This kid! I've said many times this month that if given the opportunity, I would totally change his middle name to a one that means joy. He truly lights up our life. A little about Jack...
-he's totally obsessed with my sun hat
-he started addressing us by name when he wants something (mama and dad)
-he has a super special bond with his older younger sister
-loves swinging on our porch swing out back
-said porch swing was also responsible for the facial injuries pictured in another recent post...
-he's totally, completely attached to his binky
-we need to take it away but I just can't yet
-I mean look! totes adorbs
-he LOVES hanging out with friends
-he gets particularly excited when the girls have older kids over
-he participates in their play as best he can (which usually means he runs around in circles yelling and laughing)
-he's talking more and more - so far just individual words and no sentences
-he says thank you when you give him something (I don't recall ever teaching that!)
-and he cheerfully says "nigh nigh" on his own when you get him out of his high chair after dinner, expectantly waiting for you to put him to bed
-he's an awesome, happy sleeper
-and no, I have no magical sleep secrets except to recommend having yourself a Jack. he's awesome
-he's a busy bee
-always moving around furniture and climbing on it to reach new heights
-he gave up the high chair for a horrible period which you can read about here if you want more details
-he's been helping me in my garden and he thinks those nursery flatbed carts make a pretty swell ride
-he's totally FREAKED of sand and getting dirty
-it's sort of just a little bit hilarious
-he's all boy in so many ways except when it comes to dirt
-GET. IT. OFF.
-it cracks me up
-but he loves water so we FINALLY got him in the lake this weekend but it took nearly 2 hours of easing him in before he let his toes touch the sand
-and then after he needed every grain removed from his feet
-he's a silly and totally awesome kid!
