Porter--2 years old!

Porter is becoming such a "big boy" and not a baby anymore!

Here are some of the things he's doing and some favorite's:

• talking up a storm and adding new words daily--he seems to be talking so much more just in the last two weeks
• knows all his animals, body parts, etc.
• is starting to potty train
• loves mickey mouse (and mickey mouse clubhouse--we have to watch it daily!)
• LOVES to be outside, and would stay out there all day long
• loves his daddy--and pretty much only wants mommy when she's not there! he wakes up asking for "daadee"
• still sleeps with green blankie but not as attached to it as he once was...he'll still occasionally ask for it but it's usually when he's tired
• loves eating meat now (steak, chicken, seafood) he LOVES him some steak!
• tantrums seem to be getting less
• loves to give kisses now
• loves playing with other kids
• is not shy at all, and will talk to anyone!
• warms up to all people fast
• loves to dance
• still a fan of barney--ugh! we've tried to turn him on to other stuff ;)
• does NOT like to be held
• does like to be read to, and loves his books
• can tell you he's "two" but still working on holding up two fingers--usually we hold up three!
• uses his spoon/fork to eat
• loves eggs and grits for breakfast
• likes his "nacks"--snacks!
• sleeps alot (12-13 hours a night)
• doesn't take a nap everyday but when he does, they're long (3-4hours)
• loves to swim and play in the water
• likes babies!
• says "lub u, mama, daddy, etc." (love you mama--so sweet when he says it)
• talks himself to sleep, saying goodnight to everyone! (mama, daddy, mimi, pop, kensi, matt, liz, mickey, nana, papa, coco, etc....he goes through a long list of "nite-nite's")
• and so much more that I'm sure I'm forgetting--he's so much fun!!
