22 Months

Owen is now 22 months and 5 days.  After he turns 2, it seems weird to say he's so many months old.  I'm trying to enjoy my month counting time.  We haven't been to the doctor since May, but Owen seems much taller to me this month.He is kind of between sizes in clothes and shoes right now. Many of his 24 month shirts are getting too short.  He is wearing 24 month and a few 2T clothes.  He is wearing some size 5 shoes and some size 6 shoes.  He is talking alot!!  He can label several colors and can count to 10 with a little help. He is using alot of 2 word combinations and says new words everyday.  He has started calling for me when he wakes up instead of crying.  He loves to dance, play with cars, and play in his tent.  His favorite book right now is "Goodnight Moon".   He also likes his children's Bible.  He points to baby Jesus and Jesus with the children.  He also likes to say "amen" after our dinner prayer and at church. He climbed out of his crib during naptime a couple weeks ago and scared me to death.  Thankfully, he was ok.  We lowered the crib to the last notch (it had been on the second to last one and I never dreamed he could climb out).  He has a great memory and will talk about things that happened days or sometimes weeks ago.  He is amazing! : )
 Daddy let him shave with a spoon. 
 He spends a lot of time with his cars.
 Calling the hogs is a daily event.

He looks so grown up in this one!
