Two Years and Three Months (27 mo)

Yet another FUN month.
Fall is definitely in the air so we have enjoyed a few pumpkin festivals this month.  
   One of the highlights of this month was having some of my cousins come for a visit.  Cousin Nathan and Cousin Natalie and their parents came from Texas as well as Cousin Parker and his daddy from Wisconsin.  It was so fun to have two boy cousins about my same age to play with.  We even got to celebrate cousin Parker's 2nd birthday with him - which meant cupcakes - oh so fun!
   I also had a BLAST for Halloween.  I dressed up like Minnie Mouse this year. And - Who knew it was so easy to get candy?? :)  Just go up to people's houses and say something that I never could say quite right. I did a good job of saying "Thank You" though.  But, once I  got a lollipop (that I call "pock"), I did not care about anything else- I just wanted Mommy to open that so I could have it right away.

New things I like to do:
* Count  - right now, it sounds a bit like, 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 -- Mom's not sure what happened to those other numbers in the beginning. :)  And, she laughs that I will only know up to 16 because that is how high we count every time we go up or down the stairs.
* I love to talk.  I am saying so many things now and it is fun for Mommy and Daddy to finally understand most of what I am saying.
* I still love puzzles.  One of my favorites is the Alphabet Puzzle. And, I know almost all of them except for sometimes I forget G, J, and Q.   Mom also laughs that for W - I just say "Double" (instead of "double u" :)
* I know a few colors.  I always get pink, black, and orange right.  And, most everything else is red or blue (but not always when I see red or blue).
* I have also learned how to pick my nose- much to my Mom's dislike.  I even run and hide from her so that she cannot take my finger out of it.  
* My favorite food is still probably pizza.  I also had tacos for the first time this month and really liked that.  Mom's spaghetti was pretty good too (even with mushrooms, onions, and spinach in it).  For breakfast, I really like waffles with syrup.  And, I still dont love to drink much milk but Mommy keeps trying to get at least one sippy cup in me a day.  Oh yeah, I still LOVE fruit: blackberries and mangoes are among my favorites.
