Age 2


Ok so this post is mainly for my own records. I seriously have the worst memory so I want to write down all the things that Logan is doing at this age because I know in 6 months I will have forgotten. By the time Logan turned 2 he could count to ten. Shortly after, he learned all his colors and just a few months ago learned all his shapes. For awhile he thought motorcycles were called motorcopters. Whenever he doesn't want something he tells it to go buh bye in the car. For example when I try to give him medicine he says "No, medicine go buh bye in car". Also if he can't find something he's looking for (mostly toys) he tells it to "come home". The other day he told me his first story. I was drying him off after he got out of the bath and he said "Throw towel in garbage....no no....timeout....hit bum....sorry towel. Logan doesn't hardly ever get spanked but apparently he associated throwing the towel in garbage as a serious enough offense to have his "bum hit" in which he would then need to apologize to the towel. When Logan wakes up in the morning he comes into our room and climbs into our bed. Usually Taylor has gone to work by this time so Logan lays on his side of the bed. The other morning Taylor was still in bed so when Logan walked into the room he yelled "Daddy get out". I was laughing so hard. Logan has learned who Jesus is in nursery and knows that all the paintings at church have Jesus in it. Now whenever we're at the store and he sees a painting he points to it and says "Mommy, Jesus". He also on a regular basis asks to go to Jesus's house. We've been trying to teach him about Santa Clause this year and told him Santa will come on Christmas and bring him lots of presents. He now asks me everyday for "Santa to come over" because he's ready for his presents. He's obsessed with boats, trains, helicopters, and airplanes. He's been on at least 8 airplane rides (possibly more but I can't remember) and absolutely has the time of his life. We flew to Reno in October and when we were taking off Logan was so excited he was laughing. The guy sitting next to me thought it was hysterical. He said he had never seen a kid laugh while taking off. His favorite song is "You are my sunshine" and he marches around the house and sings "Follow the prophet". When he wants you to chase him around the house he says "Mommy get you". We were in Reno one time I was laying next to Logan trying to get him to fall asleep. All the sudden decided to shove his finger up my nose super hard. It gave me a bloody nose so and when Logan saw he said "Mommy, fire in nose". Also if something hurts his eyes he says "fire in eyes". All and all Logan is a pretty good kid. He gets mad a things but he doesn't really throw temper tantrums. I think we are pretty lucky because I don't really feel like we're experiencing much of the terrible twos.
