Big Boy Big Boy...Where has my Baby Boy Gone?

Jacob Brayden ~ 33-Months

Jacob has become such a big boy in just the last few months, I don't even know where the time has gone!

1. Sleeping in a Big-Boy Bed- (full/queen size) for about 2-months now- he loves it, especially with his "Toy Story" Sheets. I was most excited too because we were able to "update" his room a bit too- we added a new plaid comforter (from Pottery Barn Kids) and new matching navy blue valances. It is such a "Boy" Room now.


2. Potty Trained. YES!!! This is true. I gave it 2-weeks before I would blog about it (fearful that this would "jinx" us.) Jacob was introduced to the "potty" at 18-months old, since then he would be "wishy washy" about the whole thing...not sure if he wanted to do it, and so on. After Emerson was born, Jacob wanted nothing to do with the potty, for months he was wearing pull ups, after weeks of buying new ones, I finally decided enough was enough, once the last one was gone, it would be undies 100% (except for nighttime- I bought one more pack for just nighttime)~ after a few accidents, this boy is telling us when he has to go (including #2!!!!!!), and he does! He still needs assistance pulling down his pants, etc...but we are officially potty trained...I must say, I feel so proud (wow! that was tough !!!!)


3. He's a bruiser! This kid has been getting boo boos and scabs and bruises left and right...and he's pretty proud of them. I think its pretty funny. What a boy.

This Little Boy is such a Big Boy. He talks like a Big Boy too...Loves the word "actually" or"instead" and just starts blabbing about anything and everything. He is such a talker. I am so proud of him and am constantly laughing at the things he says. For instance, he said the other day- "Mommy, what's gluten?" Huh? As many people know, I need to be gluten free, and have had some physical issues with it, and he has been listening to my conversations...as he was going to bed the other night, he stopped and said..."Wait...what is gluten?" I did wha? huh? ummm...well... (how do you explain that "strange" word?)
