"Ball-Ball!!"


Out of nowhere this past weekend, Jackson wanted to watch football with Daddy.  He calls it "Ball-ball" but at least he understands the concept of two syllable words.  He's pretty good at recognizing football vs. all other television.  He would proceed to point at the tv after each commercial break and announce loudly, "Ball-ball." Then we stopped at the butcher shop on Monday to pick up some burgers to grill and they had a little tv on the wall with an old game playing and he pointed and said, "Ball-ball."  



The expression of a 1-year old when the opening credits of Paw Patrol start playing.  Every time the TV gets turned on, he turns to us and asks, "Go-go?" - aka his way of asking if he can watch Paw Patrol.  He must call it "Go-Go" because when the pups leave headquarters to save the day, the song sings, "Go, go, go, go..." Once a day (at most) is all he gets, though!


Jackson is doing very well with having to share toys and Mommy's attention a few days a week!  He is becoming more and more fascinated with his new friend, but once he's had enough, he's had enough and he just wants Momma to hold him.   Most of the time he is too busy to stay in one place and play for long (She pretty much sits in one place and doesn't move), but I stepped out to throw away a diaper and came back to them playing so cute together!




In an attempt to make sure Jackson gets enough high-calorie foods and he drinks some milk, him and I often share chocolate-banana smoothies for an afternoon snack.  He loves them and will drink as much as I'll give him!  


He thinks the vacuum cleaner is just another convenient walker that he can push in any direction without it getting stuck because the wheels swivel 360*.
