Chance: 23 months old!

This is more for me to remember the fun things Chance is doing at this age!  Hope you enjoy reading the fun things about our little guy.  He seems to have really grown up these last two months!  I think because we compare him to a little newborn.

• He is very polite and when he does not want something he says "No thank you please" (even when he is upset!)
• He can do a front roll!
• Can recognize letters of the alphabet and sounds they make! (Thanks to Letter Factory)
• He has crazy curly wavy hair (this started right before Hallie was born!)
• Thinks it is his responsibility to reprimand the dogs (tells them "No Sir!" he hears that alot!)
• Will call us by our first names when he really wants something!
• Becoming a better eater, still not a big fan of breakfast other than a smoothie!
• Loves the library and talks about Ms. Joyce (the librarian)
• He has a slight crush on our next door neighbor Caroline (he will just stare at her through the front windows, too cute)
• Will tell you Love you (melts my heart)
• At dinner Hallie started crying in her room, Chance looked at Ben and said, "Hurry daddy, sister crying."  He talks in sentences alot now!
• Will sleep with only three things in his bed: goldfish blanket, blue bunny, and his puppy, nothing can be added or taken away!  very ocd about what can be in his room.  My coffee cup was in there the other day and he told me to take the coffee away!
• I never realized he could have dreams, but when I woke him up this morning he told me He caught a Fox!  Too funny!  He must have really fun dreams!
• Big Daddy taught him how to give knuckles!
• Not so much fun with the temper tantrum throwing!  Learning that you cannot reason with an almost two year old! Best to just distract and ignore.  When it intensifies to absolute madness time out is working!
• Told on himself the other day when he touched the water on the refrigerator.  He told me he needed to go to time out!  Glad he is listening!

We love you Chance Russell!  I will try to post an updated pic soon!
