Double Celebration

21st January 2011 By Susan Mann 16 Comments

Today is my baby boy’s second birthday. What a difference a year has made and how quickly it has went by. He had been walking for four months this time last year, so he was quite confident but he wasn’t talking. Come fourteen months he still hadn’t said a word, then all of a sudden he said everything, Wednesday came before Mummy and Yogurt came before banana. This little one seems to miss the baby stuff, like waving and clapping hands to crawling and walking, instead of animal sounds to full sentences. But every baby, toddler and child are different, and develop at a different speed, which makes them wonderful and unique in their own way.

This has been an amazing year. I love it when their wee personalities come through. Tyler is a funny little boy, who goes out of his way to make you laugh, whether he is putting a bin on his head or playing peekaboo through is clothes. He is the smiliest happiest baby with the biggest temper, if he doesn’t get his own way you know all about it. But when he is out and about he give everyone a big smile and they stop and talk to him. He flashes those big blues and that cheeky chappy grin his has, he would get a piece at any one’s door so the grannies say.
Here is a picture of him this morning on his birthday, trying out his new trike. The other one is a picture from his birthday last year. He has changed and grown so much. Happy Birthday to my gorgeous two year old, Tyler. I love you.
Today is also my blogs anniversary. Happy Blogoversary to me. Today one year ago I started a blog, here is the link to my very first post. It was Tyler’s birthday story.  I started off on WordPress then changed to Blogger a few weeks later, hence the date on the post is a little different, but today’s date is one year from when I started blogging.
I started out blogging after being on twitter for sometime, I followed a lot of other mummy bloggers, whom I got a wealth of help and information from. I also made a lot of good friends, some of whom I got to meet at Cybermummy and some I class as some of my closest friends even though I have never meet them in real life. I truly love and am grateful for everyone of you. One person in particular encouraged me to start my own blog and is still there giving me so much encouragement and support. I have never me her in real life but I hope that changes this year. Thank you to my twitter twin aka (Mostly) Yummy Mummy, thank you twinny for everything.
Also thank you to my family who are patient when I freak out about having so much blog posts to do as I’m so behind. Thank you to my hubby, Robert who also has his own blog about having ME. You are an amazing support and I love you very much.
I have loved blogging, from the personal stuff about how I felt about my cesarean scar, to sharing pictures of my boys, to sharing my reviews and comments with you all.
Thank you each and everyone of my followers on my blog and twitter. I love you all.
Here’s to a great birthday and a fantastic year for Tyler and another great year of blogging with more stories to share.
