He'll be two in a week - can you even beleive it?

My boy turns two a week from today. I LOVE it! And it makes me a little sad that he is such a grown up little monkey - banana eating and all crazy monkey-ness included.

I love him lots, and he loves me back - which is the best way to have the kind of relationship we've got going on.

In the last week or so he is a talking machine, offering a running narrative of his life and everything he does - including everything he does to me like, "hit mama" or "mama bum".

It's so fun that he's such a wild and crazy guy and even though he has much more fun with his auntie Ha-eee and uncle Me Me he can have fun with me, too.



Yesterday we were in the kitchen trying to figure out what to eat for lunch...you don't want to know what we settled on (blueberries, potato chips and ranch dip with crystal light raspberry ice to wash it down - the lunch of champions) and while we were trying to figure it out - the boy asked to be picked up so he could see the ipod on a dock. He then motioned and started yelling, "Come On!" which was code for hissong.

What is the monkey's song? It's a bit non-traditional - "Idlewild blues" by Outkast. It's an awesome song, and we love it. Even though he was too distracted by his hammer and his dumb pacifier - he still managed to get his groove on a bit - and I managed to film it.




In other news...right now in our house, the monkey is obsessed with jelly fish. Go figure. Next week for his b-day we're taking him to lunch and to the aquarium, which happens to have three different kinds of jellyfish. He'll be so excited he might pee his pants. Oh wait, he already does that. :)
