BOOM!

Boom! This is Jack's new favorite game and word. The game involves throwing oneself on a soft surface (a bed or a couch)... over and over again. Possibly forever if we let him. Every time we head upstairs he says "boom, boom!" and heads for the daybed we have in the guest bedroom. Or if he takes a tumble while walking, he says "boom!" Or if he drops something, he says "boom!" So we're thinking this is also his word for anything or anyone that falls. But who really knows the intricate mind of a toddler...

Swinging and walking and generally on fire.

This guy has been on fire the last few weeks! He's walking fairly well now. Singing and saying his proper bye and hi. Chasing cats. Exhibiting a healthy amount of disobedience. And very awake! As in, not sleeping. We're tired over here but thrilled with our guys budding and increasingly explosive personality.
