Keegan Reese you are 2 years old today! You have been so excited about turning two this month. You sing the happy birthday song around the house and you are quick to tell others that you are "Two!"
You have grown up so much the last three months. You have really started talking and some days I think that you must say "Momma..." at least five hundred times to get my attention. You get so excited when you try something and when you complete the task you yell "I did it!" all the time. You are saying new things every day and we all get so excited about it. Yesterday Ava yelled to me from the living room that you called her "silly" for the first time. And you clapped and told your daddy "good job!" when he hit the ball off the tee last week. We get so excited watching you learn and do new things and you are constantly cracking us up!
You don't hate going to church anymore. In fact, Sunday was your 8th stay in the nursery without Mommy and Daddy getting paged! I watched from outside your classroom last week as you played with the other kids and sang "I love to pat the Bible" and tears quickly came to me. We always knew it would just take time but we are rejoicing that you enjoy your time in God's house now. It was tough for a while!
We are still watching your little personality develop. You are quiet and solemn the first thirty minutes we go somewhere and then you warm up and come alive. You can be such a little ham but you always need time to check out your surroundings first. My favorite thing to do with you is music and movement story time at our library. I've watched you evolve from sitting and staring to now singing, dancing and drumming and I love when I hear you sing the same songs around the house. I'm not sure why but you always sing "the more we get together" in the bath and it always makes me laugh.
I think the biggest news of all is that you SLEEP! We have had six blissful months of beautiful, sound, incredible sleep and we are so thankful! Most nights you don't get up even once. It only took 18 months but you worth every bit of it. I feel like I've had double the time with you since we hung out days and nights for so long.
It's hard to believe that I held you for the first time two years ago. Just like with your sister, it was love at first sight. You are the perfect addition to our family and we love watching you grow. We are so thankful for you, proud of you and completely in love with you! Happy Birthday sweet boy!
