This guy is closer to 3 than 2. This is mind-boggling. And since Grant's been getting most of the face time on the blog recently, I figured it was Tyler's turn to shine.
He's got a lot going on in his world too. Potty training was our most recent success!!! We just tried one weekend and he just picked it up and ran with it. So much so that I just said to Kevin tonight, I barely even think about it anymore. He just goes, he either tells me or he doesn't, and it all works out pretty much ok. So there's that...huge victory.
Tyler's imagination is also running rampant these days, he cooks a lot of really hot things that no one should touch, he sees an alarming number of dinosaurs in our house, etc.
Things he says these days include "hugemidifier" (humidifier)
"So, let's talk about this"
"Potty dance"
"nine zero badger lane" (our address)
"I do it mineself"
"I love you mommy/daddy/Grant" (randomly throughout the day, many times a day!!! So sweet)
Tyler also loves singing and randomly breaks out in song...just tonight he busted out head, shoulders, knees and toes at the dinner table much to our surprise. I heard once that a child who sings is a happy child. Tyler must be happy!
He also has grown into quite the big brother. When (not if) Grant cries in the car, Tyler will always start singing twinkle twinkle little star to him. That's been Tyler's bedtime/naptime routine song since he was as tiny as Grant...so love that he finds comfort in it and thinks to comfort Grant too. He is still adjusting to Grant's most recent success...crawling...because now his toys are becoming Grant's toys whether he approves or not!
All in all 2.5 is treating him right, and he's just fun, unpredictable, curious about everything and big on doing things "mineself"
