Dear Jordan,
This has been a beautiful weekend in Oklahoma! It's so funny that every week day in January has been cold, but somehow every weekend has been amazing. Yesterday, the high was in the sixties and it was sunny with very little wind. Magical is probably a good way to describe the day! We went to the FBC playground with Henry and Ms. Courtney and then joined Mr. Brad at Chick-fil-a. You did a great job of playing by yourself while we were there so we could talk to the grown-ups. After your nap, we went to the park with Aftyn and her parents. Then they came over and ya'll played in the front yard for a while. They stayed for dinner. It was a great day to spend as a family with some of our friends.
This was a big week for our family. We found out that I am pregnant! We are completely surprised and astonished at this news. We are so thankful for this sweet little baby who will be your sibling. God's timing is perfect and I know He is going to be going to be glorified through your sibling's life, just as He is through yours. As excited as we are, we are so thankful that God closed my womb for so many years. He knew best that you were supposed to be ours and we are very very grateful that He made us wait so long. You were worth the wait, little man!
Your new favorite game is the copy-cat game. You and your Dad started playing it. You will do some sort of action and he will mimic you. You are so funny to watch as you try to come up with new things to do. You two will go all over this house. You wanted to play it with me the other day, but I didn't feel like putting in the effort your Dad does, so we made up a new version. This time, I make silly noises and copy it. We have a great video of it. You love mimicking and learning new words.
I have a word to add to the Jordan dictionary of silly toddler-ness. This week's word is yuck...but you say "Yutch". It is so stinking cute! I don't want to correct you, so I've started saying it too! Your favorite book right now is "Good Night, Gorilla" but you called it "Bye Lilla". Eek! The cuteness! Also, you say "Bite?" when you offer your Dad or I a bite of your food or want a bite of our food? Not as cute when you are offering a booger that you have on your finger!
Well, it's been a good week. You get bigger and bigger and I love you more and more. We are so blessed that you are our son. God definitely knew what he was doing and He created a masterpiece when He thought of you!
This week's picture is during your nap yesterday. Leon was standing guard over you!
Love,
Mom
