Okay, I have finally found a few minutes in my day to update this blog. I apologize for not doing so sooner. Seems like so many things have been happening lately. Grammy VB came down for a nice visit, cousin Jack had a 3rd Birthday, spent some time with Gram and Gramp P., then went to visit Gramp 'cause he broke some bones up in Springfield, Vince got a black eye while visiting Gramp at the hospital, then we came back down to Texas and had a fun play date! Even more things went on in between the rest of all that!
Vince has grown up so much. He is talking up a storm, mostly babble talk still. But a lot more words have been added to his ever growing vocabulary. I really don't know how he retains so much information! I showed him some flash cards weeks and weeks ago and then got them out recently and asked him to pick up the card when I said the word and he did ALL of them correctly. One was a dolphin, when did I ever teach him what a dolphin was? Maybe once a long time ago. He's either a budding genius or just a lucky guesser! I am going to stick with the baby genius idea ;) Unfortunately, he has added NO to his vocabulary this past week. It was so cute at first. Clear as a bell and used appropriately. Now it's just plain annoying and I wish he'd stop! Everything is No! No! No!
We had a Hip Hop themed play date at our house today as you can see from the pictures. Vince was in true Hip Hop form with his St. Louis Cardinals outfit and Nike shoes. I bought him some "bling" to wear with the outfit. He even had an Elmo fake tattoo on his arm. He points to that tattoo and says "Lolo!" over and over. He can't say Elmo clearly just yet. We now live at 1508 Sesame Street! He knows just about every Sesame Street character these days.
I bought him some more grown up toddler toys such as a Giggle and Go Elmo garage play set. He loves to play with the cars and make them go down the ramps. It was the best 6 bucks I ever spent! It's one of the few times he plays quietly and doesn't say No! I bought the toys at the consignment sale here in Plano over the weekend. I got him some really cute plaid shorts for the summer that I can't wait for him to wear.
Anyway, hopefully I will find some more time sooner than later to keep this thing updated. I keep thinking Vince is working on his 2 year old molars as he has been kind of cranky lately. If that's the case, I am sure not to get anything done :)
