Jefferson 18 months

Just got his canines.
He was obsessed with this book about stars. Totally age inappropriate, but I'd read him some of it and sing twinkle twinkle little star and he wanted to read it over and over and over again. Other favorite books include:








Words: Momma, Daddy, Aria, Hot, Whoa, cheese and shoes ( which sound surprisingly similar) more, milk, crackers, cookies, doggy, teeth, amen, Jesus ( which actually sounds a lot like cheese and shoes) What's that?, Here you go., Yay!, uh-oh, No, Yes, Yep (Sounds more like Des, Dap) two, three, boo, peek-a-boo, please, thank-you

Sounds: Fishy smacks, Cow Moos, Dog ruffs, Frog ribbits, Duck quacks, Cat meows.

He loves to go places. He's constantly trying to get me to put his shoes on. If I go out to the garage just to get something, he gets mad that we weren't going anywhere.  He just started nursery. Walked in kind of dazed and didn't cry a peep. I think it probably helped that Daddy took him.

Loves to play the piano.

Loves to pretend to eat food. or make me pretend to eat food.

Loves the little doggies to play with and he LOVES balls and animals.

Just started showing an interest in coloring.

For cereal in the morning. I have to show him nearly every cereal from the cupboard before he finally nods his head yes.

Just got a haircut. He looks darling both ways. But he definitely looks more like my brothers with it shorter. This is before, the after is above... :)

Wants to go to school with Aria.

His pincer grasp has gotten really good lately. He really likes putting small things in small holes. He doesn't really run yet, but I think he's just not in a hurry to go anywhere.

He loves to play hide-and-seek with us. He puts his hands on his temples and proceeds to count two-three-two-three... and then LOVES helping who's it to find everybody. He always says boo!

Love this little guy!

He is SO big! You've got a cute boy Aubs:)
I love that you write down all the little things they enjoy. I really need to start doing that instead of waiting till I do their baby book because then I forgot. I hope all is well in Texas. I was thinking of your today and wishing you were here to give me advice for year 2 :)

"I've never been so alone, alone, and I've, and I've never been so alive. So alive." - Motorcycle Drive-by - Third Eye Blind //How we feel. All the time. Glad we could share a little piece of our hearts today with the senior center. They all knew "You Are My Sunshine" which made my heart Happy.  #music   #thismanandhisguitar #wooshearts   #lovehim   #evieproject #evielaree  one of the residents told us to look up a video on YouTube about Amazing Grace. He thought we would like it.  #forreal   #howcouldheknow #n8lovesthirdeyeblind   #ilovehimforit   Also my friend intends to "adopt a grandma here". What a great idea. I can't wait to find out how it goes.  #opa Jeff thinks it's fun to get up with the sun. Apparently it's starting to wear on him because this is what I woke up to this morning.  #goodmorning   #goodmorning   #asleepagainalready   #itsgreattostayoutlate We signed up to help at the Houston food Ban...

band wagon

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.
