sweet potato

the word: potatoes
how Jack says it: po-day-do

Potatoes are his favourite food of the moment. Actually his favourite THING right now. He eats mashed potatoes every day for lunch, as long as they are made by Dido or Grammie. He sing songs about potatoes (it I never hear the Wiggles sing Hot Potato again it will be too soon). He even plays with potatoes. A pot, lid, spoon, and a handful of baby potatoes can entertain a 1 1/2 year old for approximately the same length of time it takes to cook a meal.

birdies

I've decided to start writing in Jack's blog again. He's already a year and a half (20 months to be exact), and I'm finding that I have a small amount of time to spare (very small, but time none the less). He's starting to talk so much these days that I want to keep track of everything he says. Every day there's a new word or two. He mimics everything we says, and it sticks. It's just amazing.

The word: birds
How Jack says it: bou-dies

Birdies was one of Jack's original words. He loves watching about them, pointing at them in books, and looking for them when he hears them sing. Almost every car ride these days I hear 'mama, mama, a bou-die!'
