The nice man at the "bottle store" (Daddy's favorite beer shoppe) gave me this delicious treat. I licked it very slowly in the car on the way home and then declared to Daddy, "I love my lollipop." These things are awesome.

Lollipop

Christmastime in Wilton
Some of our fellow Wiltonians are very very very excited about this time of year. Trevor likes their enthusiasm.
Santa Hayride!
New curtains!
Thanksgiving Turkey Trot
We went to Hagerstown for a great Thansgiving. Daddy ran in a very short running race with Steven and Uncle Mac. Though Daddy finished a long time after them. I was just amazed that so many people wanted to run on a day dedicated to eating. I had a lot of fun playing with my cousins and dancing around the gym. I discovered a new game -- close my eyes and run into a crowd of people. Hilarious.

Surprise!
One of my favorite things to do lately -- usually right before bath -- so I am naked -- is to run around and chase mommy and daddy. I try to sneak up on them and "surprise" them! Daddy caught me on tape. Surprise!!

Pacified
I decided yesterday that I would give my pacis to Baby Madeline at school. I told Mommy and she thought it was a great idea. I only use my pacis in the crib for naps and bedtime, anyway. I am a big boy now, and Baby Madeline probably needs them more than I do. So this morning we put all of the pacis into a little bag. I even got the secret emergency paci from the diaper bag (my idea) and headed off to school. I told Daddy in the car "I am not a baby anymore," as I looked at the bag of pacis in my hands. Baby Madeline happened to be on vacation in St. Thomas, but I presented the bag to Adrianna, her teacher and my longtime friend, for safe keeping. Everyone thought I was such a big boy and that I was being very brave.
Mommy and Daddy promised to take me to a Pizza Restaurant tonight for a special treat! That is the big news of the day.

Scarecrow Party
All of our neighbors on Tamarack had a party and each family built a scarecrow. It was so much fun. I had a great time playing in big pile of hay! Our scarecrow looks great on the front porch.
Daddy note: Trevor is in a very fun stage. He is curious, engaged and certainly engaging. He is a funny little guy with an infectious smile. At several times during the scarecrow party he ran into the leaves and woods. He is fearless -- and lapping up the fun of life. Coordination is coming, slowly, but he is starting to enjoy running around more and more. Mommy and Daddy continue to be obsessed with him.

Neighborhood Parade
2nd Birthday Party



Can you believe I am two?? Mommy and Daddy threw a fun party for me on the back deck. I had requested a "Monkey Cake" and they really ran with the theme. Tablecloths, masks, balloons, and even a huge inflatable "big brown monkey" all made the party very festive. I had a ball, and particularly loved the cake. The guest list included cousins Griffin and Sophia, Jackson and Clay, Walker and Zakary, Noa, Jake and Sienna. Tons of fun.
I continue to be obsessed with singing into available "microphones." I am also really enjoying trips to the library with Mommy. Want to read the new books we check out as soon as possible. Hard to believe I am 2. I have started a rigorous fall curriculum including swimming lessons and a tumbling class at the Wilton YMCA. So far I love the classes.

23 months
Still in the brown chair, after 23 months. Caught a bit of a black eye from a spill on my friend Sienna's play set, but I am recovering. I am closing in on two years, hard to believe! I love to talk, read, and sing into any available "microphone." I have amazed my parents more than once, pulling out words that I have only heard once, days before. Having a good time in CT, still like school a couple of days a week, but really love playing with Mommy. The summer went too fast, but I will take some fun classes (swimming, tumbling) in the fall, which will be great.

Breakthrough - Out of the crib
This morning I was getting dressed, Emily was in the shower, and Trevor started a typical singsong "Mooo-mmmy" from his crib in his room. I heard a bump, which was not too loud, and sounded like he was moving around in the crib. But then his bedroom door opened.
He was sitting in his "snuggle corner" reaching to open the door. He was with the "guys" with a paci in his mouth holding a book, having just alighted from his crib for the first time.
"Read a book," he said as I walked into the room.
"How did you get into the snuggle corner?" I asked.
He said simply, "climbed down from the crib."
Indeed.

Skaneateles Summer 2009
Had a great week in Skaneateles, where Mommy and Daddy got hitched and Grandma grew up. I swam and swam and swam. Love the lot, with its many wonderful rocks. I drove the boat. I slept in a tent. I survived the rain. I made "bean salad" in the gravel over and over again. Grandma and Annie are still my favorites.

Running
I can run pretty well. It is more like a shuffle, but it is fun. Especially when there are rocks involved.
Monday, July 20, 2009

Summer is rolling along, and we have had a lot of fun visitors over the last few days. Aunt Annie and all of the Puccini kids came over and went swimming with me at the Y last week. Aunt Meg came for dinner on Friday and we had a blast. Saturday Joe and Caroline came over with Elizabeth and Baby Brigid. Then on Sunday, Karen and Steve came by with Casey and Gavin. We are all exhausted, but I was a really good host.
I am 22 months now. I blew M&D away yesterday when I counted to 11, spontaneously, unprompted, and correctly! They are so silly. They don't know what I know. Last week I impressed them when I said "Galligan." Hello, people, it's my last name. Shouldn't I know how to say it?? The other big news is that I have been regularly using the potty for the past two weeks or so. I am pretty reliable in the morning, and somedays I have used it in the evening as well. It is a good place to reflect and read a good book. And everyone get so excited!

We headed South, which was lucky because the McLaurins did as well so we were all able to meet up for the Memorial Day Parade in Sharpsburg,...
