Jake 2 Years 1 Month

Jake Oliver my crazy, overly excited, little boy. I love you so much! You stress me to my limits but also bring out the love so much in my that I can't help but squeeze you so hard with all the love I feel for you. Jake at 2 years 1 month...

1. Jake is starting to get a little more picky with his movies. Andie seems to trump him with movies the majority of the time and Jake just deals. Lately Jake has been very opinionated about which movies he wants to watch. Jake will say yes or no with movies until we get to the perfect one! The kids have learned they must take turns now when it comes to their shows!

2. Jake is okay when Dad and Mom leave. Jake was always our little shy boy and would work himself up if Mom and Dad would leave him with someone, anyone! Jake is finally to the stage as long as whoever is going to watch him has toys and a TV good bye parents he is in heaven.

3. Jake his getting such a better vocabulary. Jake is talking more and more and you can actually start understanding some of what he says. He definitely is having his vocabulary expand in leaps and bounds, by three little man will be a talking machine.

4. Jake is growing out of all his clothes. Pants are like capris and his shirts are more like belly shirts. We had to go through his clothes but he hates trying one piece of clothing after the next unable to just keep the clothes on and go bye. We found a shirt and pants that fit him perfectly and went from there just using them as measuring so we didn't have to stress Jake out to much! 2T clothes fit him so much better then 18 month clothes in pants and he still has some shirts that fit him in 18month and some in 2T.

5. Jake celebrated Easter and loved it! Jake was a little confused why we were searching for eggs and questioned it quite a bit but he eventually just went along with it because after all he had treats inside them.

6. Jake loves pushing the grocery cart around that we have. Jake will run around like a mad man racing with the shopping cart hitting whatever or whoever gets in his way. Jake can be a little dangerous!

7. Jake is a fan of the trampoline. Jake is loving the tramp that Grandpa and Grandma got, getting off and on is a breeze when we have attached a slide to climb up and down onto it from. Even more then the tramp Jake LOVES playing Basketball. Grandpa and Grandma have a basketball hoop and Jake is so proud of himself when he can slam-dunk that basketball (we lift him up). Jake just might be our little basketball man!

8. Jake is 63% overall for his height and weight. He is growing far to quickly and I'm still trying to accept that fact that he is two years old. We suspect Jake has ADHD but with him being so young not much can be done for it (not that I would medicate him anyways). Just know when I say my boy is crazy I literally mean MY BOY IS CRAZY (I would have it no other way!)!

Jake Oliver you bring some much joy to your home. You stress us to the max but you make us laugh even more. You are such a silly little boy and willing to please your baby sister and help out the best you can. You are so caring and loving! We love you Jake my boy, always and forever!
