Griffin Bear

I haven't done an update on Griffin in a while.  He just seems so big to me lately.  He's clearly leaving the toddler days behind and seems like a little boy to me now.  He talks ALLLL day long and says the funniest things.  I know I need to be writing them down, but always forget.  Here are a few special things about Griffin at 2 years, 8 months:

- Loves going to school on Tuesday and Thursdays with Mrs. Brandi and Mrs. Terri

- Missed a post on this but he's been potty trained for a couple of months now.  Still wears diapers to bed but we'll work on that in a few months

- favorite things to do are play baseball in the backyard, go to the playground that's right by our house, and play with his friends.  So funny, every morning he asks "Where we going?" and if I tell him we're just staying home he always says "Let's go Mommy, Let's go", I don't think he's going to be much of a home body.

- Still a really sweet big brother.  He's been trying to teach Ella to crawl, brings her toys when she's fussy, and loves to play "Ella Monster" in our bed.

- Has been testing the waters lately when we tell him no and can still throw a toddler fit every once in a while

- A few weeks ago at school he got in trouble for hitting when someone took his toy.  I explained to him to use his words when someone does something he doesn't like, to say "No no no" instead of hitting.  Well, it kind of backfired because now when we ask him to do something he doesn't want to do he tells us "No no no".  

- Very sensitive to feelings recently. He always says, "Mommy are you happy?" :)

We love you so much Griffin and can't wait to see how you grow and change in the years to come.  You are such a special part of our family!
