The Jack Update
Loves his "
ucy iser" (Lucy sister") and loves to "help". He often gets the
assignment to take Lucy's soiled diapers to the "diaper trash". He told me his first joke/funny the other day. We are working on what his full name is.
Stacy: Jack what's your name?
Jack: Jack E boy
S: No your Jack Edward
J: Jack Edward
S: Good, and that's Lucy Aleen, so what's your name?
J: Jack Aleen....and Lucy Edward
Oh my silly boy you make me smile.
Jack is also a good helper and he can often be found helping to do the dishes,
clean the bathroom, making breakfast (eggs),
and "fixing" the walls (this is down by pounding with his hammers all over the house).
Jack's vocab has started growing exponentially. He is talking in full sentences and it mush more understandable...at least to those fluent in the Jack dialect of 2 year old.
Jack loves everything car, trains, or trucks. Pretty much if it has wheels he loves it and it is "MINE". We are working on sharing and how to use a quiet voice.
Jack loves his cousins and friends. Anytime we get on the freeway he asks if we are going to
Brea's house. Anytime we drive down Spur he points to Maura's house then
Rylie's house, driving down our street he points to Macy's house and then Brighton's house.
As we drive to Nana's house he asks if we are going to Jonas' house, I say no and he asks if we are going to Aaron's house. (You get to all of these houses the same way). As we drive west on our way to Grandma's house he asks if we are going to Parker's house and when we pass by he knows Grandma's house is next and gets excited to see "
Amma,
nInda,
Rara, Wad, Anna, and
Marhee.
Jack loves to JUMP! He is our jumping Jack and seriously jumps everywhere. If he's not Jumping he's running.
He loves wearing jeans and loves to pick out his own clothes....usually he does pretty good, but not always.
He still loves nap time. Although last couple days he hasn't actually napped. Instead, he gets his
sippy cup with milk goes to his room and plays/sings/"reads" for at least 2 hours. I really don't care if he actually sleeps (although he's happy if he does) as long as he gives me at least 2 hours.
Jack loves to laugh and loves to make us laugh.

to her tummy and does so regularly (and luckily doesn't cry so much anymore now when she is on her tummy). 
She can also "scoot" while on her back and ends up all over the place, never where I actually put her down. The other day I about had a heart attack when I glance down just a minute after I had put her down and she was gone! Luckily she can't go to far yet.
Lucy loves to suck on thing. Her Binky is my first choice...but she loves fingers (yours and hers), arms, shirts and blankets. She drools like a leaky faucet and constantly has a soaked shirt.
Lucy's hair is red and so far it is sticking...we will just have to wait and see if she goes blond like Erik and his siblings did.
