Not Funny Jay!

One thing about living far away is that our family and friends haven’t seen Jay grow up in this first year, so I like to blog about his developments so everyone can get an idea of where he is at.

Jay loves to explore all over the house. Listening is not his strong point so once he sees something he wants to touch or hold he gets VERY determined! He makes all sorts of noises and seems to have conversations with everything (toys, us, Cassie, his food) He is also getting in his second molar. He is still a good sleeper, 2 two hour naps a day plus 12 hours or so at night. He likes to eat food and drink milk and water (especially in the bath, yuck!). We are working on getting him to not hit. He thinks it is funny when someone is holding him to smack them in the face. “No Jay, that is not funny, gentle.” But he is so cute with his smile and giggle. We love him so much!

 

Side x Side Cassie in the Sand

Jay sure is enjoying spring over here. Digging in the sandbox, playing with the shovels and trucks, eating the rocks he finds, he’s into it all! But it sure is a pleasure to watch him run after his sister, climb the stairs for the slide when she does, sometimes even get on the swing with her. He’s got a great older sister to look up to his whole life long!

His Smile Wins My Heart

Jay loves to get into everything. He opens every drawer and pulls everything out. It drives me crazy, clean freak that I am, and it drives his curiosity, child that he is. Just when I think I am going to get upset at putting the Tupperware away for the 15th time that day, he looks over and smiles at me with a big toothy grin. Awwwwย…. Big hugs and kisses for Jay! By the way, he is signing nowย…more, food and drink. Hopefully we can add a few more signs to the repertoire and get our little guy communicating!
