23 Months.



His attitude today. . .




Bonus points if you can speak "JJ" and know what he's saying!


JJ's been very "good" lately so it's no surprise that today, just one month away from turning two, he was crazy all day! He's been sleeping horribly lately and his teeth seem to be causing him lots of pain. He now has three out of four of his "two-year molars" but they're coming in very slowly and not enjoyable for any of us : ( He's been drooling lots again and always has his fingers in his mouth. We really can't wait to have this teething thing over!

Today JJ ended up on two "real" timeouts. The first was when we were coloring, but he decided that instead of coloring he wanted to throw colored pencils at my head! I told him to stop numerous times and then told him if he did it one more time he would be getting a timeout, then one handful of pencils later, he was crying sitting on a timeout on the stairs!

The second timeout happened when I was cooking dinner and JJ climbed up onto a chair, then onto the counter, then started turning on the kitchen faucet on hot over and over again. I was concerned about JJ falling and burning himself on the hot kitchen sink water, so I told him if he did it one more time he would have a timeout. After three more times of turning on the faucet, JJ was sitting again on the stairs on timeout. This time he didn't cry during timeout, he just sat staring at me like, "what, I did it, what are you going to do about it?!?!?!!?" Brian and I definitely have a willful little boy on our hands.

  1. Aaaaah, Mom, I didn't mean to hit you with the pencils! Do I have to sit here all by myself?
    Oh, those days seem so far away and then sometimes it seems like just yesterday your cousin was up to some of the same things....and who turns 42 in two days! Can you believe it? Yeah, I can't either. Love, Rosalee
