Uff! Uff!

Jack informed us "dog, uff uff". What a smart boy! He now goes around the house making barking noises, "uff uff uff". We rented 101 Dalmations and he absolutely loved it. Through out the whole movie he barked. Then he started saying "pup pup" when he would see all the puppies. It was so cute.

Shades

We spend a lot of time outside, so I thought I would try and get Jack use to wearing his sunglasses. It's a miracle he kept them on long enough to get this picture. He would much rather play with them then wear them.

Dog-gone it!

Well it's only natural that Jack has had a fascination with dogs. With two inside dogs and two more that sleep outside, he's been surrounded by dogs since he was born. Heck, Herbert(pug) even eats dinner with us. Today Jack spoke his first real word, besides Mama and Dada, and of course it had to be dog. All day long when he would see a dog he would start up "Dog, Dog, Dog". Of course his pronunciation leaves a little room for interpretation, but I am sure he is saying dog. When I would mimic him and say dog back he would get excited, like "yeah, you finally understand me".

Awesome Elmo Blanky

Since Jack is obsessed with Elmo I come up with crazy Elmo ideas to make. I came up with the idea of a blanket shaped like a giant Elmo head then convinced my mom to make it. It turned out so cute. It is totally the cutest Elmo blanky ever. The first time Jack saw it he had an absolute fit. He loves his new Elmo blanky.

Bucket Head

Jack thought this bucket made a great hat. Maybe he'll start a new fashion trend.

If Your Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands

Yeah! Jack learned to clap his hands yesterday. He has learned to do a ton of other things, but had just neglected to learn hand clapping. He could give five, walk backwards, and do a lot of other stuff that I find way impressive. I was beginning to think that his hands were each embedded with magnets of opposite attraction that forcibly kept his hands from coming together. Luckily I was wrong and he can clap his hands. Yeah!

Fishy Face

Yesterday Jack learned another new talent, fishy face. I put him in his highchair for dinner and he started making silly faces. The silly faces turned into fishy faces. Once I figured out what he was doing I started making fishy faces to and he would mimic them back at me. Jack thinks it's a super fun game.

X-Box

This picture is of Shaun and Jack playing video games. You can tell by Jack's face he is already addicted. I'm just glad Shaun only gets the urge to play X-Box about once every two months or so.

Palmetto State Park

We made a day trip over to Palmetto State Park to go hiking. Me and Shaun took turns carrying Jack in the back pack, he loved being up high and being able to see everything around him. We walked down to the river and of course we had to make a pit stop at the swings. It is a really nice park and Jack really liked checking out all the scenery around him.

Sarah's Wedding

My cousin Sarah got married this weekend and my mother made the cake, so I wanted to show off how beautiful it turned out. We left Jack with my aunt because we didn't know if he would sit through the wedding service, he had a great time over there. Since I didn't have Jack to take a million pictures of, I tortured Jamie and Cassie. They were really great sports and I got a few really cute pictures. They look so sweet together.

Keep on Rolling

Jack got this toy for Christmas, but in the last couple weeks it has become one of his favorites. When he's not rolling it around all over the house he is carrying it around all over the house. He also likes to climb into his chair with it so he can roll it with his hand and make music. He's so silly.

Sucker

A couple of days ago Jack ate his first sucker all by himself, supervised of course. It was banana flavored, so by the time he was done he was covered in sticky drool that smelled like bananas. Yum.
