Let me just say that I cannot believe that my baby is TWO! Seriously, I must be in a time warp. It seems like just yesterday that I was large & in charge, preggo-style. It makes me so sad to think that Davis really is my baby, with no other little Beilmans coming to grace our family, but that's a whole different post...for my husband's sake, I'll try to stay focused.
Anyway, we had a low-key day of Davis's birth since we celebrated BIG-TIME with our Halloween dual Birthday Bash. He got to open some new Chuggington trains and play with Carter all morning since Preschool was on break for Thanksgiving. I wish we had a video of Davis lunging for his trains when he figured out that what was in his gift bag. It was hi-larious!
Big TWO!
My two favorite boys!
Davis has surprised us by his verbal skills in the past couple of months. The breakthrough was when he came over to me and said "Tarter hit me, mom.", while holding his head. (Carter confessed that he had actually hit his brother in the head with a toy. Big surprise.) He said it as plain as day, except that he can't say his "C's", so it's Tarter, Take and Tars for Carter, Cake and Cars (three of his favorite things). Since then, he is all about the 3-4 word sentences. My other favorite: "Mater's a tow tuck, mom." If you don't know who Mater is, you need to see the movie Cars. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly these guys pick up new skills. Sometimes it is a matter of days for them to master something you were worried they would never figure out...pretty awesome if you ask me.
We love so many things about Davis: his outgoing personality, his never ending resilience to falls, hits and bumps--what a tough guy!, and his softer side that is (for now) a mamma's boy and always ready to be hugged, kissed or snuggled. It has been wonderful to watch Davis become not just a little brother, but a big boy in his own right and a best friend to Carter. We couldn't be more proud or pleased. Love you, buddy!
