21 Months

I feel like these posts come quicker and quicker. How is already the 21st month? How are you going to be two so very soon? Your Aunt Kat posted a picture of you on facebook recently, from the day you were born, and I don't remember you that small. Hard to believe the little miss you've become.

You never cease to surprise me or your dad. The two of us are constantly amazed at what you do. You are so funny, and there are many times that we have to turn away because we, or I, feel like we shouldn't encourage you or your antics. You want to eat whatever we do, and watching you eat with a spoon makes me nothing short of nervous. I have seen what you can do with a spoon and yogurt. But an entire bowl of soup was eaten and I don't think a drop fell. Good job my little monkey.
You love grilled cheese, and of course ketchup. You dip, dip and dip some more. It's so cute. You even say dip, dip.

You love new things, and are such a daredevil. I feel like I chase you all the time now. Nothing seems to be safe anymore. Your new favourite thing is to jump all over your dad, which is kinda funny. He doesn't quite agree right after dinner, but humors you just the same.
As the seasons are starting to change, I have to switch out all your summer clothes and it's amazing to me that next year you won't be wearing them. You started out so small, how have you gotten so big? I look at the clothes that are hanging in your closet and I think, don't grow, I don't want you to fit into those yet.
But, the world keeps turning, you keep growing and no matter what I do, it's going to happen. We went and saw the genetics team the other day, and they are so happy for you being "normal". You have had no health episodes and that's a good thing. The less amount of health scares an Mcad child has, the better. But we always worry and do everything in our power to keep you safe and protected. We always will, that's what parents do. Hey, it's because of us you are saddled with it. You are so special and unique, one in 17,00 in Mcad terms, and one in a million in our eyes.
Happy 21st month baby.

I found this picture on Pinterest and couldn't resist posting it. It's so true and funny all at the same time!
