Dear Jordan,
I feel like it's about daily that you shock me with some way you've grown. This week, we noticed that quite a few of your pants are too short now. And you keep learning more words. I love this stage. I love hearing your comments about things. And I love your mis-prounouncing words. For example, rainbow is "bee-bow" and catch is "chatch". And I got a great video of you this week saying "Here he ares" instead of "there it is".
You have been getting so much better at controlling your emotions. There were a couple of days last week that we had some fits thrown, but for the most part, you are staying in control, even when I tell you no! We haven't been able to get out as much this week because I'm getting a lot more slow and uncomfortable. We went for a ten minute walk today and my ankles were swollen before we got home. Sigh. But Baby Marcus will be here soon enough!
You talk about Baby Marcus all of the time. You are already a great big brother!
Your new thing you like to do is bed time is "snuggle". There is a line at the end of a book about a baby that says she likes to "snuggle up with us". Yesterday, after your nap you said, "Mama, snuggle up with us?" So I rocked you and sang to you for a while and you enjoyed it. Then last night, we snuggled for a while. I didn't want to get up, but you won't go to sleep if someone is in there to distract you. Your dad learned that the hard way on Sunday when he wanted to take a nap with you. You kept squealing and giggling so he had to go his separate way so you would go to sleep!
One of things you always ask is "What are you doing?" All of the time, you will just walk into a room and say "Mama, what are you doing?" Well, I was down on the floor stretching my back. I was on my hands and needs you and were sitting in the recliner. You said, "Mama?" I said "yes?" And then you said, "Mama, are you a horse?" I'm glad you asked before you just jumped on. Not when I'm this pregnant!!
This weekend was your brother's baby shower. Your Mimi and Aunt Megan and cousin Nora (who you looooooove!) came and then spent some time with us. You love spending time with your family. And you got to see Aunt Abby on Sunday. Quite a weekend!!
Well, little man. It won't be long until your brother gets here. I hope you are as excited and ready as I am!
I love you, buddy.
