Our baby boy turned two on March 1st. We celebrated with a small car-themed birthday party. Silas thoroughly enjoyed himself, loved being sung to, and left most of the present-opening to his older brothers, who were happy to help out.

At two years old, Silas is loud, expressive, happy, and likes to be the center of attention. He knows what he wants, and he wants it now. He doesn’t see any reason why he shouldn’t do what his big brothers do, and wants to be involved in whatever they’re doing, whether it’s a good idea or not. He does not think he needs a bib, prefers not to use a booster seat, likes Legos, and would really like to ride a bike. He mimics what his brothers say, complete with their intonations. He has a pretty deep voice for someone his age, his favorite word is no, and he loves cars, playing outside, dogs, and his big brothers.

At his well child visit last week, Silas weighed in at 26 lbs 4 oz, and was 34″ tall. This makes him our skinniest, shortest two-year-old yet.

Happy birthday Silas Tristan! We love you!
