Jack Jack is 19 Months


Oh yeah.  That's a nickname of ours for Jack.  I also love when Eli calls him Jackie.  This post is a few days early, but since I'm in the mood and much won't change in a couple of days, I'm sharing now.  

Jack is walking everywhere really well.  He's really picked up his pace and JR said it seemed like Jack was running a little earlier this evening.  He Loves to walk around outside!  He still needs help getting up/down steps and has to watched very carefully navigating the sidewalk and patio because he is totally oblivious that he could trip or fall down with a slight misstep.  He doesn't like to hold my hand which I remember Eli doing and probably every other toddler that just gained this freedom.  


He is starting to get better at putting together his wooden puzzles.  He loves to throw stuff too.  Anything.  I've started redirecting him to throw his balls instead.


He understands a lot of what we tell him to do and has some words.  I'm looking forward to him talking more.  He's really good at pointing to things, tells us when he's done with something or what he wants.  


He hates to have his teeth brushed.  I remember on and off struggles with Eli but Jack has never enjoyed it.  He has also started disliking having his hair washed.


He falls asleep in the car sometimes which is nicer than the alternative...crying in the car.  I finally turned him facing forward.  


That's about it.  See you next month ;)
