Exploring WPB!

Despite all of Logan's recent terrible two behaviors, this is still my favorite stage by far! He is so fun!! Finally getting into art projects (loves to color with markers, play with play-doh, and paint) and he is so into role playing. He's always getting out his doctor's kit to check on his stuffed dog and baby doll and feeds all of them (and his cars too!).

His vocabulary is still a bit limited but it is growing every day! He has been saying "yes I do" to certain questions, and just the other day he started saying "yes I did" also. So cute! But he also has a bunch of really annoying words that are on repeat ALL the time - crash, car, truck, pieces (usually used to refer to a missing piece in a puzzle or on a toy), choo choo, juice, milk, and snack. Sometimes I swear he sounds like a broken record, lol.

He is also so outgoing! Must have gotten that from his daddy, lol. He wins the hearts of all the old ladies by waving bye to each one he passes. He also has no fear of new situations! Any time he sees a group of kids and a fun place he just runs right in and jumps in the action. Love it!

The moms group here is really nice so far. We went to the Valentine's party at Okeeheelee park, which is a really awesome (Huge!) park with multiple play areas, a lake with paddle boats, bike trail, tennis courts, and nature center. Logan had a good time on the playground! The one benefit to moving is scoping out new places to go - we passed a cool looking park on the way to story time at the Wellington library the other day so I pulled a u-turn and we skipped story time. This park was basically just like Deerwood Rotary in Jax, only bigger! It was also right next to a gigantic city aquatics center.

Yesterday we checked out a program called Little Blessings at the First Baptist Church of Royal Palm Beach. I was a little skeptical at first, but it turned out to be amazing!! It was pretty much just a free version of Gymboree - they led the kids in songs, stories, and dances and brought out stuff to play with - a parachute, beach balls, ride on horses, Pom poms, bean bags, etc! It's twice a week, so we'll definitely be back.

Our apartment is literally in the middle of nowhere...the only stuff around for miles is a Publix shopping plaza, which happens to be about one minute away. I'm looking forward to finding a place to rent that's a little closer to all of the moms group activities! Driving 25 minutes to everything is getting old very quickly!
