How on earth is my baby 2 1/2 already!?!? I must say, he was by far my most difficult baby/early toddler, so now that we are hitting a sweet spot, I'm not sad! But still....TIME FLIES!
Happy 30 Months Isaiah Jae!
30 Month Highlights:
-We had a fun, relaxing thanksgiving day. We started off having brunch at Tia and Uncle G's house while the kids ran around and played. We then went back home and all played a super fun game of kickball. After that, the littles had naps while the adults got dinner ready. We had a very yummy steak dinner (bc nobody loves turkey!). We finished the night with a Christmas movie. Everyone went to bed tired from a full day of fun...and full tummies!
-You helped throw a "surprise birthday party" for Mama (all Bella's idea!). The party consisted of leftover pumpkin pie at 9 am, a banner, a cute homemade gift and some bounce house time : )

-Aubrey's birthday! Mama tried taking a picture of her, but then Bella wanted in, and you couldn't be left out!
Sleeping: No big changes. Bedtime is still 7:30 ish, you sleep til sometime in the 6am hour. We are working really hard with you to not make noise (AKA: Scream DADDY out your door to wake everyone else up!) before your clock turns green. Some days you are great about playing and "reading" quietly, other days, it's all the screaming.
Your nap is around 1:30 or 2 most days, and you sleep anywhere from 1 to 2.5 hours. Most days it's about an hour and a half. You wake up crabby a lot. Crying, crabby, super fun. We've been trying to just open your door and let you come down once you are ready. Some days you just lay in bed 10-20 minutes before you shake off the crabbiness. Other days you come downstairs still crying. Who knows.
Eating: You can throw down when it comes to food you like! You are a champion snack eater! ZBars, veggie straws, almond crackers, cheese, fruit leather, annie's cheetoes, dry cereal...yeah you can eat your weight in it. Other food with substance, some days you'll eat it, other's no way. You also are a great fruit eater. Veggies, unless coming in straw form, not so much : )
