Big Steps

So, I let Jack drink out of a "big boy" cup the other day and I was surprised at how well he did. We don't do this very often so I didn't expect too much. I let him do it all by himself and he was very proud of himself until it became fun to play in the water. Soon, the water was everywhere. On the tray, on Jack, dripping on the floor. It was awesome. He was having so much fun!

It's beginning to get difficult to understand what Jack is saying. He talks all the time and repeats everything so there is just no telling what's going on in his head. A few days ago he was riding his tractor and he said, "Bye bye, mommy." I said, "Bye bye, Jack." And he proceeded to drive around the table. Well, on Friday he once again hopped on his tractor and said, "Bye bye, mommy. Au ju." Not paying much attention (because he talks ALL THE TIME), I didn't respond and he said, "au ju. au ju. au ju." Finally, I looked down at him and realized what he was saying and I said, "Aww Jack, I love you too!"
