All in a day in the life of a 22 month old

Nate turned 22 months on the 16th. I can't believe my baby is nearing two!
I thought I'd capture a few "every day moments" for those of you who feel like you miss out being so far away. I left out all the tears, fits, and poopy diapers...thought you could just imagine those. ha ha :)




Breakfast. Enjoying his toast with jelly.
What a treat!



I love this picture because I see it every day.
He watches out the window while I take our dog outside.
He usually waves, which is what I always told him to do at first to
make my momentary absence more bearable. :)


Heading out to do some errands...


Hooray!! Movie time! His favorite time of the day.



Watching "Bob the Builder," his new favorite.

Getting out of the house.
It always seems by the afternoon we need a
change of pace if we're going to make it till evening and still be sane.
Here we are headed to the park. It was fun. We were definitely the
only ones there and there was only one slide and one swing that wasn't covered
in snow but he didn't seem to mind.

After each trip out he always insists on "driving" for a bit before we
go inside. I thought this picture turned out neat with the reflection
off the window.


Okay, we are coping now. "Mom is making supper and I'm getting
tired. When is Daddy coming home?"
Notice there is a new addition to the bunch.
Since he wore off all of Mr. Lion's tags, he now requires "Andy the Antelope" as well.
(His christmas gift from Daddy)
Poor Mr. Antelope doesn't know he is just being used for his tag.



Daddy's finally home!!!
I don't know who's happier, Mommy or Nate!


Bath time!! I'm getting a bit sleepy...

That is cute, Erica! I loved walking through the day with you. :) I can't believe he's almost 2! Better watch that door when you take the dog out - or keep a spare key outside! haha. :)

I love the pictures of your day! What a good idea. Most days I get lucky if I even remember where my camera is...Alan says that explains why I list my ring. I say phoey, there are so many things to keep track of in life!!! Anyway, I completely understand who is happier to have Daddy home? Kids or Mommy? :) Looks like you and Nate have fun together
