Jackson @ 2 Years Old
  • Favorite Food: brown rice, chicken noodle soup... pretty much just the noodles, chedder cheese, waffles, french toast, toast with butter and honey OR garlic toast, pretty much any bread, corn, fruit (especially grapes), pasta with butter and salt (no sauce), potatoes in any form, popcorn (your favorite is kettle corn), pretty much any snack type food, and ANY sweet. You are still a very picky eater and don't eat very much when you do eat.
  • You pronounce candy, "kia" ... like the car.
  • Your most used phrase during the day is, "Up please!" (request for us to hold you)
  • Your current favorite DVD is "Ratatouille." You always point and say, "cook". You also still like watching Barney, Sesame Street and Baby Einstein.

  • You are such a little character and have us laughing throughout the day.
  • You love books and going to the library. You particularly love going to storytime and jumping onto the beanbags.
  • At bed/naptime you have to have Mr. Bear, Elmo, and your books in bed with you. Every night we help you get under the covers (Elmo too) and you give us kisses and we say goodnight (after both mommy and daddy sing to you).
  • When we come to get you in the morning, you always get a huge smile on your face. Recently you like to take Elmo, Mr. Bear, and your books out too.
  • You love getting into mommy's purse... especially for chapstick, mints, and if you had it your way gum!
  • You now let us know when you have a poopy diaper... you point to your diaper and say, "poopy, I change it"
  • You love when all 3 of us lay down in bed and get under the covers. You'll pull up the covers to your chin and say, "night, night!"
  • You love helping me with chores... laundry (separating colors and pouring the detergent in), sweeping, dusting and cooking/baking.
  • You love running around the island screaming and laughing... especially with daddy's chasing you. You scream "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
  • You love making loud, silly noises and laugh in delight when we copy you.
  • You copy EVERYTHING we say.
  • You love looking at pictures of pple you know and things you've done.
  • You pick up on things really quickly and are a smartie pants. We pretty much think you are a genius:).
  • You love going to Grandma and Grandpa's house.
  • You enjoy going to the mall and observing all the commotion and people (especially during the holidays and also when you get to play at dino land)
  • You love all balls and know which sport they belong to.
  • You love Buzz lightyear (even though you've never seen Toy Story), but there is one in nursery class you love. Before you got one for your b-day you would say, "Buzz... church" just to let us know you know that Buzz is at church. You would say this at the most random times during the day.
  • You love bubbles.
  • You love flashlights.
  • You love turning anything/everything on and off.
  • You love this little flying saucer thing that Grandma and Grandpa Bevans gave you last Christmas... and particularly love charging it;P
