21 Months Old

I cannot believe I will soon be planning the twins second birthday party. Gwen is talking up a storm. She is beginning to repeat just about everything I ask her to. She is very attached to mommy and Grandma. I hope to get her involved in some more activities. I want her to be confident in herself. Her favorite words are dough (aka no), sexy (aka suckie), peek, mommy, dad, peas (aka please), papa, Luke, Grady, side (aka outside), shoes and bye. She is so much fun to be around. She loves to be outside and swing on the playset. She is starting to throw some small tantrums, but nothing too bad yet. She sleeps wonderful and loves her blanket. If I let her, I am pretty sure she would take it everywhere.

Grady has started saying hi , dad, mom and sssss (aka please). He is a very happy child. He loves to explore and play everything. At the playground, he just takes off. The slide is his favorite thing to do. Grady is very observant. He is always looking for birds, bugs, squirrels, you name it. In the fall he was obsessed with picking up leaves, now it is on to flowers (aka dandelions). We cannot walk more than a step without picking up a flower. If an airplane or train go by, he is the first to hear it. Grady still loves his fruits and veggies. When it is time to give Grady and kiss goodnight, he puckers up! Grady has a good attention span for most things he does, well as much as a kid his age could possibly have.

This is by far my favorite age, although I have said that about every age, so I am excited for what is to come. Gwen and Grady love each other so much. They do everything the other is doing, both the good and the bad. I am really enjoying being their mommy.
