Just a few quick things...

If I don't post this, I will forget, because I am sure it will change soon. But it's so cute!!

Jack's new things:

• VERY PROPER ENGLISH. All of a sudden, when you ask him a question, he answers with a very proper full-sentence answer...although his grasp of the correct pronouns is still lacking. We have no idea where this came from, but it started very recently and it's hilarious. For example: "Jack, do you want an orange?" "Yes, my do."OR "Jack, don't spill that!" "No, my not." OR "Jack, do you have a poopy diaper?" "No, my don't."
• "I'm so happy!" He says this ALL THE TIME. It's really cute and makes me feel good because I think it means he likes whatever particular thing we are doing at that moment. Today, I was letting him drive his cars all over my arm and he looked up at me and said randomly, "Mommy, I'm so happy!"It's very adorable. :)
• Babies - his new obsession. I think it's because of all the baby talk in our house, but anytime he sees a baby he gets SUPER excited and either starts squealing and pointing, or tries to pet the baby. Other parents alternately think this is cute and/or slightly creepy. I explain that he's getting a little sister soon and they seem to understand.
• "TA-DA!" He will build a fort, house, or just make a pile of stuff and say "TA-DA!" like it's the greatest invention in the world. :)
• "It has scary eyes!" I also don't know where this came from, but any time something seems scary to him, he tells me it has scary eyes. Hmm.
• "Don't tell me!" When he's doing something bad, and he knows I am going to tell him to stop or tell him no, he pre-empts me by saying "don't tell me!" I can't help but always respond with "well if you weren't doing XYZ bad thing, I wouldn't have to tell you..." and I am not sure he understands that response, but really, what else do you say??
• Playing airplane. I guess we really have taken the kid on too many airplane trips, because now it's a (VERY LONG AND INVOLVED) game. We start by getting dressed, putting on our shoes, getting our tickets, boarding the plane, sitting in our seats, buckling our seat belts, giving the flight attendant our tickets, watching a movie, going night night, waking up, landing, deplaning, telling the pilot thank you, getting off the plane, riding the train, riding in the stroller, going to the car, and going home. Yes, really. He knows every step!
