Chris and I have become acutely aware of the fact that our days of being parents to an adorable baby boy are all too quickly dwindling, and that our days of being parents to a toddler are rapidly approaching.

Jack can say "mama" and "dada", and is pretty aware of who they are related to. He also says "dja" for Josh. He's also started shaking his head no at us when he doesn't want something.

We expect him to start crawling any day, but he doesn't seem too interested in it. He'll get himself up on his knees, but instead of moving forward, will push himself up to a sitting position.

He's also eating table food on a pretty regular basis. I make muffins a lot for breakfast, and he'll eat one of those, or oatmeal, and will eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch.

It's exciting to see him growing up, and seeing more and more of his personality coming out, but I wish it would slow down just a little bit.
