Update
Sorry everyone. We have been pretty bad about updating the blog lately, but we have been busy! We are trying to move and just opened escrow on a house in Visalia, CA. We are really excited because this one has air conditioning and a pool!!! Our current home has neither and the California summers have been rough. The pool is even already fenced, so we won't have to worry about Jack.
Jack is doing really well and is very close to walking on his own. A week ago he took his first steps and both Amy and I were lucky enough to see it. I feel like one step might be questionable, but he took two before he crashed and burned so this was legit!
His first tooth, the upper right, FINALLY popped through about two weeks ago and was immediately followed by the other one on top and both on the bottom. Despite the fact that he's got four coming in all at the same time, he has been quite happy and it doesn't seem to bother him much at all. What's bothering us, though, is that he's starting to grind them together and it makes a horrible sound like nails on a chalkboard. Ugh!
Jack's also pretty close to finally telling us what's on his mind. He's getting very good at mimicking sounds and can do "dog", "cat" and "dad" pretty well. (Momma only comes out when he falls down and needs a hug.) I am home with him today and we are working on shaking our head "yes" for a change. He figured out how to shake "no" a long time ago and that's already starting to get old...
So that's all the big news for this update. Walking, talking and teeth all within a few weeks is pretty good work for our little man! His first birthday is in two-and-a-half weeks, so there should be some great pictures coming soon. We're not sure what we will be doing for a party, though, because we will quite likely close escrow and be trying to move on his big day. We'll make it work, though! That's just too important to postpone! We'll also try to get some updated pictures on here soon. His fangs are almost long enough to show up on film!
