TWO YEARS // Cort

Weight: Cort is 28 lbs and 34 inches tall. He did SO good at his Doctor's check up! He sat good when they checked his heart and his temperature, and stood really still when they weighed him!
Sleep: Cort has been doing pretty good with sleep, He still takes a nap around 1:00-1:30 for about a hour or two, we moved him to a twin bed about 5 months ago and that's worked great for him! When he wakes up from his nap or in the morning he knocks so sweetly on his door till we come and get him. He goes to bed around 7:30-8:00pm and wakes up anywhere from 6:30-7:30am.  
Eating:  Cort is still a VERY picky eater! Right now he likes string cheese, pancakes with reese's spread on it, goldfish, veggie straws, yogurt covered raisins, applesauce, *sometimes* fruit/veggie smoothies, and that's about it, everyday, every meal that's all he will eat. Its hard but I know he won't always be quite as picky, so I show him new food, but he usually just pushes it away. and I try not to stress about it!
Clothing: Cort is in size 2T in shirts and 24 month pants, pjs he is in size 24 month/ 2T, shoes he is in a 7 or a 8, and size 5 diapers.
Mood: Cort is such a HAPPY boy! He giving everyone hugs and staying "HI!". He is a very determined little guy. If he wants something done, he gets it done, he can't stand it when something isn't how it should be, and he is a very organized little guy, if he takes a book off his shelf during naptime, he outs them back when he wakes up! if He sees a door open that shouldn't be, or a cupboard door left open he makes sure it is closed. If he or I drops something when he's in his highchair he says "uh oh" till I pick it up.
Loves:  Cort Loves his baby sister Hazel, He is so so very sweet with her, he loves giving her hugs and kisses, putting her nuk back in her mouth and playing "sleepy time" on her play mat with her. He loves driving his trucks around and saying "vroom vroom" "Car!". Cort loves riding his bike around and honking the horn and saying "beep beep!" and he loves helping me cook, bake and clean in the kitchen, He loves his Polly goat and playing outside in the snow! But I think his favorite thing to do is to go to work with his Daddy and ride in the tractors with him!
Looking Forward To: I can't wait to see how Cort grows and learns this year, I cant wait to see the plan God has for him!
