Silas-29 months

At 29 Months Silas is becoming very verbal. He has many phrases and sentences he puts together. Lately many things have become "scary", "exciting", "funny" or "awesome". Lately instead of saying "yes" he has been saying "exactly". He is quite the character. It is amazing how many emotional/feeling words he uses to describe events.

Silas loves to learn and he is a fast learner. He can count to 10, recognize his numbers, recognize his ABCS, recite the ABCs almost entirely by himself, colors, and shapes. He can sign probably 50 plus words thanks to the Signing Time videos. Sister can too.

He loves to play on the ipad. We have a couple of toddler friendly games and he frequently asks, "game at table" or "game at couch". I make him add "please".

Silas is obsessed with cars, trains, and planes. He is such a boy. He is really starting to enjoy rough housing with daddy too. He likes to watch Thomas the Train and calls him "Tommy".


Silas is definitely starting to show the will power of a 2 year old. He is learning to control his emotions, but often gets easily carried away in his frustration. This has been a learning situation for Mommy and Daddy. During these situation he likes to flail his body. We affectionately refer to him as Mr. Noodle then.

Silas is also very affectionate. He loves to hug and make conversation with us. The new thing for he and Lucy is to try to tickle Derek and I. They think that is hilarious.

He gets scared easily and comes to us for reassurance. He used to like Veggie Tales but now he is scared of it. He is also scared of Grover on Sesame Street. There is also an episode of Yo Gabba Gabba that Jack Black guest stars in. We can't even watch that one because he is screams in sheer terror when he sees Jack Black.





Silas loves to dance and jump. He automatically starts swaying his shoulders whenever he hears music. Silas still loves all fruit. It is always the first thing he wants to eat. He also still enjoys sucking his thumb. When asked if he wants to be a big boy and use the potty he squeals "No!" while shaking his head. His sister does the same. :/
