24 reasons I love Easton

Easton is 2! I can't believe it, it doesn't seem like it has been that long since we brought him home from the hospital! It took us a year and a half to get pregnant with Easton, and even then I think Parker was shocked, nervous, excited, scared, etc. 8 months and 1 week of pregnancy and 17 hours of labor and he was here! My mom was with us in the delivery room and all three of us cried when we heard his little cry--it sounded more like a kitten's meow.

I am dedicating this post to my sweet boy. Since I have way more than 2 reasons why I love him, I decided to do 24, for 24 months. There are more than 24 also, but you get the point.

1-He made us a family, not just a couple.

2-He made me a mommy.

3-I got to see Parker in a whole new light holding his new little son, shining with joy.

4-He helped me love my parents even more.

5-When he randomly give me hugs and kisses.

6-When he tells me to "Sit" so we can read stories or play with his toys.

7-The way he backs himself up to me when I am sitting on the floor and plops down on my lap, like it is the only place he belongs.

8-The way he gets excited for almost anything.

9-The way he tells me stories with just his hands and his eyebrows!

10-The way he loves his little sister.

11-How he gets so excited to see Parker and makes Parker so happy.

12-How he loves any gift, even a pair of socks.

13-How he loves all his stuffed animals and is so sweet with them.

14-The way he says, "Aww" when he sees something sweet or cute.

15-How he freaks out about the lint between his toes.

16-That he loves to read books, just like Mommy.

17-How he and Parker rough house and behave just how boys should behave.

18-How he will giggle at the stupid things Parker and I do.

19-When he does his funny face.

20-When he makes a hat out of his bowl full of Spaghettios.

21-How he will sing into anything that he thinks could be a microphone.

22-How he is so empathetic towards people.

23-When he wears Parker's and my shoes around the house.

24-How he is 2 years old and still likes to cuddle with Mommy.
