Granticus Maximus

I no longer have a two year old, he turned three today.  He is affectionately called by many names, Granticus Maximus, Grants pants, Grantzy Pants, and even Granticus Panticus.  Who knows I rhyme names for some odd reason, always have, probably always will all my pets names have have had nicknames that rhymed.  What can I say I am a weirdo.  Mostly around the house you will just hear a loud GRANT!!!!  from any one of the family members. 

So my little monster is three today and it boggles my mind.  I keep on thinking about what was going on Three years ago.  So much has happened since then. I must say though I am not sad that he is one year older,  I am very excited, he still pulls out the I don't understand card.  He does understand but he is in the in-between stage of talking, he can say a lot but communication is not a two way street fully.  So the older he gets the better the communication and hopefully the better the behavior

I wonder who he is going to grow up to be.  He is definitely an interesting child.  He has the ability to have people instantly fall in love with him.  Everyone loves Grant.  So apparently he has the cute and charm down for sure.  He is cute I agree, but he doesn't charm me he drives me up the wall for me he has the ability to instantly drive me crazy, he is constant and extreme for me, of course for everyone one else he is an angel.  He does not act up or act out for anyone the way he does for me, I don't know what I do to inspire this in him, you would think hey I am the person who takes care of him and loves him and does things for him he would hold me in high esteem but instead it is the opposite.  But thats ok we will make it. He is my little monkey, I have not seen anything the kid can't climb or tries to yet.  In fact the other day when we were off to go pick up my husband from the airport I had opened the garage door and he grabbed on to it and was going to the top before I noticed and ran and grabbed him off of it.  I think we were both in a state of surprise with that one.

Regardless of how crazy he makes me I do love him and look forward to seeing him grow into an amazing man.

And there is his sweet smile.  He is Mr. Extreme, if he is good, he is super good, if he is sweet he is so sweet you could just eat him up, if he is mischievous its not just a little its to the max.

Happy Birthday my Dear Grant!!!
