2 and 1/2

Can you believe it? Today Carter is 2 and 1/2. Everyday he seems more like a kid instead of a baby or toddler. He does so much and says so much that I'm constantly shaking my head, thinking when did this happen! Want to know some of the things about this kid that makes me smile?

• He knows all his letters. However, because "W" is said "double-U" he thinks all letters should have a double. Sometime he tosses in a "double-Y" or a "double-R". Same goes for his numbers. I've heard the occasional "double-4" or "double-8".
• He calls Popsicles powerpuckers. I could work on the pronunciation but it's so darn cute!
• He is wearing pull ups now. He said he doesn't want to wear diapers anymore. Sill far from totally potty trained, but hey, another step in the right direction.
• He loves to go to the doctor and is an amazing patient. He makes sure the doctor uses all her instruments and sometimes asks her to do everything twice. Other then his shot today he was perfect! Oh yea, for those keeping track 32 lbs. (71% for weight), 37 in (74% for height).
• If you ask him what he wants for breakfast, lunch or dinner he will always say waffles.
• He can ride and steer his tricycle.
• He loves to swim. He jumps off the diving board and now likes to take his swimmies off and go underwater by himself. He tries to swim to us underwater but doesn't really go anywhere but down.
• He sings alot. Loves to sing itsy-bitsy spider and do the hand motions. Don't let him catch you singing along though. He likes his solo!
• He kisses Ryan goodnight on the head every night.

Although this post is about Carter, I couldn't help but add a picture of Ryan being her cute self.
