March 17- big day

March 17th marked a big day in 2 ways- first it was St. Patrick's Day- and yes these kiddos have some Irish in them so we wore green to mark the occassion. March 17 also marked B's 21-month-day- aka, he is 1 and 3/4 years old!

So we tried to take some pictures in Green- however a certain little boy refused to wear not only the leprechaun hat, but also his pants. We also did the monkey pictures with B to compare how he has grown!


St Patty's Day-

Cutest Leprechauns




I love this picture for some reason


First he took her paci out, then tried to put it back in



This is just funny


Evidence that he loves holding her hand/ touching her fingers






I asked him to wear the hat, he decided to put it on her- she was not happy






B's 1 3/4 year birthday!!!
He is such a ham. He just climbed onto the chair and started grinning like a fool.
















At 21 months B is doing so much. He still is not talking all that much, but he learns words all the time and is starting to use them. You can tell he is shy about it. He says please (pees) and thank you (gank) appropriately now. It is adorable- the worst though is when he wants something he can't have (like to run around with a fork) and is yelling please, please, please at you. He seems so confused about why he isn't getting what he wants when he says please.
He rocks Ivy, will do this little piggie to her, pushes her rocker around, shoves pacifiers in her face, takes them away, and loves to hold her hand.
He loves wearing big shoes- he tap dances in Eric's work shoes every night, it is hysterical.
He knows how to get to gymboree and runs up the street yelling boree, boree, boree on the way.
He is starting to play with other kids, not just next to them.
He can sometimes catch a ball
Favorite things are balls, umbrellas, etc.
He will stand in an empty shower and fake wash his hair, body, and hands.
He dances along & does the appropriate movements to songs (itsy bitsy, twinkle twinkle, wheels of the bus, etc)
He loves to help- he will grab you a towel while in the shower, will help 'wash' you with a poof, will sweep, will use tissues to wipe your nose, etc
(I will be adding to this list= too tired to think right now)

Miss Ivy








Eric also took B to the Harlem Globetrotter's last weekend with Popop Jim. B had a blast- didn't give it his full attention but definitely thought it was cool (as he does all things basketball) and had fun running around.
