Jack is 20 months old!
I have a toddler running, jumping and twirling around my house! I love it!
Just when I think my word count of his vocabulary is accurate, he starts
saying something new, but he has about 23 words that he regularly uses these
days. They are words like, “hot, cheese,
juice, uh-oh, mimmy (mommy), dada, ga ga (galleta/cookie), a-ta (agua), je-sus
(Jesus), gra gra (gramma), suz (zapatos/shoes), meow, moo, no no, two and
several more.
Lately we wake up and I put on Praise Baby while I finish
having time with Jesus. We both need our
time with Jesus to be happy! He LOVES
Praise Baby and Boz (Boz the Bear – a modern day, Christian Barney, but
cuter)...and the iPad apps. At 1.5 he can
slide the iPhone arrow over, scroll through the pages and find the icon that
withholds all his baby apps.
A-Mazing. Kids and
technology. A true phenomenon.
He is such a boy – hitting things with his bat, climing up
the door (literally), jumping on the furniture and loves dirt. Once we finish Praise Baby, we will begin
playing with toys or jumping off the couch or the bottom stair (did I mention
he likes to jump off things?) He will
look at me with a mischevious grin and say “two” and jump. He spent a week with my parents and there he
would climb on my parents bed and they would say “One, two, three...jump!” and
he would do as told happily! Funny how
just “two” stuck with him, but that means he is about to take a leap.
Within hours, Jack will be found pulling on the freezer door
yearing for a popsicle. He LOVES
pedialite popsicles and we obliged him pretty much every day... at night...it’s
good for him, right? Whenever Dada comes
home, it’s all about him! “Mimmy, mimmy”
is left in the shadows for dada’s great fun, tickles and yogurt. I love that he adores his father. It truly brings so much delight to my heart
to watch my son look at my David like he is looking at a hero!
So thankful to God for an energetic, loving and fun little
boy!
