Griffin Update

Griffin is 23 months old.  One more month before our baby boy is 2 years old.  Griffin will repeat virtually any word you ask him to and he is initiating 4-5 word sentences.  He articulates very well and everyone can understand what he says.  We have been working on peeing in the potty before tubby and this past weekend every time I changed his diaper I would ask him if he wanted to go pee pee on the potty and he consistently said "uh huh" and several times he went!  As long as he is willing we will continue to attempt to potty train.  Griffin is visiting the 2 year old room this week and moving up completely next week- a little early but they need his spot.  He is really going to miss his teacher and a few of his friends but he knows several of the kids that have already moved up and we think he is ready.  Just last week he started a new love for socks.  Every night after tubby he wants socks on and he gets rather upset when you take the old pair off.  So he has traded his crocks and flip flops for tennis shoes. He still loves to be outside and he starts asking or rather demanding "OUTSIDE" the moment he wakes up.  I am so glad it is cooling down a bit because it makes hanging out outside more tolerable.
