Stephen Matthew

Stephen is officially a talker. He talks all the time. He can say whatever you do and says it well. He now can run at full speed and keep up with his big brother.....well, almost. Grant's really fast. Stephen enjoys watching his brother play soccer. I have to keep Stephen off of the soccer field. Stephen also loves Papa. He loves to get on Papa's big tractor. Stephen like for mommy to drive fast and he holds his hands up while mommy drives.

Running errands today.....we come to a corner where a bum is standing and Grant says, "I don't like that man." Then he says, "he looks like the christmas man." Kids are so funny.

He loves to play with his brother and help daddy outside. Grant loves to go to church and see his friends, his sunday school teachers, (Matt and Brittany) and learn about Jesus.

Our little boy turned 2 today. He is so precious to us and we could not imagine life without our little guy. Life is pretty exciting with 2 boys. We had to replace some friends' toilet this past weekend ($120), due to our boys. Stephen is just growing so fast. We went to the dr today and he weighs 24.6 lbs and is 32 7/8 inches tall. He is in the 10th percentile in weight and 15th percentile in height. He has gained 2 lbs since his 18 month visit. Stephen loves to play with Grant and loves trucks, trains and also, playing outside. Stephen is talking more and more everyday. Putting 2-3 words together and really starting to communicate well. We are looking forward to Stephen's b-day party tomorrow.

Oh my, this kid gives me the run for my money. He is so much fun, but likes to test and tell you no all the time.....no matter what. He is showing interest in the potty, which is good. I think he will be potty trained before Grant was. Stephen is a better talker at this age than Grant was. He loves to play basketball and read books. Stephen also goes to the airport with daddy and loves it. Stephen will be 2 on May 8th.

Wow, time is flying....we have been on a cruise and the day before we left was Grant's 3 year check-up. Grant weighed in at 28 lbs....this is good, he has gained a whole 5 lbs. He is 33 and 3/4 inches tall. He is growing. He is so much fun and loves to play basketball, in the dirt, outside, with Stephen and with daddy. Blake takes the boys to the airport to watch the helicopters and airplanes and they love that. Grant is fully potty-trained now. He does so well. Hardly ever having an accident, only when he is busy playing. We do wear pull-ups at night, with time, this will stop and we can wear underwear at night also. While at the dr, she asked Grant what his favorite color was and he said, "purple." I was just glad that he said a color. He is learning like crazy....everything you say or tell him, he remember's it.

Stephen just loves to wrestle. I find him on top of Grant quite frenquently around here. Grant doesn't seem to mind it either. Stephen is becoming such a big boy. He is talking really well now. Just in the past week or so, he is beginning to answer me by either saying, "No." or "uh-huh." He is just so cute. He is fighting a cold now or he is cutting teeth, not quite sure which. We just love them so much. Blake says that often, last night, I thought he was going to cry.
