JNB: 18 Months

Jess- You are such a doll! I absolutely love this age. You are learning things so fast and for the most part you are still so sweet, with a little bit of spice every now and then.



You are reaching new heights everyday. With all the fall activities you have enjoyed the different parks and have gotten good at climbing stairs and slides all by yourself. You really like to dangle off of high edges to make my heart skip a beat and I tell you "it's too scary" then you laugh. You love slides and swings. You love to play catch and even tell us to "pass" to you.





You are always trying to steal our glasses or sunglasses!


You love to put your hands in your pockets. Sometimes you push your hands so far into your pockets that you push down your pants!
You love the movie "The Lorax". You chant "Dorax, Dorax". If you are sad we can instantly cheer you up or pull you out of your slump buy suggesting "The Dorax".
You like to read books and usually have a couple in your arms.

You love to play with babies. You hold them and love them and shower them with kisses. We took you to see baby Gwen and you were sweet for a little bit, but then wanted to hold her yourself.




When you want to nurse you say "puh-puh". I have tried to wean you ,but you are not ready. I still end up sleeping with half of the night. We hang out a lot and you always try to imitate me, especially when I am getting after Christian.


For FHE you get excited when we sing "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam" and you pop up all over the room.
You can fold your arms and say a prayer. This is your prayer "daddy home". You love your Daddy. If he is home you are under his feet, in his arms, or on his back. You and dad like to point your fingers at me and shout "No, no Mama"! Naughty, but cute!
You hate to see Daddy go in the morning and to soothe your anguish we have you push daddy's car and soon you happily wave goodbye.

We love you Jessie! Such a sweet darling!
