He has also started testing his vocal chords. I can't even reproduce the sounds he makes with words. Just know that he reaches a pretty high pitch when he is excited! He has also started giggling a little bit. At first it was only when we tickled him, then when we made silly faces at him, but now he does it when we laugh! So much fun!
Katherine is also getting to be a big girl. We won't know for sure until her check-up next week, but she is getting pretty tall. I think she is going to have long legs like her mama.
I can't believe she starts preschool next week! For the first few weeks Jack and I will have to hang out in the building because her class cannot have more than one child who hasn't turned three yet. But, once she turns three she'll be going three days a week by herself. Of course she won't know that Jack and I are in the building so as far as she knows, she starts her big girl school next week!
She is so funny. The things that come out of her mouth amaze me. I am sure that it is developmentally appropriate, but when she pulls three and four syllable words out of thin air it makes me realize how big she is getting. She told me yesterday that something was impossible. I know that isn't rocket science, but it just made me realize that she isn't a baby or even a toddler anymore!
One new thing that I am not excited about is the persistent "but why?" that she can pipe up with over and over and over again. Any ideas for quashing a string of those before you go crazy (or more likely just plain run out of answers)?
Anyway, here are some photos of Mr. Jack and his first attempts at locomotion.
