Joey's TWO!!

My sweet baby - the one who made me a mother for the first time - is two years old.

Time is flying.

- The biggest event of Joey's March was becoming a big brother.  He is an INCREDIBLE big brother.  He has loved on Hunter since the moment they met.  One of his favorite things to do is hold Hunter.

- He rode the horse at King Soopers for the first time.  We've been trying to get him to ride the horse for a while, but he has always refused - wanting off the minute the horse started moving.  Then one day, he stayed on and didn't ask to get off right away.  We were proud of him.

- We spent a lot of time with grandparents in March.  Joey loved having special time with them.

- We dyed Easter eggs.  I loved seeing Joey's excitement and wonder as the eggs went into the water white and came out a different color.

- We celebrated Easter.  We did a small Easter egg hunt in the morning, Neal and Joey went to church, and then we went to Neal's aunt's house for dinner.  It was a very low key, enjoyable day.

- Joey's done really well at entertaining himself while I'm taking care of Hunter.  His independence is increasing, and so is his confidence.

- Joey's vocabulary is growing by leaps and bounds.  He is putting together 3-4 word sentences, and his comprehension is astounding to me.

We love this sweet boy and are so grateful that he's a part of our family!
