1.5 years old!

Jackson Kelly turned 1.5 years or 18 months old on July 30th. He has changed so much in the past month. Everyday he does something or says something new that amazes us or just makes us laugh. He will repeat any word or phrase you say and is using sentences more and more.
Here are some of his vocab words:
Na-Nauh (banana)
Pees (please)
Pane (plane)
Orsie (horsie)
Ookie (coookie)
Iger (tiger)
Broter (brother)
Buffer-fy (butterfly)
Buffafo (buffalo)
Chew-dryer (screwdriver)
Mato (tomato)
MINE (mine)
Tractore (tractor)

He LOVES trains, water, balls and animals. He is a GREAT sleeper. When we are home he will take a 3 hr. afternoon nap, goes to bed around 8p and wakes up around 7a. We are preparing for Grant to be the opposite if this. Jackson's favorite foods are bananas, tomatos, cookies, french fries, beans (green beans), cheese, oranges and waffles. He will pretty much try anything though. The kid loves to eat. Jackson also loves books. We read throughout the day and at night we read before he goes to bed. Jackson and Marshall still spend bathtime together every night. He HATES water getting in his eyes but loves bathtime. Jack just started dancing and jumping all the time. By jumping I mean he bends down and then raises his arms really high. His sweet little feet never leave the ground. His dancing involves kind of a gallop in a circle. He loves to watch me cook and always says "I see Mommy, I see" meaning he wants to see what I am cooking. He is very persistent and will repeat things over and over and over until he gets what he wants. He is still very attached to blankie. He can name his eyes, nose, ears, hair, arm, belly, leg, hands, toes and fingers.

It is truly a blessing and so fun to watch this little man grow up. I know this was a lot of info, but it is fun for me to look back over the blog and see when he reached certain milestones.

Love,

Leah
