A Banner Day

Andrew, you blow me away. We started the day off with a showcase of your vocabulary. When I came into the room to wake you this morning, I turned off your fan. Still lying in bed, you turned your head toward me and said, "fan on, asshole". Gee thanks. Do you realize you're two?

Later in the day, you filled me with pride when you again showcased your vocabulary... this time, for the ladies at daycare. It was reported to us that you were unhappy with your serving size of applesauce so you told the daycare worker, "more applesauce, asshole". Where in the world do you come up with this? I know many two year olds test out the foul language but I don't know of many that use the words so appropriately. Apparently, there were more of those fabulous words throughout the day and our friends at daycare were not too impressed.

Finally, we come home this evening and you displayed your handman skills. Your Daddy bought you a cute little battery operated drill. We heard the drill going on and on this evening and just assumed you were pushing the buttons like usual. After a few minutes, I actually looked at your work - you were disassembling the changing table. What two year old knows how to do that? I walked over to find a pile of screws and a very wobbly table. Two or three more screws and we would have had a pile of wood in the middle of the floor. You definitely take after your Daddy.

You were on quite a roll today. Although you're such a little challenge, I'm so glad we have you in our lives.

Today was a typical day for Ryan... eat, sleep, poop. Not much else happening in the day of the life of a four month old. You were a little cranky but that probably has something to do with the gallons of slobber coming from your mouth and the teeth that are working their way through your gums. We can't feel them yet but I'm sure they'll be popping through any day now.

I can't wait til you boys can play together. I can only imagine the chaos you'll cause.
