Tower

Another great birthday gift was his Learning Tower from Nana and Pa. I'm not kidding when I tell you that you need one of these. We are so happy that Bella's Mommy passed along the great find when Bella received one for Christmas. Austin does everything from, eating snacks to helping with the dishes, in his tower. I know it's definitely not a necessity but it's a lot safer then a bar stool!

The Official Stats

The official two-year stats are finally in!

Weight: 30 lbs and 10 oz - 75th % - Up 4.5 pounds from 18 mo
Height: 37 inches - 95th % - Up 3 inches from 18 mo
Head: 20 inches - 90th % - Up 1/4 inch from 18 mo

He was such a big boy at the doctor. He didn't make a single peep during the exam or shot. It wasn't until the band-aid came out that he actually cried. It didn't even help that it matched his shirt! It hurt my heart to see how hard he was trying not to cry in from the the nurse. How can he already know he should be tough!?! He's growing up way to fast!The Doc said he's a healthy little big boy. I believe his exact words were, "he's definitely bigger than the average bear!" I felt a little lightheaded when he said that another visit isn't required until he heads to school. School?!?! Babies don't go to school!

(Does anyone else getting a germy feeling just looking at the first picture? I swear I could feel myself getting sick while sitting in the exam room!)

Would you like fries with that?

One of Austin's favorite birthday gifts is his toy grill from Grandma and Grandpa FerFer. We've had more burgers and hot dogs in the past month then we've had in the past two years. Did you know that pie is good on the grill? It's even better with his one and only condiment...ketchup!The grill is the prefect size to move outside when it's not 105 nice out. He has a blast grilling with Dad. His favorite burger toppings are "yunions, sheese, matos and wetus."Food service runs from 8 a.m. - 8 p.m., but don't come looking for eggs and bacon. It's burgers and hot dogs all day long!
