23 Months
You started saying you're having "trouble" when something is too hard for you.
You like to stand in front of your book shelf and says "how about???" And then say "no" to each and every book I pick out.
You like to say "sorry" when you trip or fall.
You could live on milk, grapes and pancakes.
You like to hum.
You say goodbye by saying: Bye! Peace! Out!
You like to sing Opara with Nana
You love the computer. Especially youtube videos of tractors and trains.
You refer to yourself as Ging-Ging or Tin-Tin.
You ask for fries and burgers when you see McDonald's.
You love to wear your sunglasses.
You are super shy around people you don't see very often.
Your face gets red as soon as we get outside.
You enjoy feeding the cows, especially when you can give them a "piece piece" of corn.
You are such a sweet little boy. Last weekend, a photographer told me that you are so "kind-hearted." It warmed my heart and made me so proud!
Love you!

A No Band-Aid Kid
We had our first "serious" skinned knee about a week ago. I wasn't there, so I'm not sure what exactly happened, but I know all parties involved felt just as bad as Austin's knee hurt. 
It was old news by the time I got home, but he still wanted nothing to do with ointment or band-aids. He could have cared less when I showed him how cool the Elmo band-aids were. I tried to show him they didn't hurt by putting one on my own arm, but I'm pretty sure he caught me wince when I pulled the darn thing off!
I knew we had to get something on it because it was begging for an infection. Just look how raw the center was! We eventually worked out a plan... Dad held a book near his face (much like they do with a sheet during surgery) while I applied ointment and two band-aids. I quickly slipped on his PJ pants before he even knew what was going on!
Always an adventure!

I Started Him Young...
They say that some adults spend more then 8 hours a day in front of a computer screen. I'd say it's safe to say I can put those numbers to shame. I spend a lot of time on the computer even after I spend 8 hours in front of it at work. So I guess it's no surprise that my son might have the same slight addiction...
His big thing is watching videos of trains. All evening we hear, "wah-wap (lap), trains, trains, trains, wah-wap, trains, trains, wah-wap, chair, trains, trains, trains." Just recently, he figured out how to climb in the chair himself. He hasn't figured out how to use the mouse but I'm sure it's not far behind.Any bets on when he gets his first laptop??

Role Models
Between all the clapping, celebrating and cake, I got to thinking about how special these three people are to Austin. We are all SO BLESSED to have them in our lives. I look forward to watching them all take the next step of life."My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish."
