Wren is Twenty-One Months Old!

Wren recently had a growth spurt. By "growth spurt" I mean one day he had several pairs of pants that fit okay, and the very next day only three pair remained. Two pairs of nice pants, and one pair of play pants. Holy moly! Thank goodness for hand-me-downs! In these photos he is wearing a 2T shirt and 3T pants!!! He didn't outgrow his pants in the waist (he has, in fact, lost a little weight). The issue was with the rise and length. He gained some height!

His words increase every day, as does his ability to use them accordingly (rather than being a little mocking bird). Example: I tell Wren that I love him and rather than responding with "I love you" he says "Thank you" and gives me a kiss. He recently added "Yellkum" to his polite vernacular. "Please" is still tricky, though. Must be the "pl" formation.

He STILL loves to play ball and read books like crazy. He recently formed an interest in trucks and airplanes. He points out every single truck and airplane each day. Every single one. If he's in his room playing and hears a truck go by on the street, he'll ask: "Guck?"

We're still trying to expand his diet, but he is oddly finicky. If he doesn't like the way something looks, he won't even touch it.

So far so good, though. He continues to be a joy everyday. :-)

Summer.

Summer really did arrive this week: sunshine and 70s. I can't believe it... we've been unseasonably cold for so long.

It's been fun playing outside everyday for hours with Wren.

We pulled his pool out of the garage; and although he does not swim every day, he is most certainly using it daily.

He recently discovered how to make mud...
