Getting So Big!

Jeff is getting so big! Everyday he changes. Last week I started writing down different things that I noticed he has started to do. It's amazing at how quickly things add up! I wanted to write them down so I don't forget, but also so I know at what age he did different things.

~Sitting at the bar stool to eat your snacks/lunch - grandma puts you up there and you LOVE to sit like a big boy. You get this grin on your face and I know you think that your pretty hot stuff!
~Laying on mom and dad's bed to watch Elmo - you actually will lay pretty still for 20 minutes and watch Elmo's Wild Animals...you love this video. If we would let you I think you'd watch it all day long!
~Know how to get off of the bed! - Daddy taught you how to climb off the bed, which is really nice that you are able to get down when you want.
~Fold your hands to Pray - when we sit down for dinner you fold your hands together and remind all us of that we need to pray. But then you want to hold our hands instead of folding yours. It's the sweetest thing really. Grandma took you to church to sit the other day and you were so good for you. You were quiet in the pew for a few minutes, you said a prayer, and you dipped your hands in the holy water.
~Getting more attached to your blankie's - these blue blankets of yours go everywhere with us. The only time you don't have them by you is when we are outside or when you are sitting in your high chair. Otherwise it's fair game and you probably are dragging them around.
~Jabbering up a storm - even though you really aren't talking to much yet, you are trying so hard. You are consistantly pointing to things and trying to get words out.
~You tell us which way to go when we are driving! - Yes that's right, you actually point out the window and tell us which way you want to go and if we don't go that way you get upset!
~You know where certain places are - Jeff you have an amazing memory! You know what places we eat at, where we play, where mommy gets her daily fountain pop...it's amazes me really. Daddy things we eat out all the time when he's not around since you know all of this stuff!
~Peddle your cars - 2 weeks ago you would not of even tried, but now you get in your cars and you peddle away.
~Use a big boy cup to drink your milk - Mommy got you a new cup the other day and ever since you've been drinking your milk out of it. I'm so happy because it's been hard to get you to drink your milk. The only problem is you like to stick you utensils in it and swish it around!
