Bobby Boy

Mr. Bobby Boy finally had his 18 month apt, only two months late, but better late than never! He is a peanut just like his little sister, but is full of spunk. Looking back at Izzy at this age, I never thought I would say that having a girl was easier as a toddler. I had heard boys are much harder as toddlers and easier as teenagers and we are hoping it is true. Bobby, we love you so little man, but goodness, do you have a lot of spunk.

According to the doctor, you are socially advanced, which she said she knows isn't always what you want to hear at this age haha. You manage to manipulate us already at such a young age without us even realizing it. :) You are a carbon copy of your Papa and that makes me smile, even when you are a stinker. You somehow get humor at the ripe age of 20 months and it is shocking. We will read you a story that has humor more meant for the adults reading it, than children your age and you manage to laugh at all the right places. You think everything is funny, which is usually endearing, unless it is when you are being naughty. You get upset easily when things don't go your way and your first instinct is to cry and scream and then usually throw something or push someone or something. Thankfully, you usually save these moments for your dad, me, and Izzy and behind closed doors. You LOVE to make messes, your favorite thing to do is to take all of the books off of the bookshelves. You'd spend all day jumping on our trampoline if we let you. You love to eat all the time, but somehow, you don't gain a lot of weight. You are a jokester and always make us laugh and you love your sister so much. If you don't want to listen to us, we can ask Izzy to tell you to do something and you do it right away.

You are in LOVE with Farm animals and singing Old McDonald. You bring your Around the Farm book everywhere with you and love to say your animal sounds. You sleep with your plastic farm animals if we let you. You have become a little stinker with your sleeping which has resulted in a little tough love  and letting you cry it out. You manage to make everyone laugh and smile by just being you. You give into your sister as long as she says please and asks nicely, which is so sweet to see. You manage to bat your eyes and people will let you get away with whatever you'd like. You are your Papa. We know we are in trouble when you are a teenager, but know you'll be the class clown and keep us on our toes and laughing. We love you Bobby boy! Keep being you, even if it isn't always easy on us. :)
