My boy turned 18 months on Sunday! Woo Hoo for milestones! Here are a few highlights from Jacob:
1) Nursery!! Boy is Momma happy about this one. I forgot what real church was like.
2) New words! Jacob is learning so many new words! He tells me to read to him all the time now and it's so cute! His favorite word is still DUCK and all birds are ducks, but that's okay.
3) Potty training: I haven't been as diligent on this as I should because the day care won't do anything with him until he is 2, but I still have the weekends to practice.
4) Jacob has FINALLY started giving hugs and kisses on demand! I LOVE IT! I take advantage of it as much as possible.
We've had a rough few weeks around here. Jacob has had a bad flu bug which he has lovingly spread to his daddy. I haven't caught it thus far and still have my fingers crossed on that one. I have gotten some awesome snuggles in from my little toddler. He is going through a book phase right now. He's not so interested in most of his toys, but he will rip every single book off the shelf, chuck it at me and say "REE!" Granted, he is less interested in the reading and more interested in the page turning, but that doesn't bother me. Notice this book is upside down in the picture...Just watch your step because my house has become a land mine.
Jakey doesn't need to be entertained much. He loves watching TV or just playing by himself. We love to stack and knock down blocks and play catch. He loves to climb on everything. Oddly, he only just barely figured out how to climb up on the couch. Maybe our couches are too high, I have no idea. But this is a new fave. Climb on the couch and make all of Mom's pictures crooked so she freaks out. OCD a little? Ah, and light switches. He can only reach 1 in the house and so far hasn't figured out how to flip it UP, just down. Goof.
Jacob loves food. Everything! His favorites are cheese, pasta, beans, bath bubbles, dandelions, and dirt. What can I say? He's all boy! All in all, Jacob is the sweetest little boy! He loves his Mama and Daddy! He loves his Uncle Matt! Uncle Matt is the one who taught him how to lick his plate by the way... We love having this little boy in our life! There I go, getting all mushy.
