They have been 2 quite...interesting months! We have shared some exciting moments as E hits some milestones, as well as some disappointments, tears, changes, sleep deprivation and some hard times as parents to 2 under 2. But, all in all, I wouldn't change this time for anything in the world!
I am a firm believer in that things happen for a reason and that our circumstances and experiences make us who we are. Even when change makes me afraid before it happens, I am truly grateful for all of the changes I have undergone in my life, especially since I got married. My views of the world have definitely changed over the years.
As for baby E, by 2 months he is already an avid roller from belly to back (cannot leave him alone for even 1sec!), he smiles frequently, he focuses on objects, pushes up from the floor and can hit toys hanging above him! It feels like he is growing up way too fast. Maybe is the fact that he has been wearing 3 month clothes since about 5 weeks old!!
On the other hand, Eli will be 22 months in a few days and she has been talking up a storm. Around the time baby E was born, she had quite a few words, but nowhere near as to where she is now. She is starting to put phrases and sentences together, such as "donde está bobo?" (where is paci?), can identify at least 7 body parts and knows at least 7 signs. Sometimes I feel like I don't have a baby anymore. However, we still need to work on her skills with utensils, social skills and the oh-so-dreaded potty training.
Can't
wait to see what else is in store with these two! :)
