23 Months

23 down 1 to go! I can't believe how fast this year went too. We are in full birthday party preparation! And Ben is getting super excited about his party! Not much new this month except for the explosion of words. If I had to guess I would say he is well on his way to 200 words. It  has been almost unreal the things that are coming out of his mouth. He repeats EVERYTHING he hears. The good and the bad so we have to watch our mouths closely. He has totally stopped signing all together and can tell you just what he wants. If you don't understand him he will take your hand and show you! He is also starting to recognize letters...B-E-N-R-P-O. He can also count to 5! He loves to sing and dance and is still controlling the radio song selections in our cars! That absolutely drives Vince crazy but I don't mind because its better than the kids songs I have heard a thousand times. He is still obsessed with his rain boots-rain or shine! Popcorn is his new favorite food. He asks for it as soon as he wakes up and all day until hes back in bed! He is obsessed with the movie Cars 2. He calls it "car show" and I feel like we watch it all the time. WordWorld is another huge hit-he calls it "doggie show". He is getting really good at recognizing animals and telling you what sound they make.  But he thinks dinosaurs said neigh neigh but who really knows maybe hes right!  I can't believe in less than a month our baby will no longer be a baby but a 2 year old.
