Here is Jack helping with the laundry. I gave him the full laundry basket, and he knew just what to do with it:
Here is Jack helping Daddy mow the lawn. (I know his dad really appreciated it!)
Here is Jack showing me how a bike is meant to be ridden. (note: I originally tried to put him on his attached toddler seat so I could ride the bike, but he knew where the better seat was and insisted on sitting THERE)
We went around the block like this- me balancing the bike while he cruised. I am thinking it's about time for his own tricycle.
Jack demonstrating how to swipe a credit card.
Jack using the "credit card" (I don't think I'm quite ready for him to master this skill)
Jack showin' how it's done, miniature golf style.
While golfing, after I hit my ball I'd have to race to beat Jack to get in my second putt, or else he'd pick up the ball and return it to me. Ever so helpful.
Jack mastering the art of tee-ball while riding a truck:
I'm not sure how much everyone else will appreciate this video since you can't see the video Jack is dancing to, but I love it! He's copying the monkeys from the website playhousedisney.com as they dance some funky monkey moves. My favorite is when his hands are overhead, mouth w-i-d-e open, and head shaking. I laugh every. single. time.
Jack is growing up so fast that I feel overwhelmed trying to capture all of the memories. He is such a good and sweet boy; we're truly blessed to have him. I think his terrible-two's phase lasted about a month, which is witness to his sweet temperament. Case in point: while picking up diapers at Babies 'r' Us the other day we let Jack ride around on a really fun tricycle. He loved it! The only problem was that it was time to put it back up. We tried to coax him off the bike and upon Daddy returning it to the aisle, Jack started to cry. I luckily was struck with inspiration and gave the trike back to Jack and asked him to put it away. He quietly and no-fuss put the trike where it belonged and walked away. I am just so impressed by him! I love you Jack!
