(From my journal to Jacob)
You know "Moo!" and "Nay!" for cow and horse. Your favorite words right now -- moo, nay, dog, fish, shoe, miney, trash, wipes, bottle, Boehmke (bah-kee), bye, hello (ee-yo), vacuum (vah-coo). Oh, and you like, "Goose." You know so many words now! You put two words together sometimes. You love balls and your t-ball set. You know that you can only hit balls. You like to pretend to play Playstation with your dad. You're afraid of the vacuum. You are great at puzzles. You love to show us all of your teeth. You play peek-a-boo and wait forever before revealing your face. You like the hokey pokey. You give the sweetest little kisses.
You had your first Easter Egg hunt last Saturday. You loved it, but didn't want to stop. Last night we had tornadoes and hail. The noise of the hail scared you.

Miney
(From my journal to Jacob)
A couple of nights ago, you weren't feeling well and couldn't sleep. We brought you into bed with us. You were almost asleep and you rolled over to me, patted my face, and sleepily said, "Miney. Miney." It was so sweet! It just makes me smile whenever you say, "Miney" or when I think of it. :) I love you!

Bubble?
(From my journal to Jacob)It snowed last week and you started saying, "Bubble?" We kept saying snow, so you say, "nooooo." You still occasionally ask, "Bubble?" It was raining today, and you said, "Nooooo." Last week you started calling me "Miney." It's so funny! You've been hitting, so you've gotten several time outs. You say, "Whoa!" when the car turns sharply. You like to sit in your cardboard house, lean back until it falls, and yell, "Whoa!" It is hilarious.
Tonight I kissed your dad and you wlaked over and kissed him, too. :)

Miss Kim and Miss Maggie
(From my journal to Jacob)
You started saying "Bankie" for "blankie." It's so cute! You say "Doh" when you hear a dog. You went to Miss Kim and Miss Maggie's today and loved it.
You give hugs and pacifier kisses. You like it when I kiss Wally goodnight. :)

Talking and Playing
(From my journal to Jacob)
I can't believe I've gone so long without writing! Okay, a quick recap -- anything yucky or sticky or pieces of small trash are "djucky." The diapers and wipes have to go back in their place as soon as the diaper change is done. The remote has to be on the entertainment center. The lights and TV should be on. When you do give kisses (not often) they're open-mouthed and very wet. You hug the cats every chance you get. You love to give them cat treats. You like to climb into the play yard. On February 1st, you started jumping and doing somersaults (with help on the somersaults). You love to say "ball" and you draw out the "l" sound. Also, "bowl." Other words: shoe, trash, socks, wash, bah (bath), car, dog, cat, meow. The other day I was closing the dishwasher and told you to watch your fingers. It was so funny because you held your hand in front of your face and looked at your fingers. :)
You love to be outside. You love kicking, throwing, and hitting balls. We got you a fat plastic bat. You talk and talk in your crib. If you get discouraged, you just mess everything up. A couple of weeks ago you were throwing tantrums a lot, but that only lasted a week.
You give hugs a lot when you wake up now. It's so sweet. You like to listen but shake your head no if we ask you to talk on the phone. You can spot a balloon 5 miles away.
You love playing with big kids and just jump right in.

Blowing Bubbles
(From my journal to Jacob)
You got a big rubber ball today and you love it! You think it's a balloon, though.
Your Uncle Ben came for dinner tonight and he had bubble gum. When he'd blow a bubble, you'd stare and then stick your lower lip out and up. It's so funny! You had a great time with him.
You love to drop things and say, "Uh oh." You also say it when you think anything bad happens.
You love to run outside. You start laughing as soon as we put you down.
You love pointing to parts of the face so we say them over and over again.

Christmas in St. Louis
(From my journal to Jacob)
We had a great Christmas in St. Louis. You loved all of the attention. You got a wagon, which you love. For a few days, whenever we'd ask where your foot was, you'd say, "Gike" and hold up your foot. So cute!
You have 12 teeth now. You're so tall and thin. Everyone thinks you're 2 to 2 1/2. Your face looks old! You just don't have chubby baby cheeks.
You are so wonderful. You smile for everyone. There's so much to write. I feel like I can't cover enough.
You still love to touch skin. You reach up my sleeves to squeeze my arm. If anyone has skin showing, like above a waistline or a hole in the pants, you love to poke it with your finger. :)
