Aaron Andrès Seals
At 2½ years old, Aaron was a bundle of pure energy! And he specialized in the "terrible" of the "Terrible Twos."
He was getting along much better with his sister. He loved to be her clown, usually by getting into trouble running on the couch. (After one broken arm, that was the end of that!) When Mom kicked him off the couch, he tried to get Melissa to chase him around the room. On the other hand, he didn't want to share his toys with her, and pushed on her like he pushed on the cat.
His vocabulary was increasing, though his clarity had not. We were working to replace whining with words, which looked to be a long process though there was progress. Aaron had become a big fan of the library and got 5 new books every 3 weeks for daily storytime reading. Daily songtime had made the biggest difference in his vocabulary - he loved to sing!
We had started potty training, but he really only used the potty at night after his bath. We felt it would be an even longer process than ending the whining! But there was no rush.
There were alot of pictures (6 months worth), both from the digital camera and developed-then-scanned. Enjoy!
