The life and times of a 23 month old

Our 22 month old son must have heard us talking about him. Mom and Dad were figuring out how to socialize Toddler Mojo and he went and figured it out all by himself.

The life and times of a 21 month old toddler

As Toddler Mojo gets older and More Mojo is due to be born in a couple of months we’re trying to remember how to do everything again.
