You are now 2 years old! oh boy!
What a great party you had for your birthday. We did it at Mamie's house as we were so many of us. All your aunts and uncles and cousins were there and Marilyn and her daughter and Julie and her whole family and Lucie with her twin daughter, Chantal and Richard, Jaqueline and Katherine, Manon and her daughter Sarah-Mai and your Aunt Leona. You were so happy to see everyone. You just loved the attention. We sang Bonne Fete Alexandre about 3 times during the day and you just loved it. You would clap or say "Encore". You made everyone laugh and made them feel special as you would go and see them and just give them a hug.
When it came to opening the gifts, oh boy, you were in heaven, not to sure if it was the gifts or the tissue paper you like but you were just having fun! Then it was cake time after dinner, we ordered you a chocolate cake with a "finding Nemo" fish. Your eyes and your smile just got bigger as you saw the fish on the cake. It was so much fun to watch your reaction. I have to admit that you eat all your piece of cake too! Then we would ask you, quel age a tu? and you would reply with a big smile "j'ai 2 ans" and made everyone laugh.
What a beautiful day it was to be with family and friends to celebrate your 2nd birthday.
Love you Alexandre
Mom

What a fun family we had once again, we went apple picking! it was so much fun. You were in haven when we parked the car and started to walk towards the entrance. There was a small farm with a horse, a donkey, goats, sheeps, baby pigs, ducks, rabbits and you got to feed them too! You father showed you how to hold your hand to feed them and you did it! it was fun to watch. Then we stood in line to go apple picking, I think you were overwhelmed when you saw all the trees with the apples, so you picked one and you started to eat it. After that, we had a nice pique-nique and then you played in the "park" section, there was so many slides, you just did not know where to go - lol - I think you played there for a good 30 minutes then it was time for your tractor ride -OH Boy! what a smile you had, plus, they even let you sit on the tractor so we can take pictures. It was such a great day! I am hoping to this again next year!
Love you Alexandre

I wanted to write to you today because there is so much I wanted to tell you and I just did not want to forget...
You will be two years old in a few weeks and I wanted to let you know at 23 months what you like and don't like and what you do, so I figured I better write it down before I forger as you are growing up so fast!
Lets see, I have say that your favorite animal is an Elephant, you love make the sound and you smile each time. You also do lots of different animal sounds too like; a cow, a cat, a lion, a dragon, a sheep, a dog and you grin each time you do it too. And if we ask you the colour of an article you always say "jaune' - just seems that yellow is your favorite colour or word, not to sure yet, you do talk a lot, you say a lot; Je veut sa or Papa/Maman assie. Or you will say "en bas" as lots of your toys are in the basement and so much more.
You are getting independent each day, you can go up and down the stairs going towards your bedroom, you hold on to each bar one by one but you do get to the bottom or top so proud. You sometimes hold our hands, but you prefer doing it alone.
Yesterday, you took me by surprise as we went for our first train ride to meet your father downtown and as we were walking, you started to sing, first I had no clue what you were saying but then I realized that you were actually singing - la la la la la bong bong bong bong - la la la la la bong bong. Alexandre you were so adorable, it was so funny to watch, then I started to sing with you and that made you even happier!
I have to admit that I understand you 90%, your vocabulary is just expanding and I know that you understand a lot too. It is so much fun.
Now, I don't want to forget your dad, as he is your best playing partner. You play hide and seek with him, and you always find him or he finds you. It is so funny as when he finds you, you run to me just laughing your little heart out and you say "encore" "encore". Then after your bath, all three of us play ring a round a rosie, we normally do it 3 times but you do ask for that game each night and you always make sure that all three of us are playing together. You are so funny!
Lets talk about bed time. We always kept a routine with you. After dinner we play, then at around 7:00pm it is bath time and your father normally gives you your bath and you just love it. Then you come back down and sit on the couch while you drink your milk. Once it gets close to 8:00pm, we tell you that it will be bed time soon. You normally look at us and start to walk towards the stairs. Next thing we know you are going up the stairs to go to bed. There is not crying or screaming, you just go up like a big boy. Now, when you go up the stairs, your father is behind you and I tell you that I love you, then you stop and give me a kiss and smile.
What a fun child you are! you smile, you say bye-bye to everyone, you give your daycare friends a hug each time you leave and then wave and send them a kiss. Everyone finds you so adorable. And we can't forget the high five that you have been doing for a long while.
I just love you
Mom
