My Love
We went to Splash Lagoon this past wknd and you had a blast! You loved the little water slides and wading pool...and the Tiki bucket!
I had to record some of the precious things you're saying. Its sad because some of your baby language is fading. Things like "nilp" and "pizzie" are now the actual words - milk and pizza. You're still having trouble with your "L" when it's the starting letter, "lion" is "why-on."
Some cute phrases you have are "Please I do it?" and when I'm listing things or people you say, "And what others?" At night when I put you to bed you say, "Please you stay with me a little while?" and grab my hand.
You're the sweetest, most precious boy I know. You're starting to play so well with others and share.
We love you sooo much!!!!

You Are Awesome!
Latest fun things you've been saying:
"I wanna do it-all by my big self!"
"YOU ARE NAKED!"
Lately you love: Anything that goes; trucks, bulldozers, motorcycles. You ask if you can touch or drive anyone we pass by. You have told us that when you are big you are going drive a bulldozer!
We are starting to potty train with a chart and stickers. You have been peeing but not poop. You're not telling u when you have to go yet but will most likely go when we put you on it.
You are unfortunately still not sleeping well at night but you nap great for 2 hours. You're eating like a champ & love pizza, French fries, fruit, cheese sticks, Mac & cheese : )

It's been a long time
Well you've certainly been keeping us busy little boy...hence the lack of posts! Daddy told me that I MUST post about your first lie : ) You asked Daddy if you could watch a show and he said no. Then under your breath you said "Let's ask Mommy. Mommy, can I watch a show?" I said no. And I also told you that Daddy already said no. You then replied, "No, Daddy said yes!"
You are challenging us quite a bit these days. You're becoming very opinionated and head strong. Every day is different...some days you say OK if we tell you no. Other days you completely melt down. We are certainly becoming more & more educated on the "terrible 2's!"
However, with all of this also comes an incredibly sweet and super smart little boy...quickly leaving babyhood. Your hugs, kisses, & snuggles are the best part of my day. Watching you grow and learn new things everyday just takes my breath away. I love you so much it hurts sometimes!
At night, we have a routine of "doing ee-hees." It started when I would tickle you and say "ee-hee-hee." Now every night in your crib you say, Come on Mommy, ee-hees!" Its so precious!!!!!

Almost 2
Your birthday party is this Saturday and I just cannot believe it! You have grown up so fast. Your vocabulary is exploding lately. All of a sudden you started singing new full songs...not even parts of songs but the WHOLE SONG! Currently in your soundtrack: twinkle twinkle, bingo, Old Mac Donald the farmer in the dell, abc song, itsy bitsy spider. But you do favor the abc song and sing it over and over and over again!!!
You're starting to have little conversations w us and are saying things like "Oh, Cool," "I'm tryin to ..." and "Jack do it!"

Big Boy
New things you're saying and doing: "Oh Shoot!" Also if mommy or daddy say oh shoot or are struggling in some way you say, "What Mommy?!" it sounds more like vhat since you don't have your "w" sound down yet : )
You are also learning to sing, "Elmo's World" and the Sesame St theme song. You LOVE dancing and especially like CeeLo Green - "Forget You."
Favorite books right now are Elmo's Favorite Places, 100 First Words, the Crayola ABC book, and the Little People farm book. You also love playing w your kitchen and in the dirt in the front of the house.
We recently had your first zoo visit. We went w Teresa, Madison & Abigail. We had so much fun!

More new words & phrases...
You're saying "Cool" a lot if you like something. You can say your ABCs but you always skip V : ) You've been saying "Jack Do" and "Help?" when there is something that you'd like to help us with. Everything that is too hard is "Heavy!"
The other day we were getting ready for bed and you've come up with a new routine on Mommy's Bed. We had people over so I was trying to hurry you along but you protested by squirming out of your diaper and saying "naked baby!" So I let you do your naked baby dance to music on the clock radio : )
We also went to the museum last week and I asked you, "Jackson do you want to go to the museum?!" You thought really hard for a minute and said, "Mommy, zoo-mey (museum) Yo Gabba Gabba?" You remembered the Yo Gabba Gabba dolls in the museum shop window from months ago! And you don't even watch that show! You're amazing! Also, we've taught you today that Johnny is in Vegas & Auntie is on a "big boat!"

Cute baby story...must tell
So last night I came home to a baby who was so engulfed in Barney that he was ignoring my need for many hugs & many kisses after not seeing him all day! When he finally snapped out of it, I said, "Hey! I have not got 1 kiss or 1 hug from you! What the heck! You come here!" Then the very cute baby said, "How about......10?!" I think Mommy and Daddy both melted right then and there....

Jack & Mommy Day
I love our Jack & Mommy days so much. Today was so simple, but my idea of a perfect. We went to the museum after breakfast. You had so much fun at Sesame St/Elmo's World w Mr. Noodle, driving the taxi cab, and dancing. We also rode the train for first time. You were scared at first but quickly recovered and then didn't want to get off : ) You played w the model trains and loved looking at the huge fish tank. We went upstairs and colored a picture for Daddy.
You quickly fell asleep on the way home and napped at home as well. We had lunch and then you "exercised" w Mommy!!! You were so cute copying the moves! You quickly lost interest but played w your trains so I could finish : ) You are such a great boy!!
We then took a shower/bath. Your bathroom is being remodeled so you are bathing in a Rubbermaid bin (& loving it!!!!)
After getting clean, we started dinner. You stood on your stool and "helped" Mommy. I gave you some snacks and let you play in the utensil drawer to stay occupied! You are so cute, wanting to help w everything. You even say "help" now after we tell say what we're doing : )
Daddy got home late but you ate a great dinner first and we ate later. You had some whole wheat pasta w butter & Parmesan, asparagus, and some chicken breast. You've had such a HUGE APPETITE lately. For example...today's menu. Breakfast: toast w pb& j, milk and one whole banana. Snack: Cheerios, Second snack/1st lunch: 1 rice cake, cheese stick, several carrots & peas, juice (would have been more but we were on our way home from the museum and that's all I brought!) Lunch: 2 slices of turkey, entire yogurt, entire clementine, & wheat thins. Another snack: popcorn chips, more cheese stick, 1/2 of an apple, water. Then above mentioned dinner. THEN...blueberries before bed : ) Books and night-night. Love you Boosy!!! You are the greatest & I am truly so lucky to have been blessed w you.

Super Cute
You are SO CUTE!!!! You are so cuddly since you've been sick. You call it "snuggles!" You have also been learning your shapes & colors and call a pentagon a "penc-a-gone." Aaaah, I can't stand it!!! You seem to finally be feeling a little bit better : )

Sicky : (
Today you are SUPER sick. Mommy's home from work with you today & possibly tomorrow. My poor angel. You have slept about 4 hours each of the last 2 nights, with no nap. The doc says its viral + you have your 2nd set of molars poking through. He said that can be the start of an ear infection as well so he gave us amoxicillin. Last night was scary and awful for all of us. It seemed as though you were having night terrors. You wanted to go to sleep so bad but just couldn't. You coughed and coughed and were crying and frustrated. Finally you fell asleep at 12:30 on the couch until about 5. We all slept on the couch. Today you've been napping for about an hour now but I still hear you constantly coughing : (
Looking forward to when you're better so we can have some fun!

You are amazing
Today I watched you playing in awe. I cannot believe the amazing little boy you've become. You will be two in four months...it's so unbelievable how fast time has gone by.
As you were playing, counting, & talking away I felt myself float out of the moment and really grasp how amazing life is. I think you are the best possible thing that could have ever happened to me.

Angel Baby
I'm having a hard time leaving you this am : ( It's tough when I'm with you for four days in a row, then away for 3. I shouldn't complain, most mothers have a 2:5 day ratio.
You have been so amazing lately. Your personality is blossoming more everyday as we watch you move from our baby to a little boy. It's bittersweet. It's so cool to be able to communicate with you and witness you learn about the world. But I miss rocking you, feeding you, and holding you.
Today you pulled out a plastic pear from you play kitchen fridge & said - "Ta-Da!!" You cooked me some corn on the stove and gave me a plate full of fruits & veggies : ) You are saying "Peeeease" &"Tank oo" (thank you!) I'm so proud of the way daddy & I have raised you so far. I know it sounds more like the ramblings of a "braggy" parent but you really are SO SMART!!!!! At 20 months you can count to 20 and can recognize almost every letter, A-Z! You are way beyond most babies your age.
All of that aside, I have a love for you that I never knew I was capable of having for anyone other than your daddy. You are truly my Angel Baby, sent from God to make us smile : )

Today Daddy started a blog for us to document all of the cool things you are doing! Today, while coloring I started writing the alphabet & you named almost every letter! At 20 months, that's pretty impressive! You are also able to count to 20 (with a little help). We are so proud of you Jack Jack!
