Future Jude...

Dear Future Jude,

One day, when you come to read this to see what you were like as a baby...I'll have to direct you to Facebook. Because I suck at keeping up with blogging. Ask your daddy to buy me a laptop.

Love,
Mommy

P.S. At almost 20 months, you have a vocabulary of like 40+ words, can identify your hands, feet, eyes, nose, ears; you can do things to mommy's and daddy's phones that we don't know how to (I think Siri understands you better than she understands me); you dance like a maniac; you love to play drums; everyone thinks you're super adorable; you love to color; you're really well-behaved most of the time (those other times...see the picture below of you in the car seat with the sucker all over your face). You're ridiculously smart, kid.

Trying this again

So it was apparently too late last night to realize that it was 3 months since my last blog. And obviously the pictures didn't show up. So we'll try again today.

The Dude's newest obsession is bubbles. He's a pro at spotting bottles of bubbles. Every time he sees a bubble wand or a bubble solution, he flips. The kid loves bubbles. And books. He's not so great at letting me read to him, but he likes to sit down on his chair and kick back with a book and look at the pictures. I'll take it for now.

His language recognition is crazy good right now. You can have a great one-sided conversation with the kid. He can tend to seem bratty now, since he knows what you're asking, he'll pretend like he's going to do it, then run away laughing like the crazy dude he is. He's definitely a stinker.

We tried getting him in to the baby pool in the back yard today, but he kind of hated it. To be fair, the water was really cold. And before taking him out, my spray on sunscreen was clogged and when it finally came out, it sprayed him on the chest and freaked him the crap out. So he was traumatized before we ever stepped foot in the little plastic pool.

Anyway, pictures of The Dude in the last 6 months, since that's pretty much how long it's been.
