Where does the time go? Just 2 1/2 years ago we picked up a little 17mth old boy who was around 11Kg and 85cm tall. Now he is almost 18Kg and 104cm tall.
Mario seems to be a happy settled boy with a cheeky smile, an infectious giggle and a love of anything with wheels (and preferably those with 22). Of course there is the other ratty side that goes along with it but a smile and a laugh makes all that fade into insignificance.
What a birthday celebration it has been. It started with cupcakes with his friends at gymbaroo followed by Fathers Day celebrations combining with birthday celebrations. That all included presents and cake (a bear one this time). That then turned into his "real" birthday on monday with cupcakes at childcare (all in all I made 50 or so cupcakes) and party food and burritos followed by another cake - this time chocolate covered in mini teddy bear biscuits. Yes ... we had a bear theme this year.
Of course there were presents and if it had wheels it was a huge hit. Must say the games, books and toys have been keeping us busy in the evenings and before we know it bed time has arrived. Check out the look of concentration!!
It has been a wonderful celebration and another magnificent milestone in Mario's life. I wonder what lies ahead in the next 12 months .......
