22 Months!

Every month we inch closer to my little guy being 2, and it turns out he is not so little anymore!  His mind is always turning and I have a feeling he is going to be quite a bit like his big brother (in both good and challenging ways!).  He is a little tornado of destruction and he has really developed his temper tantrums lately.







His month picture-getting more and more difficult for him to sit still.












Ike has been obsessed with taking golf cart rides with our neighbor Mike this summer.  I finally snapped a picture of them cruising around-of course Dave was not cooperating.






Pretty typical of the kids-Dave is refusing to do what I ask and Ike is not wearing a shirt.












All of his interests center around heavy machinery (tractors, lawn mowers, etc.) and anything that makes a loud noise (weed eaters, sweeper machine).  A couple weeks ago we had a new roof put on our house and ever since then Ike has kept repeating, "roof all done?" because it was super loud all week and he was tired of hearing it!  Now he has a whole routine saying, "lawn mower all done, sweeper all done, roof all done?".  He says it every time I lay him down-I guess he doesn't want his sleep interrupted by loud noises!







Don't worry, Ike always wears his ear protection while operating his blower  :)











Ike can now count to 3, can kind of tell the difference between colors (still won't identify on his own though), his favorite book is Goodnight Goodnight Construction Site, and he loves to pretend call all of his grandparents using anything that even somewhat resembles a phone (remote control, camera, etc.).







The boys had a rough bath time without dad the other night.  I couldn't resist a picture!













Ike learned to ride the scooter this week!  Here's a video of him scootering around the driveway.






And here's what happened when I told him he had to go inside because it was raining.












We are pretty sure Ike is coming down with hand, foot, and mouth since half our neighborhood currently has it.  Right now he just got over a fever and has a couple of bumps, so we will see.  Anyway, he would not go to sleep last night so we let him come hang out with us while we watched TV.






So cute!  Here's a video of him running around when he was supposed to be asleep.
