Although Jadon is potty trained, we have had a few accidents this month. This one happened last week, while he was eating lunch in his high chair. He hates the feeling of having wet pants..."Uh oh!" He stands bow-legged and looks at us like, "Sorry, but I need help...like now!" We laughed at how he was standing there with his hands in his pockets and a big wet spot on his behind. When I went to get the camera, he looked confused, but kept saying, "Cheese," and laughing because we were. Hard to be frustrated, when he's so darn cute!
Jadon has also learned the names of everyone in our family now. Here he is yelling for his daddy. When he yells, "Jamie," it reminds me of Rocky calling, "Yo, Adrienne!" In this clip he is also telling Daddy it's time to go in his room and play basketball. At least 20 times a day, I hear him telling Jamie, "Gotta go shoot!" He even pushes Jamie back into the room, when he tries to come out, telling him, "Gotta go shoot." He could watch Jamie shoot that nerf basketball all day long! Only for the next few years will you be his Michael Jordan, Daddy :/ Sadly, by the time he's five, he'll know better ;)
This month, Jadon also learned to identify the rest of the alphabet and all of his numbers 1-10. It's so hard to get a video clip that is short enough to upload, but I did what I could. Here he is labeling the letter "L" for "Lisa" (his Gramma) and the letter "O" for "octopus." One of my personal favorites is "A" for "Auda" (Andrea) and "B" for "boo boo." ;) You'll notice in the second clip that he doesn't have pants on; that's because he loves taking them off now...including his "udder dayer"...I must here that word a thousand times a day!
Other funny/cute things Jadon is now doing: He says "Good norning" (yes Norning) to me, Jamie and Macy every morning, and also tells each of us good night one by one. He has started using the word "no," not as a word of defiance (not even once yet), but to tell us his preferences. He will ask for his flashcards or to watch a video, and if we hand him the wrong one, he'll say "no." It's great because we can now ask him if he needs to go potty, and he can honestly tell us if he has to, and not be defiant by saying so...although I'm sure that part of using "no" is coming very soon :/ I dread it! For now, we are somewhat enjoying his new found use of opinions and desire for independence (only to a degree though)...it's kind of sad at the same time. Our baby is surely growing up :/
I may add more later, but one other cute thing Jadon is doing is wanting to kiss Macy or hold her a lot. Everytime he kisses her, it is followed by an "I love sister!" Adorable! But he still gets an ornery look in his eye and throws things at her too :/ Grrr! Only three months until we have a two year old??? :(
