"There you are!"
Jake's 18mo antics....
- When we brought Jake to Dr. A's on Friday for his 18mo check up, she asked us if Jake can say words now. I told her he mainly says simple words like moon, shoes, door, house, Mama, Papa, etc... and just babbles a lot as if he's holding a conversation with us. I was looking at Dr. A as I was talking when all of a sudden, my little boy said "There you are!". It was as if he was telling me, "Mama don't forget to tell Dr. A that I can also say 'there you are!' ". It was the cutest thing ever. Jake likes playing hide and seek. He likes to hide behind our wingback chair and waits patiently for Mama or Daddy to ask "where's Jake?" and then you'll see little fingers and toes inching out until he pops out behind the chair. If you're the one pretending to hide and he finds you, that's when he says "there you are!" My little monster :)...too cute!
- Jake doesn't like it when my hair is on my face. When we're on the bed and my hair is not up or in ponytail, he makes it a point to clear my face of any hair. It's too funny.
- Jake puts himself to sleep by putting his hand inside your shirt! I know...weird! He sucks his thumb (which I think is cute but Mom thinks Jake does because he's sad...hehe!) and cuddles next to you when he's sleepy. But lately, he grabs for my sleeve and puts his hand inside. It was so odd. No matter how I try to get his hand out, he keeps it in there. I figured, if this will help him sleep, fine! He does this with the Big Guy too. One night he put Jake down for the night and I was in the living room when all of a sudden, he emerges from the bedroom sans his shirt. I asked him why he was shirtless. He said Jake had his whole arm inside the Big Guy's shirt and the only way he can get off the bed was by taking off his shirt and leaving it with Jake. It was the funniest thing.
- Jake loves airplanes. He can differentiate between big planes and small planes. He absolutely loves it when we sit outside Papa & Grammy D's house because we can see the planes taking off of SJC. The Big Guy said Jake just might want to be a pilot :).
- He said 'cake' for the first time on Saturday, when we were talking about my brother's birthday cake. I notice that he loves words with the 'k' sound. He can say truck, cake, book (this is the new one!).
