18 Months Old!

     Jeffrey is a year and a half today. His doctor was impressed with his verbal skills. He said, "keep doing what your doing!" He has very good vision and is a very healthy, happy boy! His doctor said, "Your hair is more red every time I see you." His word list is growing and growing. We love when he says "turtle" because it's so perfect and clear. (He knows what all these words mean too, pointing to them in books or looking for them while we're on walks.) He'll sing "turtle, turtle, turtle..." He gasps a little and holds his hand up to cup his ear when we hear an airplane, inside or outside. We showed him a rainbow before going into a restaurant and he was looking for when we left. After Daddy leaves for work, he sings, "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy..." So many precious little things.

 He eats whole peaches, pears and bananas nowadays

A Great Visit with Friends

     Kristina and Klara visited us this past weekend. We mostly just did our regular thing and relaxed and caught up. We made it to the farmer's market and walked around some shops Saturday morning and out to eat Mexican food Saturday night. With two babies, that's all the out-and-about we did! It was a great catch-up!

 

The Quad

     Gigi took us to the Quadrangle at Ft. Sam yesterday. I hadn't been in about 20 years. It is a beautiful place with such history, built in 1876. The animals are so friendly and pleasant, perfect for Jeffrey to interact with. It was a beautiful morning!
