The Walsh Family: Today is Leo's Birthday

Leo Thomas March 30, 2010

Our sweet little boy turned 2 today! This birthday has been more emotional for me this year, he has grown so much! He is a ball of energy with a mind of his own. Growing and changing everyday Leo is now repeating almost every word he hears and forming sentences! He loves to dress (and undress) himself and pick out his own outfits. He can take of his own shoes and put most pairs on himself as long as they don't have laces. He loves going the park and playing outside! I actually have a slight sunburn from all our outdoor activities and it's only March!

Cute Thing's I want to Remember

When he wants you to carry him he will reach his arms in the air and say "care care"
He loves popcorn! We have it almost every night while we watch Conan O'Brien...which he will ask for after his bath "Con-nan?"
Even though he can say "lily" now he still calls her "E" which is adorable.
He has been calling Mike "DaddyMike"
He loves to tell the dogs to "sit" and then throw food at them!
He calls Grandma and Grandpa (both sets) Mam-maw and Pap-pa, which he decided all on his own.

Potty training is progressing slowly but he tells you (very often) that he wants his diaper changed in which he will lay down on the floor (doesn't matter where he is at) and get the "changing position" saying "diaper poop"

I can't describe how much I love this little boy! Watching him grow is the biggest blessing a mother can have and I am grateful everyday that I am with him. He is becoming so much of a "little boy" and not so much a "baby" anymore and it is a bittersweet feeling. I hope he reads this someday and knows how much he means to his Dad and I.
