A (two month late) Two Year Old Post

So Griffin Pate is almost 2 years and 2 months old! (Or in parent lingo, 26 months old!) What??!! Here is some stats and info on him at this age:

• He weighs 24.4 lbs and is 36" tall. Still a little guy for his age.
• His sleep is still a touch and go thing. Some nights he sleeps all night long, others he wakes a ton. He is still an "early riser" and usually wakes between 6-6:45am.
• He calls Joey his best friend these days, and is so in love with he and Zoey.
• Griffin talks a ton! He started talking early and talks really well for his age. He says the funniest things. Some of my favorite are:
-"that delicious!"
- "it's my favorite"
- "um no no no no" (when we get something he said wrong, he says this and tries to tell us again, so cute)
- "can we pet it?" (Any can we questions)
- "I shake that booty!"
- "take that you funky monkey"
(See videos below)

• Griffin has started asking to pray instead of daddy or mommy at mealtimes and bedtime. OH MY IT'S SOOO CUTE! He says things he has heard me and Mr.Pate pray and it is so precious.
• His favorites right now:
- Shows: Sesame Street, Bernstein Bears, occasionally Chuggington and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
- Movies: Rio, Open Season 2 & 3, Madagascar, Air Buddies, Toy Story 2.
- Toys: his animals, any ball, play dough, his kitchen
- Pastime: "writing"- he loves to pretend to write or pretend to take your order (you want sweet tea? Haha), hiding, playing with Joey, floating in the bathtub, going to the zoo or park
- Food: grilled chicken, rice, taco meat, bananas, cereal bars, popcorn, chips, oranges, blueberries, tomatoes, apples
- Books: 'Brown Bear Brown Bear, What do you see', 'Mr.Brown can moo, can you?', the "that's not my" usborne books, 'llama llama red pajama', and 'my no,no,no,no day'
• He usually will use the potty at home one or two times a day, but we aren't to the point where he tells us.
• He knows all his colors, can count to ten, and can spell half of his name (ha). And he knows how to sing the ABCs.

He really is such a fun fun toddler! Such a sweet personality. Love watching you grow Griffin Pate!
