we had emily, steven, and karis over for dinner the other night and karis sat in jack's old bumbo. jack saw it the next morning and HAD to play in it. his thighs got stuck a few times, but he had fun!
this is how jack plays with his bilibo! he also likes to put cars in there and balls.
it is FINALLY warm enough to go outside!! yay! jack and i went to the park on friday afternoon to play. he loved being outside!
a 3 year old little boy was playing with sticks and jack wanted to be just like him. he stayed by his side and wanted to do what he did. it was cute!
he found a ball and had a lot of fun!
molly came to birmingham this weekend to visit and to tell emily bye before she left for brazil. emily and steven, along with babyy karis, are going to brazil to be missionaries!! we are so proud of them and will be praying for them because i know it will be a huge culture shock and being that far away from family is hard. they are doing a great thing for the Lord and i thank them for that.
we had brunch over at emily's parent's house. it was yummy and jack had a blast playing with emily's old stove and sink toy.
jack wanted to be in the picture.
saturday afternoon johnny and i took jack out in our backyard to explore. well jack explored a little too hard and fell down. our backyard has a slight slope to it and he got going too fast and fell right on his face! he only cried for a few seconds then it was back to exploring. he is so tough!!
he skipped his nap saturday because he fell asleep on the way back from emily's. so after molly and i went to the store he stayed asleep in my arms for a quick cat nap.
we finally got our tree chopped up! it took 4 guys 3 hours to do it. jack really enjoyed watching them work.
jack in a box!
jack turned 16 months old yesterday!
some things about jack:
* no more baby food!!! jack just decided that he wanted to refuse babyfood at night about a week or two ago. so i took that as a hint that i needed to really try real solid food for him. no more bad gag reflex. thank goodness!
* his favorite foods are:
- cheese quesadilla with "d" (dip)
- veggie chicken nuggets
- veggie burgers
- strawberries
- pickles
- pizza
- spaghetti
- yogurt
- fries
- applesauce
- baked beans
- hot dogs
* he's still not talking, but he babbles a ton
* loves milk (with a little chocolate...i am slowly taking away some of the chocolate syrup at a time)
* olivia
* yo gabba gabba
* elmo
* apple juice (no more oj because i read that that might have something to do with excema)
* slamming doors
* using a fork
* books
* gymboree class
* baths (which he is doing so much better in the bath. he has always loved them but he was so crazy that me and johnny hated to give him a bath. it took both of us...johnny holding his arms and me washing him. now i can do it by myself!! finally! he understands when we say to stay on his bottom. i love watching him in the tub. he has so much fun and plays so well!
* can give kisses now. you know the "open mouth baby kisses"...i love it!
* i am down to nursing him 1 time a day. i haven't nursed him in the middle of the night in about 5 nights!
* he has slept the whole night the past 2 nights...keep it up jack!
i am sure there's much more about him that i am forgetting about. he is so sweet and such a joy to be around. i love every second of everyday with him, but my most favorite time of the day is after his nap when i give him his milk and sit on the couch snuggling with him. i love my little booger bear!
