Words!

There have been a lot of pictures lately without my fabulous accompanying prose. No excuse, it's just how things have worked out. We did indeed have lots of visitors over the summer, and it's been an exciting time developmentally speaking It seems like Michael learns something new every day (and he probably does).

So what is life like with the 2-year-old Michael? Well...it seems there are new words added to his vocabulary all the time. So far, we haven't heard any words that a two-year-old shouldn't say, but I am sure that is just a matter of time. He really, really loves to throw things, and the very best things to throw (apparently) are things that Drew and I would rather not see flung across the room: toy trains, train tracks, books...we are working on improving that. He is extremely charming, and as evidenced by the video Drew posted a few weeks ago, he seems to have a pretty good crush on his friend Tess, or at least he really, really enjoys watching the video of them together.

Well, I would love to write more (and I will, I promise), but he and Drew just came home and I hear something that sounds rather angsty going on, so rather than leave you speechless (see what I did there?) for another prolonged period, I'll go ahead and post this update and hope that I post more in the not-too-distant future.
