Mr. Mischievous

Today our little A is 23 months! I can't believe how fast the time has gone by!! He's coming into his own these days - for better or worse - and it is so incredible to me.

These days you'll find him chattering up a storm, but only if he is comfortable with you. His vocabulary is amazing to me. We've moved on from one word at a time to upwards of 5 words strung together (I wa mo ju, pea.). He is quick to point out every school 'bu' we see and if you ask him where Z is he'll tell you 'ah cool' (at school).

Z is still his idol but he loves to push his buttons. He'll tell Z 'no' just to get a rise out of him. A is quite the parrot and it bugs Z to no end when he copies him. All in all they are best buds and have even come up with some creative ideas together. Last weekend M overheard them in the bathroom giving Nikki a bath. Not the real Nikki, his little stuffed chihuahua! Both were hovered at the sink using soap and everything to get her clean! What a fabulous idea!! (Not really - but could be worse.)

This past Monday we made the big move to a big boy bed. I'd hoped we could wait until after China, but A started to hike his leg over the side of the crib and that was it for me. M bought the mattress that night. He had been telling us he wanted to sleep in a big boy bed. He'd disappear on us and we'd find him in Z's bed reading books. So I let him pick out sheets and prayed for the best. He's slept in there ever since! Not always the happiest to go to bed - but that was happening in the crib too. Now I have two little visitors in the morning!
