From 1 to 2!
What a difference a year makes when you're little. Some of Nathan's greatest accomplishments this year include: walking, talking, and growing hair that sticks straight up no matter what length it is. Sometimes it seems like Nathan has been two for a long time, but I think that is just because he isn't the baby. Today was his big birthday and he loved it. Almost every present this year had wheels and he was so happy about it. I'm not sure he needs anything for Christmas now. We took the kids to the Children's Museum last night to celebrate and did presents, cake, and pumpkin carving today.

This month Nathan's favorite game to play is "lawnmower". He made it up himself and used the doll stroller as the lawnmower. He insisted on always wearing shorts with pockets so that he could stuff little bits of toilet paper in the pockets. We all quickly realized he did this to look like Brian because Brian shoves trash bags in his pockets when he mows our lawn. While we're glad that he used the doll stroller for "boy play" the toy lawn mower was an easy birthday present choice. We must love him a lot to have purposefully brought an extremely loud and obnoxious toy into our home.
