Daily activities

Eating. I eat my fair share of PBJ sandwiches and macaroni and cheese, but my real loves right now are members of the condiment family: sour cream, catchup, cream cheese, butter, etc. Here I am cleaning up after a bagel "accidentally" got its cream cheese all over my plate.



Potty training. This might be a bit much for some, but I'm really proud of my potty skills. I've only had one or two #2 diapers in the last few weeks. Mom and Dad are bummed. "I did it!"

Californian guests: The Pelfanios

Our friends from California came to visit. L to R: Sara, Addie, Joey, and me.

Addie is almost 3 so I had a great time hanging out with an older woman.

We took these three photos. Nice.

We're back!

What a long couple of weeks it's been. I was sick with the flu two weeks ago (pictured).

Then Dad had the same thing this last week. Couple that with a lack of a cord to get pictures off of our camera and you've got a serious blog hiatus. Hopefully we're back on track now.

Where is Jack?

Good question. I've been sick this week with a mild flu. Nothing too exciting, but enough to keep me and Mommy and/or Daddy home. And Grandma Connie and Grandpa Mark came to play on Friday so Mom and Dad could go to work. I'm feeling fine now and my fever is almost gone.
Also, we lost our camera-to-computer cord so it's slim pickin's for photos right now. Here's Dad and I "working" on the computer.

And in other news...here's my new bro/sis! 13 weeks old!

Birthday pics

You may not believe it, but I got a few presents for my birthday. We celebrated on Saturday and had Auntie Katherine over for dinner, presents and dessert.
The madness:



My awesome new airplane:

Making flying noises with my new airplane (check out my lips):

With Autie Katherine:

Happy birthday to me! This is the first session of candles; I demanded to blow them out a few more times tonight. Fire is so alluring... Dad was pretty excited that I didn't care for the chocolate cake - more for him!


On my actual birthday (Thurs Jan 7), my friend Big Jack came all the way from Sacramento to visit me! It was really fun to wrestle and hang out with another Jack. Miss you buddy!

School

Many of you are probably wondering what happens during the day at school. Here are a few pictures my teacher Kiki took recently on her phone.
The toddler class: Cash, Henry, me, Jenny and Luna.

The boys (up to something probably)

One day I apparently fell asleep at lunch.

Decorating gingerbread cookies that mom brought to school in December. I opted for the dump it all on technique.

This is dance class. We dance and sing songs - I really like it. Check out my moves next time you see me.

I love to cook and one day at school we made muffins. Here I am stirring.

On my birthday we brought in cupcakes. I even got to blow out a candle!

Birthday boy!

ABCs and 123s

I need some prompting to get going, but I've pretty much got these down now that I'm two.

123:

ABC:

Happy Birthday to me!

I am two!! What a year it has been.

Here's a quick glimpse back on my previous birthdays:

New year, new hair

I'm just coming down from the Christmas high, and now it's almost my birthday! I thought it was time to clean up my curly locks a bit for the new year, so here I am, baby.
