A Toddler Joke

Momma: Dada, Jack can get to the choc-o-lick (Jack's word for Chocolate).
Dada: Do we need to move the choc-o-lick?
Jack: I already move the choc-o-lick.
Momma: Where did you move it, Jack?
Jack: I move the choc-o-lick into my mouth.

New Experiences

It's been a big month Jack!

You went on your first protest march in Austin (which you didn't like at first).

(see more pictures here)

You sat around your first campfire and had up close and personal conversations with cows!

(see more pictures here)

Awesome!

We've created a monster.. er. ahem.. toddler. We've created a toddler!

Is it bad that my favorite part of this video happens just after he runs around the couch? And the "You stop it!" bit.. Where does he get that? I am proud to say that he only reserves hitting for technology (when Momma's not looking) and not people. Note that even when he strikes the computer, he looks to see if I've noticed.. (sigh).

Dear Jack B'Hat,

I missed your monthly post day due to work, but it is only a day late. Maybe it will give you some consolation to know that I received this message in my email today:

We're totally ready for Christmas! The house is decorated to the point that your Aunt Gagi would be proud! The tree is gorgeous; the mantel looks like a wintry wonderland; there are little pockets of Christmas cheer all over the house, including a fiber optic snowman in your room and tiny spruce bouquets in all of the bathrooms. We even bought Christmas cacti from the AHS FFA and they are in bloom! Jack, you inspired and helped with all of it!! We even made Christmas cookies and hot cocoa on the day we hung the lights outside!!

Needless to say, your Dada and I are so looking forward to Christmas this year, especially now that you are more aware of the holiday. You remind us of the magic and wonder Christmas brings. :) Happy 30th month, baby!!

I'm proud to be your Momma!

Love,

Momma

29 Months

Dear Jack B'Hat,

Hi! This has been a very eventful month with all the Halloween goings on and such. In fact, I'm exhauseted and so are you most days. We both give everyday our all and by the time our heads hit our pillows, we're out. I'm going to keep this letter short and sweet.

Here are some things that have happened this month:

*You went trick or treating for the very first time!! It was awesome! You were a blue "color" and Momma wore her striped hose and a witches hat. We held hands and walked around the neighborhood. We looked for "porch lights on?" and you were in charge of ringing the doorbells. Sometimes you weren't very enthusiastic in your doorbell ringing, but as soon as the door was opened, people melted at the sight of you! "How cute!!!" they would exclaim. You would whisper, "twickotweet?" and folks dropped candy in your pumpkin bucket. Then you would say, "I'm goin' to the park!" I don't know why you felt the need to tell people that. Still, it was pretty cute.

* You are especially eager to play in the dirt lately. When I say "play in the dirt" I mean that you dig in a flower pot and shovel the soil into your dump truck. You're such a boy.

* This is probably too much information, but everytime you toot, you mention that you've done it, and then Dada reminds you to say "e-choos me."

(Dada's input here)

I love you, Baby Boy! I'm proud to be your Momma!!!

Love,

Momma
