toodee

last night jack and i were in his room. he was on his chair and i was hanging up clothes. he had his favorite book, "the very hungry caterpillar". he started flipping the pages and read to himself. it was the cutest thing in the world! he didn't say the actual words, but i know he was reading that book and pointing to the pictures. it was a very proud moment!!

also i was showing johnny jack's new tricks...i said "point to your nose" and he did! i said "point to your ears...eyes...mouth" and he did all of those! my child is a genius!! haha! but seriously i was impressed that my teaching worked :)

jack also said "toodee" last night. toodee is a character on yo gabba gabba. he was playing with her last night and i said "what is her name? her name is toodee. say toodee. say toodee...over and over." he walked into the kitchen and next thing we know we heard "toodee" we couldn't believe it. he wouldn't say it again.

jack has been going to sleep on his own since friday night!! yay for jack! i should have done this a long time ago. it took me months to get the courage to try letting him "cry it out" after the last time because he cried so hard. but this time it is like he was fine with it. he cried for a few seconds and then was asleep (or quiet). i am so proud of him (and me!).
next mission is to get him to sleep through the night!
