Chatter from Jacob

(From my journal to Jacob)

You are repeating everything now. It's so fun. You know lowercase "b" and possibly "a." You stopped sleeping well a couple of weeks ago when I started a temp job. I've been home for a week and a half and you still don't sleep as well as you used to. You love to say "lawnmower." You say "Boppa" and "Momma" for Grandma and Grandpa. You love to "wock" in the rocking chair. you love giving hugs and kisses. You kiss Pumpkin. You wave to Boehmke and she "waves" back.

Let's Do the Hokey Pokey!

(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. :)
