My little boy, will not be so little!
Long time no post, but the holidays have been crazy with house guests. I hope everyone had an amazing holiday and is very blessed in the new year. I promis to post more when I have more than a minute.
Anyways, on to today's post. Garrett at two years of age.
We went to the doctor today for Garrett's two year check up. He got great reviews and most of all behaved while we were there. Every time the doctor touched him with his stethoscope, when he finished Garrett would say Thank you. Dr. Canizarro who was my doctor as a baby said that in over 30 years of practice he has never had a child thank him so much for the exam or be so polite. How funny!
Garrett measured 36 inches tall and 36 lbs (I think he gained a few holiday pounds). He is the 90th percentile for height and weight. Dr. C said that at minimum Garrett would be 6'1". Can you believe that? He also said get ready for the food bill, because little boys can eat. This I already know, the question is how much can big boys eat? Not looking forward to those grocery bills.

Just a few of my favorite things....
So Garrett has been super cute lately. We are making memories left and right. Just a few things to share how lucky we are.
I love it when... We tell Garrett is time to go to bed and we need to do the "Night, Night March!". We literally march and chant march, march night night march. Down the hall. Bill and I get the biggest kick out of watching him March his little bummy to bed.
I love it when... Garrett finishes at the dinner table and wants to get down...We blast off, Rocket Ship into the air. This simply consists of us counting down 3, 2, 1and throw him in the air. He gets the biggest grin on his face and laughs.
I love it when... We got a new kid music CD for Garrett's birthday. One of the songs is "Where is pointer". You know the one where they go through all of your fingers saying "Here I am, Here I am". When it gets to the pinkie he thinks that they are saying Binky (that is what we call it anyways, it may be paci, pacifier, the plug, etc to you). When the song says, Where is pinkie, he quickly guards his Binky and say no My Binky! I get the biggest laugh.
I love it when... We are potty training right now, oh how fun. Whenever Garrett is successful in his trip to the potty, he looks at me and says "I did it" with a big smile. He is so proud of himself and we are of him too.
I love it when... Each morning Garrett wakes us up around 6 am, so we don't hop out of bed to say the least. One of us will go and get him out of bed and he joins us in bed for a few minutes. Garrett always wants to be in the middle and says "Cover up Momma, Cover up Daddy". If one of us is still sleeping he will turn to the other and say, "Shhh Momma Sleeping" in a quiet voice. Then he will proceed to stealing the pillows from both of us.
I love it when... We go to pinch Garrett's Butt and he runs away and says no "My Bummy". We may have taken this game a little too far a couple of times as he has ended up in tears, crying My Bummy. My latest response was that Momma and Daddy made that Bummy and we can pinch it whenever we want to.
Just wanted to share some of the cutest things that we have discovered about this little man and his personality. We love that little guy!!!!

The Healy's House
Ok, so many of you have asked and I finally got my act together to get some pictures taken of the house and now here they are. Some before and afters for you too. We have done a lot of work to the house, while you may not be able to see, almost all of the walls have been painted. We still have the bedrooms and the bathrooms to paint, but one bathroom has already had a small makeover, Sorry Steelers bathroom! Hope you enjoy, I know that we do. We would love to have you, so come visit us in Florida!

Timbeeerrrrrrr.... Oh No! Christmas Tree!
Yes, you read correctly these are the words that I heard this morning, well maybe just the oh no! I was in the other room folding laundry while Garrett was "watching" Mickey Mouse, his morning cartoon. When all of a sudden I heard some bells ringing. We have decorated for the holidays so, I thought oh he got into some decorations. No big deal. All of a sudden I heard the tree crash down, Oh no, and tears! I think he was trying to pull one of the bells off the tree, when it came over on him. Needless to say I am so thankful that we purchased mostly wooden ornaments three years ago. We had a mess to clean up, but a little vacuuming later and some tissues...The Healy's Christmas tree was back in business. Now, instead of be gentle, we are teaching Garrett NO Touch!
Oh the joys of having a Two year old! I never thought I would have a Christmas tree fall over!

Happy Birthday to the loves of my life!
Happy Birthday to Bill today and Garrett tomorrow. Garrett will be 2 tomorrow! It is hard to believe how much he has grown and that we have grown as a family. We decided to celebrate the two with a little house work and a party to cap everything off. We had a blast with family and friends yesterday. We are so blessed to be surrounded by such love. Here are a few pictures from yesterday. I will also take some of the house and share them soon.
But first a look back...
Hiking with Garrett Spring 2008. My favorite Guys.

Grandpap (Bill's Dad) was even able to make it up for the celebration. He even got to read Garrett a few bed time stories. Thank you Grandpap!
