Since my last update Jack continues to grow. He has no intention of slowing down, and though its so much fun to watch his personality grow, its sad that I am closer to having a toddler then a baby. He now says 4 words:
"MaMa"
"DaDa"
"Oggie" (doggie)
"Uh-Oh"
Doggie is by far his favorite thing in this world, and Bauer is starting to really like him back being that Jack feeds him his food. Jack loves to be outdoors, and loves going for walks and over to the park to swing. He also loves to have books read to him, but you have to read the ones with the thick pages because he has to be the one to turn the pages. His favorite books are:
"Sheep in a Jeep"
"This is the House where Jack lives"
"Water, Water Everywhere"
"Good Night Moon"
With Good Night Moon he is really funny because he only likes the pages that are in color. So as soon as you flip to a non-color page he quickly turns it to the next color page. Its a real struggle when Jeff reads him his book because Jeff's favorite page is "Good Night Nobody" which happens to be a non-color page to its a competition between the two of them to see if it gets to be read.
Another funny thing that happened recently is something our daycare lady told us. She takes care of a couple kids, but Jack is the only infant. So come nap time the rest of the kids sleep on mats in one room while Jack is in the play pin in another. Well one day she was putting the older kids down first so she was laying the mats out and Jack crawled up onto one and laid his head down. She said he kept looking up out of the corner of his eye to see if she was going to move him, but she said it was obvious he wanted to be a big kid and take his nap in there. So she gave him his blanket and he took a nap with the big kids. When he woke up he was so proud that he had slept on a mat he woke the other kids up laughing. Needless to say she hasn't let him do it again yet.
Here is some fun pictures of just a few things we have done over the last couple of months...

Jack loves his cousin Lucy, he was so concerned when she didn't like her bath he reached over and grabbed her hand.

He had so much fun, outdoors with doggie and grandpa... he was in heaven. He fought the sleep as long as he could, but eventually he gave in.
