Aurora Borealis

Hard to believe, but our little guy turned two yesterday!  We had a good day.  We went to story time at the library (the two-year-olds group!) and at the end everybody sang “Happy Birthday” to him.  He got a phone call from Grandma when we got home, and then during lunch, since Daddy was working from home, he got to open his presents.

He got a dress up doll we’ve named Zack, and a book of nursery rhymes with a sing-along CD.  Both seem to be hits.  Zack got dragged around everywhere, and now The Agent has decided he needs to wear Zack’s wristwatch.

In the afternoon The Agent made his regular trip to the mailbox with Daddy and found a birthday card from Grandma.  All in all a good day.

However, in the last week or two, The Agent has seemed pretty intent on NOT napping.  It still seems to me like he needs it, but he just refuses.  I’ve started putting him in the playpen for naps so he doesn’t have the option of getting up and playing, but he’s still not sleeping.  If he really drops the nap already, Mommy may have to run away from home!  For the last few days, since he wouldn’t nap, we’ve just started putting him to bed a little earlier.  We’ll see…

Oh, and I forgot to mention that on Monday, Agent Murphy figured out how to climb up onto his big boy bed by himself.  Hooray!  And over the weekend he started singing along to the Matlock theme.  (“Dah dah dah dah duh, dah dah dah dah duh…”)  Yeah, that’s our boy.
