Words are pouring out....

Just a couple of cute things to note....
New words have been falling out of Jack's mouth right and left. Each day brings new ones that I'm thinking, "Whoa - here we go..." Yesterday I was with him at the library and he sees Thomas the Train. He starts saying, "Tomah, Tomah, Tomah, Tomah". I start chuckling as I'm thinking, "Son, you don't realize you're saying your dad's name!" Course, he's thinking trains.

Today, he was pointing to trucks in his book saying "Kut, kut" I guess that means truck to him, since every time we saw a truck, "kut" came out. He's been saying "car" for awhile now. Oh yea, and we were smart to teach him "toot" when someone, well, you know. So don't try to sneak one by him.....he'll catch you - he's proven that one.

Then, his grandpa T. taught him 'knucks'. Grandpa T. does this with my nephew, Oscar. Basically hitting fists against each others. We tell Jack to give us knucks and while doing it, he says, "Grandpa!" It's really cute. I can't wait for Grandpa H. to teach him something one day that he'll repeat over and over. And, every time the phone rings, "Grandma?" comes out.

So, the era of Jack talking has officially started. Wait until the day when I try to get him to be quiet. :)

Mr. Fix-it




Our table legs were starting to loosen, so Jack learned a few things from his daddy.
We've had 'off' schedules these last few wks. There's some rearranging going on in our IT group at work. So that's proved to be a little more busy for me. Then this last week, the weather warmed up, which made the roads completely icy. Because of this, Tom got 3 ice-days off of work. So I went in for my part-time hours during the day. And Tom and Jack had to figure out what activities they could do indoors. And, Jack's finally getting over the crud he's had, along with a new tooth coming in.
We've been lame in the blogging area, but not sure that we've done too many exciting things either.
