Happy Birthday Aaron!

Somehow our baby boy has grown into a little boy.  Aaron officially turned 2 on Monday, though I have been telling people he is 2 for a month or so.  Once again, Aaron had a low key birthday party.  I feel so bad for the little guy, but it is hard to ask all of our friends to come to a party New Year's day after a really busy month.  But, next year I vow he will have a party with friends.

Here is a glimpse of Aaron at 2:
He is 25 lbs and 33 inches.
He will eat just about anything, but his favorite foods are blueberries, peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches, 'pink juice' (V8 Splash that I have started mixing with milk since he is not a big fan of that), icecream cones (with only a little icecream - he prefers the actual cone), kiwi, fruit snacks, waffles (any kind but multigrain - those taste awful), apples, hot dogs, Ramen noodles, and any kind of bread.  He has actually turned down cake, icecream, and jello.
His favorite tv shows are Word World and Super Why, though he recently started requesting Dora (probably because Ally does).
He LOVES anything cars and will watch clips on the ipad of Cars movies, Cars video games, and other kids playing with Cars.
Daddy Truck is his favorite thing to say.  He says it a billion times a day.  He loves Mikes truck.
He loves his blankies and binkie - he knows there is more than one blankie and often insists on 'more blankie.'
He is very cuddly when he first wakes up in the morning or after a nap.
He is very charming when he wants to be.
He likes to play ball and can throw fairly well, however he will stand a foot from your face and throw as hard as he can at your head.
He loves dogs, although all dogs are 'buddy-dogs' as Nana and Pop-pop's dog is named Buddy.
He speaks very well for a 2 year old boy (especially one with a chatty older sister).  Some of his frequent phrases are: Daddy truck, mommy car, daddy take (when you ask him where his binkie or blankie is someone ususally has taken it), Tow Mater tow truck, Lightning MqQueen
He will sing every other word to Twinkle, twinkle, little star (it is soooo adorable to hear).
He is a natural little comedian and is constatnly making us laugh.

If only we could keep him 2 forever...
