22 months

I haven't done an update on Jaqs lately, so I thought I'd share a little of what she's up to (and in to!) lately so I'd have it to look back on. I love looking back and seeing how much my baby girl has grown and changed! Cannot believe how close we're getting to her SECOND birthday. What?!
-constantly talking up a storm & parroting everything
-we can understand much of what you say, but of course, we have to translate for others
-you prefer veggies to fruit but prefer carbs to anything else ;)
-total milk-aholic, side note: milk="noke" no idea why, but it's cute!
-you LOVE smoothies & think it's ice cream.
-insist we pray before each meal
-we're in the middle of a move & you've been asking for "home??" fairly often
-RUNNING everywhere
-mickey mouse rocks your world
-very particular about the placement and order of things
-HATE having your hair brushed & refuse anything but having it clipped back with a bow
-you make us put our drinks on coasters ;)
-you announce whoever walks in the door. ie: "daddy's home!" "mommy's here!"
-you give the very best hugs and kisses. we'll never get enough!
-suddenly love to be rocked (mostly for stalling purposes, i presume)
-sleeping 11-12 hour nights & taking a 2-3 hour nap
-extremely shy with people you're not around regularly
-love to "help" with everything from laundry to loading/unloading the dishwasher
-if you hear me doing something, you come running saying "baby help!"
-love reading & can be found doing so in your closet several times a day
-you know some shapes: heart, square, circle, star, moon (crescent)
-you also can identify all basic colors & quite a few letters of the alphabet
-you are quite the wild child & love to do anything dangerous
-love trucks, tractors & motorcycles
-coloring is your favorite
-you have excellent manners :) almost always say "thank you," "please," and "no thank you"
-finally started referring to yourself as Jaqs instead of "baby" most of the time
-obsessed with shoes & can be heard saying "I like your shoes!" to everyone
-totally addicted to the paci--it's only allowed at nap/bedtime
-love playing mommy to your baby dolls & stuffed animals
-started going to the church nursery regularly
-wearing mostly 2T stuff, but tops are starting to get short again
-size 7 shoes
-size 4 diapers
-25 pounds, almost 34 inches...long & lean as always!

She is such a cutie! She sounds a lot like Mac. Very insistent on doing things on his own and helping me. I love that she's so polite and has such sweet manners. My wild child definitely does not. :)

She is precious!! I know I've said this before, but this is SUCH a fun age.
