2 1/2 Years Old

Andrew recently turned 2 1/2 years old! He is growing up SO much just since turning 2! His vocabulary has EXPLODED. We still have trouble always understanding him, but he sure does love talking. He will talk your ear off! He recently has begun singing along with songs. He is an all-around kid and is happy doing anything

really. He has a wide range of interests from gymnastics to painting to music to tractors to tools. I really wish I could freeze him at the age he is! I love this age. Yes, he has his moments of STUBBORNNESS, but he really makes me laugh. He has a very sweet and polite heart. He loves to help. For the most part, he is a pleaser and loves words of encouragement.
