My dear little Jackson-
You are now 30 months old and sometimes I can really tell. You my little guy are getting older and wiser every day. Don't get me wrong, you still like to lie on the floor and yell, take things from your brother and scream (sometimes you bite). But there are other times that you like to share and you love to play with other kids. Very often, Shane will ask for something and you will go get it for him. Then you ask him in a cute little voice to share: "Share Shane?" , sometimes he will share and when he doesn't well, you just take it from him and run.
ELMO is still a favorite of yours but Thomas is in a close second. You LOVE your brown Thomas shirt and want to wear it with ELMO socks every day (we don't let you but we try to wash it often so you can wear it as much as possible). Auntie came to visit this month and brought you new Thomas shirts, Thomas trains and Thomas books- and you were very excited about these! You love the trains and want to read the 14 Thomas books all of the time. For the first week we had the books you carried them around with you! Jackson, you LOVE to wear boots. You used to wear the blue boots with the lizards on them but recently you have started wearing the green frog boots and you wear them every day (yes you wear them with ELMO socks and Thomas shirts). You always say BOOTS, BOOTS, BOOTS if you do not have them on your feet.
Your words are coming along beautifully! In fact this morning you told me that you loved me! I love to hear that- it warms the cockles of my heart! You say it like: "I whove you mommy"- it is adorable! Just recently you have started to give kisses which is also nice on the receiving end. You and your brother have taken to strawberries and like to eat them as much as blueberries but you call them "Shawberries" and it is cute when you offer a strawberry to Shane and you say"Shawberry shane?"
Nap time and sleeping......you have your moments. You certainly will nap for Trish with no problem. But one day when Daddy was home you did not want to nap and he went into your room to find you and Shane playing with the window curtain on the floor and waving it like a flag! He told you to go to sleep but he still heard you laughing so when Daddy went back into the room you and Shane were covered in baby lotion! You climbed on top of the radiator and somehow got the lotion, opened it and put it all over each other and the room! Night time is a bit easier for you to fall asleep. You and Shane still fight over the various ELMO books- it is the only book you will read at night and sometimes you have started to sit on the bed and read the book by yourself. But we still have the nightly fights over mommy's lap- one night while I was getting you ready for bed, both you and Shane wanted to sit on my lap- you were already there but you wanted to get a different ELMO book that was on the bed- but in your little head, you knew that if you got up Shane would take your seat so you waited until Shane was distracted with something else before you tried to get the book- smart little guy! Jackson, you like me to lay down with you for one song and you like to play with my hair and necklace almost every night. Recently, you have started to whisper sleep, sleep, sleep and you curl up close to me while we are listening to the music. I think that you are the first one up most mornings because all we hear for a few minutes is Shane, Shane, Shane up - so I can only assume it is you trying to wake up your brother. The other morning Daddy went into the room to get you up and you both tore the sheets off the bed and were hiding under the sheets and you told Daddy to come under and play. ADORABLE.
My little Jackson, I love you so much! You are mommy's sun, moon and stars. You are everything to mommy.
Love- mommy
