Baby Makes Three: Look what I can do!

People always ask me what Jace is up to these days, and I can never think of things he does on the spot so here's a list. I'm trying to use the blog as a baby book since I haven't been writing in the two I have. And that reminds me that I never completed my wedding memories books either. I'm going to give myself a 5 year time line for that task

Things Jace can do:

*Feed himself little things like puffs, crackers, bananas. He thinks he is too old for puree's now so I'm going to try a little more table food everyday. The problem is that he likes to shove his mouth with as much food as possible and I always end up having to stick my fingers in his mouth to save him. It scared the poo out of me the first time but we've both gotten used to it. I guess that's not really something to be proud of!

*He can stand up holding on to things like his music table or the couch...or the coffee table or anything else he can get his hands on

*He can open drawers and cabinets. I sat him down on the kitchen floor today to see what kind of havoc he could wreak. We will be doing some baby proofing this weekend, eek!

*He cries when he falls but only when mommy is watching. Its kind of funny because he'll be on the ground and he looks around for a while before he starts to cry. If he can't see me he'll go along with his playing

*He likes to look at his blog and pictures of himself, and his reflection in the mirror. Yup, he's vain...but he is quite the handsome little man.

*He is really aware of his surroundings. He's not a fan of strangers unless they are a safe distance away from him.

*He loves the balloons at the grocery store.

*He is a swimming fool. He likes to put his face in the water which just blows my mind.

*He loves his bad doggie. He's still learning to pet her rather than grabbing handfuls of fur and yanking. He likes to rub his feet in her fur and watch her run around the backyard. Of course Chula loves Jace because he drops about 50% of the food he picks up.

*He crawls!

*He throws little temper tantrums, ugh!

*He pulls hair...really hard

*He rarely takes a nap without having to be wrestled into submission

*He laughs and does alot of talking. So far all I can make out is Mama but he's got a huge vocabulary of made up words

*He spits, ugh again. He spits his food, he spits slobber, I think he jsut likes the sound but its a little embarrasing when we go places and

*He loves to be swung around the room by his daddy. It scares me but they both love it so I just try to look away instead of ruining the fun!

Jace's morning:

Hey Darth!
