My Baby is Two!


I am not sure how it happened, but I blinked and Keegan turned 2 last Sunday, July 6th. He has completely turned my life upside down, inside out, and all around. I am proud to be Keegan's mom and enjoy every development, every funny moment, and even sometimes his tantrums. They sometimes can be quite amusing and really hard not to laugh at. (sometimes being the key word) We have learned to do so many things this year that it is quite amazing. He is all boy. From splashing in puddles, pointing out every truck on the road, to noticing any time a sport is on tv. He is a polite boy, when he wants to be, and I love when is says "Peas"(please) and "Tu Tu"(thank you) without asking him. Keegan has his own little personal space. If you are not invited he will let you know it. On the flip side, he loves when you play with him and he does not like to play by himself. He is a sweet boy and loves to cuddle after naps and take care of his little brother. He is also very smart and you can't get much pass him. He says "UGGGGGGH!!!" for every word he does not know but soon enough he will be talking in sentences. He understands way more than he can say and I know that has to be killing him. He says a new word everyday at this point. Keegan is daddy's little helper. He loves to pull weeds and...grass, rake, hammer, put things together and apart, and cries when he can't help mow. He wants to live outside and never come inside. His favorite toys currently are Melmo (Elmo) and Choo Choos. He loves music and recently started dancing. He came home from VBS knowing motions to his favorite song. Keegan still has the greatest laugh and I enjoy seeing him experience things in life. I feel like as a team we have accomplished so much and while I am trying to mold him into a godly young man, he is molding me into a mother that I never knew I could be.
