and likes to sing baby beluga and happy birthday and will blow out the candles every time (spit)
• Loves his baby beluga
• Next big transition will be a big boy bed.  He doesn't climb out of the crib so I am trying to hold off until Christmas break.  If I have a loss of sleep, it will make it easier.  After that, potty training will be the next adventure.
• He always wants free rides down the stairs and will jump into my arms from the fourth step to the landing.
• Always wants to do what the big kids do.  We got out the slip-n- slide earlier this summer and Gus wanted nothing to do with it. A couple of weeks ago Addison and savannah were playing on it and Gus decided that he wanted to as well and he had a great time.
• He just started riding with Addison in her princess mustang
• Grammy and papa combine bought him a battery operated toothbrush that he thinks is pretty great.

All about Addison

Happy 5th birthday, my beautiful baby girl!  We have been through a lot of challenges, trying times and successes with you but we wouldn't change anything.  You are a sweet, empathetic, and genuine little girl who loves to perform, laugh, and have fun.  You never want the fun times to end and when they do, you are sad.  Here are some things that have happened to you in the last year.

• Completed first year of preschool.  You loved Mrs. Whiteman and Mrs. Myers.  You were good friends with Kadence, Addisyn Reed, and Riley.  You love school!  
• Went on a trip on a train to Chicago. We saw the aquarium and the children's museum.  
• At the beginning of the summer, you were very apprehensive about swimming and the pool.  It took you almost all summer to venture away from the side.  
• You started your second year of preschool last Wednesday, and like it so far! 
• You got a princess mustang from mom, dad, Grammy and papa combine last weekend. So far, you are a pretty good driver.
• We sold your first childhood home, the one we brought you home to. 
• You love your new room in our new house.  You also love Savannah, who lives next door!
• You can and will try to make friends in all places, including public restrooms.  You will talk to any little girl that you see and introduce yourself.
