22 months!

Another month has gone by?? Oh my... another month has gone by. People, in just TWO short months, my baby will be TWO! As in YEARS OLD!! Can someone please tell me how this has happened? And why on earth does time seem to go faster every day? :) Probably because the days get more fun and more awesome by the day.

Jake, on December 6, 2010

On this very day, one year ago, Jake went from toddling 10-15 steps to being a full time walker. On this day last year, it was like Jake just woke up and took off. After that day, he very rarely crawled again. So, today marks the day of toddlerhood for Jake. He became a full-time toddler one year ago, today. :)

Jake at 22 months...
Still weighs 28 pounds
Is 37 inches tall
Talks in full sentences and ideas
LOVES "Bickey House" and Minnie
Obsessed with Yo Gabba Gabba...still
Loves trucks (and things that go) and making the appropriate truck noises.
Favorite people to play with - Braxton, Kale, Bop, and of course.. Dada.
Remembers people's names better than I do, sometimes
LOVES to sing and dance
Can sing a large majority of the ABC's (some are jumbled, but he's getting pretty good)
Can count to 10 on his own (I will actually hear him spontaneously doing this on his own a lot of the time)
Can identify green, brown, yellow, and red
Can sing "Twinkle, Twinkle" in its entirety on his own
Loves to read books
Most requested song by Jake - "Jesus Loves Me"
Loves to play pretend, i.e.: talking on phone, building forts and pretending to knock on the door, eating, etc. It's cute.
Still sleeps like a champ. Goes to bed around 9:30 and gets up 7:45-8:30. Naps 3-4 hours in the afternoon--it is a glorious thing, that I do NOT take for granted!
You REFUSE to discuss or have anything to do with the potty.
You wear mostly size 2T in clothes, and size 6 in shoes.

Jake Pickle, you are becoming one of the coolest kids I've ever met! You are so smart, so fun, so sweet, and so loving. Your Daddy and I are so proud of the kid you are! You make us happier than we ever thought possible!


Well, guys that's it for us for today! Happy Tuesday! We are going to see (the best) Santa tonight...exciting!!
