Phillip is still our sweet boy and is very caring. If he finds something that is yours he'll run right to you to give it to you. Every now and then there is sharing issues but for being 2 he is actually a pretty good sharer.
He loves to explore and is really smart. He has figured out how to undo child-protection, like the
outlet covers - he knows how to take those out and tries to plug things in. We always have to keep a close eye on him. Christmas was especially difficult because he loved to plug in the Christmas tree.
Since he's 2, we started just introducing potty training and having him practice going in the potty seat. He's gone a couple times so we are excited but still a long way to go.
Phillip's likes:
Food - Phillip is a meat and potato boy. He loves mashed potatoes and is not too keen of fruits and vegetables but we keep trying. He likes oatmeal - especially Maple and Brown Sugar, and cereal -
usually Cheerios. He also loves toast and eggs. He is still a little texture funny so we have to
keep giving him the same food a couple of times and then he takes it and loves it.
Toys - He still loves Cars, Monster Trucks, and likes to take bigger cars and run with them around the house. Or he will sit at the table and quietly play with cars. For his birthday Great-Grandma Hull gave him a Thomas the Train set and a couple trains to go with it and he loves trains! and likes to make train sounds. He also likes animals and making animal sounds. He also has an interest in Spider-man. He's never seen Spider-man, but during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade their was a Spider-man balloon and Phillip was so excited and dragged Phill from another room into the family room to show him the giant balloon. Since then we've gotten him a few Spider-man things and it's cute to see him get excited and say "Spid-man"Books - he us to read books and we are working on numbers and colors. I know he can count to 3 on his own and then he repeats what we say for the other numbers. Colors he can say green, blue, pink, and red. He likes to look at the pictures in the kid style Book of Mormon.
TV/Movies - Phillip really enjoys watching the animated Mr. Bean tv series. He thinks he's so funny and it's so cute to hear him laugh. He also just became interested in Super Hero Squad which is the superheros like Capt. America, Hulk, Thor, Iron-Man is cartoon style for kids. He likes Aladdin and the scene when Aladdin and Abu are in the Cave of Wonders and they meet Carpet is his favorite part and he laughs in hysterics over it.
Phillip is also beginning to talk more and put sentences together. The first sentence he said was, "Hurry Mom to the potty." We tell him that if he starts to grunt to hurry and run to the potty so it was cute to hear him say it too. He loves to play with Avery and he calls her, "Ah-lie" still can't quite get the "V" sound. And he is still our cuddle bug and insists on sitting on our lap if we are watching TV together as a family.
He loves to run around outside, play at parks and go down the slides by himself, he is learning to jump with both legs. He likes to sing songs which is either Twinkle Twinkle Little Star or ABC's, the tune is the same and he does more humming than actual singing. He loves music and likes to sway to the music or dance and jump around. But if he listen's to a song for a while he picks up on the notes and hums it. He is also our little helper and likes to help Dad outside, and help with the dishes
At 2 years Phillip weighs 25.6 lbs (25%) and 34 inches tall (50%).
We love our Phillip Jamekins!
