Turning One

Jack, today you are one! You fill our days with adventure and excitement. You are are always moving and climbing and playing. You love being outside. You love playing in the water. You love your big brother, Lincoln. You are a handful and love being heard from across the room. We love you! Happy Birthday!

Eleven Months and Growing

Cannot believe this little guy is 11 months and boy is he a HAND FULL! He is always ready for adventure and has a hard time having to sit still. He loves exploring wherever he is. He gets a little frustrated when he sees his big brother doing things he can't quite do yet. He's very ready to start walking but I don't think he's close to taking his first steps. He has such a funny personality and loves making people laugh. When we laugh around him he fakes laugh along with us and it's hilarious. It's all I can do to keep up with this little guy but I love every minute of.

Ten Months and Growing

Sleep: Down at 6:30 p.m. and sleeps until 7:30-8:00 a.m. He takes two naps usually around 2-3 hours long. No more night time feedings or early  morning feedings.

Eat: Jack is transitioning very well to table food. He usually eats what we're having for dinner but cut up into tiny bites. One of his favorites is spaghetti. He still will eat baby food but it's not really his favorite. He normally eats what we're having while I try to sneak in some baby food here or there.

Firsts: Exchange back-and-forth gestures, get into sitting position from stomach, cruise, understand "no", stand alone (just for a few seconds).

Likes: balls (he will hunt down a ball to play with anywhere he is), walking with his toy walker, eating big boy food, finger puppets, instruments and music, reading books, playing with his big brother, going down the slide, swinging, being outside.
