Letter to 30 Month Old (2 1/2 years) Caycen

Dear Caycen,
I can't believe that you are 2 1/2 years old already! You are have grown up so so fast. I was looking at all of my letters to you the other day, and it seems like just yesterday that we brought you home. You are so stinkin smart for your age! Every time we go to the doctor for a checkup, Dr. Hobby tells me how advanced you are.

You know more than the average 4 year old (from what he says). You know all of your colors, shapes, numbers 0-9, ABCs upper and lower case, your address, your full name, you can count to 13 (you try counting past that but the next few numbers just sound like 13 over and over haha), you are talking in full out sentences, you put your shoes on all by yourself, and tons more.

We just can't get over how well you talk. Your favorite phrases are "Daddy what're you doin?", "Why didu do dat?", "oh, I sorry mommy", and "Mommy, I gotta go potty".

You are fully potty trained, which was a pain to do at first, but it was so worth it. You love your big boy underwear.

You are at school at Savannah Christian Daycare, and are in Ms. Brandy's class, but you're moving into Ms. Alicia's class in January.

You are starting to show a lot more interest in your baby sister, Gracie June. You go up and talk to her now, help feed her a bottle, put her passy in her mouth, and even give her kisses on occasion.

You are very into the movies Cars and Toy Story recently, you love Max and Ruby, still love Caillou, you love watching Sponge Bob, and Dora the Explorer.

You love playing soccer, football, playing swords with daddy using tubes for the swimming pool, cuddling, watching movies and eating popcorn, drawing, painting, tackling, riding the golf cart with Nona or Aunt Sissy, riding the tractor with Papa Ray, playing the guitar with Daddy, reading books, playing on the iPad, and being goofy.

Your favorite candy right now is probably anything chocolate and you love skittles.

Your best friend is definitely Ella Kate! You guys are two peas in a pod! Y'all see each other and just start cracking up. It's so so funny!

You were in Aunt Sissy and Uncle Chris's wedding in October and were so cute:

You have been such an awesome little boy and I am so proud to be your mommy. We pray for you every single day and hope that you will grow up to be a man of God and know how much we all love you. Thank you for being such a blessing to me and your Daddy!!!

Love you Big Boy C!

Mommy
