How is my little baby now a cheeky little joker with the sweetest heart? How has it already been two and a half years? The boy loves to laugh and likes to say silly words and gets us to repeat it or sing it and he will laugh and laugh and laugh. Last night we spent quite some time singing random songs about a-bla-bla-bla. Lol.
Sometimes, he will ask me to cry. Then when I go waaaaaaaaah he will come up to me and pat pat pat my shoulder till I stop, then say "no more crying!" Hehe so sweet. Likewise when I tell him that there is some part of me that is painful, he will gently stroke the area and say "pain pain, go away! No more pain."

My sister and family was in town for a month in July and it was really awesome go see the kids play together. Her baby was too young to join in the fun, and initially AC would get jealous and cryyyyy when me or nanny would pick up the baby. Over time he got used to it, and would even ask to carry the baby or give him hugs.
The two firstborns got along together and had so much fun. It was so cute to see the older girl teach him how to ask for things (Can I borrow your toy please?) and he would follow her when she ate her meals and he would want to feed himself and finish his food too.
They would run around and laugh and jump on the bed and it was such a joy to watch. Now I feel like I need to have more playdates with other kids!

He has also started sleeping in his own bed, only crawling back into bed with us in the initial days and also when he was not feeling too well. It's amazing to see how much he has grown, and how big he is getting. While I enjoy having more space in bed, one habit he hasn't outgrown is the need to hold my hair when he is falling asleep. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, he will call out "Mama? Hair... Lie down.." and will wait for me to lie down close enough to the edge of the bed and let my hair fall down so he can grab at it.

Ok, better get back to work now.
