For New Year’s Eve we went to McKinney & celebrated with some friends.  All 4 couples had kids and it’s funny how things change once you have kids.
Sterling & Michael sharing my lap!
The New Year has already started off great!  Sterling is so much fun, funny and becoming smarter by the day!  I am amazed at how much he is learning and the stories he tells us when he gets home from school.  He remembers everything!
 
Making George’s bed
Sterling sings all the time (he must have got this from his dad) and even makes up his own songs!  He is very nurturing (I’m hoping this continues with Hudson) and loves his new “George” monkey he got for Christmas from his cousin, Brody.  
His new thing, which is more annoying, than cute is Sterling has become VERY INDEPENDENT!  He wants to do EVERYTHING himself.  “Nene do it,” plays like a broken record around our house.  Nene is what he calls himself, although he’s getting better at saying Sterling.  Needless to say, we are happy that he has reached this two year old milestone, but it takes us 2x as long to do anything!
 
Sterling most recent “smart” trick happened during bed time.  We had had a stool in his room when we were painting it, but finally removed it.  Of course, “Nene, do it.”  He had been using the stool to get into the rocking chair himself.  Without skipping a beat, noticing it was gone he went into his bathroom, got his stool, set it next to the chair and climbed up next to me.  I was amazed at his problem solving skills at 2!
