Jrew is picking up many full sentences now including: What is it? Who's that? Where is it? I found it. I dropped my... I found my... He is quick to apologize and does so way too often. He will usually say Sorry Mama 5-10 times before moving on. I hate it. It makes me feel so guilty and so I sought out the advice of a friend. The advice was this: continue to give tons of positive attention throughout the day, acknowledge the first sorry, but ignore the rest. I guess I don't need to tell you how hard this is. I just want to hug him every time and remind him that "It's alright". Sometimes, he says sorry for no reason at all.
He's a sweet boy. He is very empathetic and his preschool teacher said he is always ready to help others kids feel better if they are crying when their parents leave. He shares and listens well at school - apparently we are doing something wrong at home. Just kidding. He loves the word NO! but usually responds to correction with "yes ma'am".
Jazz is standing up more often now. She is on the verge of taking steps between objects like the ottoman and the couch, etc... She looks as if she's going to attempt the step, but changes her mind quickly to a crawl. She did step forward with one foot yesterday in an attempt to let go of me and move to the couch. She is a wild one. She loves to growl at you and LOVES to play rough. She rolls on the floor with Jrew all the time. She also loves to pull his hair to which he replies with "Oh Jazzy". :) He couldn't get any sweeter.
Jazz is saying Mama, Bye-bye, and Hi. She also says Dada sometimes. She loves to babble. She is eating some table food. Her dinner a few nights ago included soft green beans, bread, and a vienna sausage. She also loves bananas, crackers, and graham crackers. She is not too good at the sippy cup but loves it very much. She is also doing well transitioning to formula during the day when I'm at work! So sad to know she doesn't really NEED me anymore.
I must go. I guess I have to teach something today. :)
