Ian turns 2!

Wow. What happened to the months of March and April? I mean seriously, where did the time go? You think that having been on bed rest, I would have every moment spent on my couch or immobile etched in my brain, but somehow the month of May has crept up on me. SO many things to tell- like an amazing birth story, and how the entire first month has gone with my newborn, but speaking of May- guess who's having a birthday?

Ian turned 2 this week!
Here's a snap shot of where he's at these days, so that I can always look back here and remember.
-Height is 33 inches (25%) . Weight is  25 pounds (also 25th percentile) .
-Finally has a nice head of hair (took till 16 months to grow!!)
-Is getting his bottom two 2yr molars in right now.
-Knows his colors and some shapes.
-Can count to 20, although most of the teens sound like the same number...
-Knows all his letters, either inside the alphabet song or individually when seen, also knows what sounds they make.
-Cannot currently open doors that are closed or jump with both feet off the ground
-Is potty trained, as in wears underwear all day and has no pee accidents (a diaper at night), but he will never tell you he needs to go potty, he will just go when you tell him to, which seems to be working just fine.
-Loves Angry Birds more than anything (as in, the app on the ipad, the puzzles, the coloring books, the band aides, the plush toys, etc) How our house became over run with Angry Birds, I'll never know...
-Also loves Sesame Street and Thomas the Train, blowing bubbles, being next to Neil ( he always wants him next to him; in the bed, in the car, in the stroller, etc), playing t-ball and basketball, taking baths, spending time with all the grandparents and aunts and uncles, playing guitar or bass or drums and this kid loves to dance!
