Two!!!!!!

We celebrated Will's second birthday a few weeks back and we are behind, but we have had a bit going on. In the last month or 2 we have bought a house, moved, sold a condo, adopted a cat, and that is just the big stuff.

He had a great time at his pool party, here are some pics. Special thanks our family members who helped make his second birthday a really fun time for us and the kids.



Ready for my big day.....



Holding hands with Uncle Brian.....



In the pool with cousin Lizzie and cousin Zoe. This was the best picture I have of the three of them in the pool, surprisingly nobody was willing to pose and look at the camera.

Delicious birthday cupcakes baked by Grandma Barbara. Yummie!



Opening presents with Mom.....

Thanks so much to our family and friends, for all the great gifts. Special thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Trevor for hosting the party and all the work they did.

BIG NEWS!

We haven't blogged much lately because really, nothing new has been going on at all.
But today, something REALLY BIG happened. Will made a pee-pee in the potty at school today. Great success! We are super proud of our big boy, and as soon as we configure our tech gear, we'll put pictures up.

Will where have you been?

It has been a long time since we have blogged but I was told we still have some followers. While we have been gone Will has been doing lots of new things....

He knows all his letters (still has a little trouble with V and Y though), he waters plants, feeds the cat, makes coffee, vacuums and he is talking up a storm. He is very independent right now and we here "Will do" all the time meaning Will wants to do it. Now if Will doesn't get to do that can be trouble, tantrums are also part of the action. Still getting used to that.....

With all the recent rain we have had Will is very concerned with flooding, erosion, and the affect its having on local wildlife. He wanted to get a water sample but this request was denied.



Will doing some "rocking" which is the act of picking up a rock examining it and moving it to a new location. Must be some purpose to this but I haven't figured it out.

Getting bigger every day....

Gettin Smart!

Will has been making leaps and bounds with his words the last few weeks. He can almost have a conversation on the phone now. Maybe not the most intelligent conversation but probably more intelligent than some conversations I have had. He is also starting to recognize books by name and identify things on flashcards, it is very exciting. On the negative side he loves to slam doors, tries to lock you out of the house if you put him in and don't get in the door quick, and he is climbing everything. He doesn't seem to understand "No" which is odd because I am sure we say that word to him more than most other words. We will keep trying....

Here is a video of a phonecall we had with Grandpa Bill and Grandma Barbara. Will is a bit suprised when Petey the dog joins the conversation.

Yankees Win Number 27!!!!!!!

After a long WS drought by the Boss's standards, the Yankees get WS title 27! For the Wright crew in Boston this seemed like an eternity. Was it the move to Boston that brought the Yankees down? Probably not. Washed up superstars like Kevin Brown, Randy Johnson, and Carl "American Idol" Pavano had something to do with it. For awhile Red Sox domination made Boston a tough place to live. Now the universe has order again, and there isn't so much tension up here.



This post is a little late but we were waiting for Will's gear to arrive from NY. Sources tell me Grandpa Bill and Grandma Barbara picked this shirt up from the stadium in the Bronx. Thanks for the great shirt and thanks to all our friends and family for keeping Will stocked with Yankee gear.
