2!

 Dear Enzo,


 I can't believe you are 2 years old! How fast the time has gone. You are my smart, handsome, talkative, friendly, happy, little boy.


Enzo, you love to talk and smile to every person you meet.  You especially love to see "baby brother" in Mommy's tummy.  You will pull up my shirt as quick as can be and kiss the baby.  You also try to share your binky with him.  I can tell you will be a loving big brother and a big helper to Mommy.


In these past few weeks you have started to sing songs.  You might not sing every word, but you love to sing along to dozens of songs.  From "goose" songs(songs we sing at Mother Goose on the Loose) to Jack Johnson, to whatever Daddy happens to be playing on the guitar, you are singing along! You also have started doing the hand motions to nursery rhymes.  It is so exciting to see you learning and showing off what you have learned. You love to dance and will show off for anyone who will watch you.


Mommy and Daddy are your two favorite people.  You love to snuggle with Mommy in the morning after you get out of your crib, and snuggle with Daddy at night after your bath. You are always more than willing to give kisses, with a big "muah!"


"Enzo do it!" has become your favorite phrase.  You love to help Mommy with whatever task I may be working on. Building with legos is your favorite activity.  You could play with blocks for hours! When Mommy calls you from work and ask what you are doing, the answer is always, "building!" When I ask what you are building, it is always a tunnel.  You love tunnels! When riding in the car, you love to ride through tunnels and always ask to go again once we are through.  You even have taken to calling over passes tunnels(because Mommy told you they are mini tunnels.) Your favorite park is the one with the "tunnel slides!"


Your favorite TV shows are Yo Gabba Gabba, Sesame Street, and Sid the Science kid.  Mommy doesn't allow you to watch too much TV, but when Grandpa Bart watches you, you get your fill. You like Yo Gabba Gabba so much, that you were Plex for Halloween and loved your costume! Your birthday party is going to be Yo Gabba Gabba themed.


You are still an awesome sleeper, although you are able to climb in and out of your crib by yourself.  You still wait for Mommy to come get you out of your crib in the morning. I think the only reason you do that is so Mommy will carry your 5 puppies and 3 monkeys to my bed.  You will soon be switching rooms and getting a big boy bed whether Mommy is ready or not.  I'm hoping it doesn't disturb your awesome sleeping habits for too long.



    You hated going to the Dr. for your 2 year checkup even though you didn't get any shots.  You cried the whole time! You refused to let us get you undressed, and refused to talk to the Dr. until the exam was over. You are my big boy at 26lbs 5.9oz(46th percentile), 36 1/4" tall(91st percentile), and 20" head(97th percentile!) So you are still tall and skinny with a big head! You are wearing size 5 pampers during the day, and size 6 overnight diapers and wear 18-24month clothing.

Mommy and Daddy love you so much and are excited to have you in our lives!

Love,

Mommy
