Out of the Mouths of Babes, Part 20

Ta-da! Jack Henry’s first real features in “Out of the Mouths of Babes!” He’s regularly putting two or more words together at a time now, though there is often a pause between then while he thinks of what he wants to say. On with the show!

Me, to Jack Henry: Why are you [...]

The One Where We Encourage Violence

Watching him Wii box is one of my favorite things.

Comparison

So, I’d planned to post today about us decorating the tree last night, but instead I’m posting this little (adorable, if I do say so myself) video of Jack Henry from last night…tree decorating post can wait.
I LOVE how he says “yes” and needed to record it, and I got it last night in this [...]

You Could Say We’re Going Through a Sticker Phase.

Bennett has twice this week already created what he calls “Sticker Man,” whereby he covers himself in as many stickers as he can. I don’t care that he does this for two reasons:
1. He stays out of trouble for a very long time while placing the stickers, and Jack Henry usually joins him (though [...]

Terrible Twos

As I’ve suspected in the past, along with two-year-molars comes two-year-old behavior. This was confirmed last week when Jack Henry’s first molar popped through and his behavior, that VERY day, turned into that of a toddler.

*Did a happy dance around the kitchen.
*Ran a ton of errands, most of them fun.
*Picked [...]

25 Random Thoughts

This is taken from a page in Hannah’s book…I enjoyed her list over the weekend, and I’m feeling like my head is full of randomness today as well, so here goes.
25. I have an unhealthy relationship with bread and butter. Knowing is half the battle, right?
24. I love how Jack Henry says “Santa” and [...]

This. Is. Huge.

This won’t be an exciting post for most of you, but this is so exciting for me that I have to write it!
These pictures have nothing to do with this post; I just think they’re funny. Jack Henry was throwing a little tantrum on Saturday morning (generally, like this time, he just lays down [...]

He’s With the Band.

Couldn’t you just eat him with a spoon?

Just enjoying a beautiful day last week…he came in covered in chalk! (He only did a few of the drawings though; his brothers were making some kind of Star Wars trap out of chalk on the back patio.)
