2 years ago, where does the time go?

Bennett will be 2 tomorrow, well in less than 12 hours to be exact. I don't know where the time has gone, and I find myself wishing I would document his milestones, manners, and off the wall sayings more frequently. So, here it goes for #2...

To Benny,
What I love about you:
You give super hard high-fives
You give hugs and hold on tight
You fall fast asleep at night
You think you're 5 when you're only turning 2
You say "Pease" and "No, pease" instead of please and no thank you
You say "Up" when you want the basketball hoop raised higher and run around the bases just like an MLB player
You like to run around in my high heals and a baseball hat
You still take long naps
You're a comedian, a sports fanatic and a fruit snackaholic
You like to run around naked, but hardly ever get sick
You're laid back, but are always trying to make us laugh
You share with "sissy" and ignore her when she's a big tease
You're a good eater and stuff big bites into your mouth
You're mostly good but when you get in trouble you usually pout
I love that you have a favorite monkey that you sleep with and snuggle and that we lay on the couch every morning and cuddle.

I could go on and on, but I'll wrap this up. I'm sad that he's already 2, but am so proud of this little man. Happy birthday bubbs!

Playing with his early birthday present from Mom & Dad. Choo-Choo! Or as Benn says it, "Shoo-Shoo!"

Snuggling. When did he get SO big?!?

Awe..... this made me cry...... so precious...... they grow so fast..... I'm glad he still snuggles with you! Luke is a good snuggler too. :-)

Maybe its a boy thing. Avah isn't a big cuddler, she's more independent. So, I soak it up when Benn is in the mood. :)

Mama's boys and Daddy's girls? :-)))))) Who knows.... but yeah, gotta soak it up while you can get it! Hope Ben had a great birthday!!!!!!
