Oh No! Not this milestone!

I guess it's a milestone of sorts. Caught me by surprise and I'm not sure I even reacted appropriately! Ryan hit his friend in the face with a crayon, balled up in his fist. The whole day had been a challenge to that point and it did not get any better after the incident. I don't think anything even provoked it, but I guess all kids do it - or at least try a few times. I was shocked! It's a real eye opener in that he's turning into a little boy with an agenda, thoughts, feelings etc. Thank you Lindsay for being so understanding when Ryan hit your boy! We're sorry!

Oh goodness - no need to apologize! Ryan is just becoming an independent, opinionated toddler who is asserting himself...not unlike another little someone I know. :) We love Ryan and enjoy watching him develop into a little boy. This stuff is just part of the ride.

He's getting so big and such a handsome boy!! The girls are constantly hitting each other to the point where I wonder if I should be stepping in more. But, they don't seem to take thier aggression out on other kids just yet. So maybe it's a twin thing??
