Growing Up Too Fast

They used to be so little!

I've been wanting to write a post lately about what all my boys are up to now that they're 2. This is not that post. Someday, it'll get written. Hopefully, before they're 3. You all know I still haven't started their baby books.

For this post, I want to share 2 stories from my Tuesday at home with the boys. Two stories that show they are growing up way too fast for my liking. 

Jonas (aka Jonasty aka Joe Bear)

This morning Jonas picked out what he

The Bear.

wanted to wear. I was in the living room putting shoes on Julian when he came in carrying a shirt. He handed the shirt to me and said, "Mmmmon!!" Which in Jonas and Julian language translates to Monster Truck. Sure enough he had brought me a Monster Truck tshirt. I took it from him and set it aside, thinking he'd just go on about his business. Nope. He grouched at me and grabbed his shirt, "Mmmmon!!" Then he started tugging at his little pajamas shirt trying to get it off. So, I took off his pajamas and put his Monster Truck tshirt on; he was all smiles.

Julian (aka Cruelian aka Jules)

We went to the park today. The boys always have such a great time being outside and romping around on slides and such. Julian's favorite activity at this particular park (and let's be honest, at every park) is the tube slide. He goes up and down a hundred times. Never gets tired of it. Today, at his slide, their was a cute little girl playing. She was running around and screaming. Whenever the dudes see kids running and screaming, they join right in the hooplah. So, when this little girl popped out at the bottom of the slide and screamed with glee, Julian did the same. She took off to slide again, and he followed. He turned around, looked at me smiling, waved, and said, "Bye. See you." People, I am not kidding. He almost broke my heart.

Julian super coolian.
