These Days with Judd

A few pictures of Judd

Judd collecting rain water...

then pouring his rain water into his water table.

He just recently got this new chair from Poppy and SheShe. He loves to read to himself, watch TV, or eat dinner in his chair. I think it might be his new best friend next to his man towel of course!

Here is an example of a mess. Yes...I know...typical! Instead of eating his mustard with his corn dog like normal people, Judd wanted to finger paint with the mustard. At least, he his happy while making a mess!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Judd just is about to turn TWO in November. It is so hard to believe that not only will he be a big brother soon but my sweet little baby boy will be...TWO! I am thankful that God chose Jason and I to raise this little boy. My prayer is that one day Judd will be a man of his word and that he loves his Savior. We know he is a precious gift and cannot get enough of him. Judd at times can be a mess but overall he is sweet, happy and passionate little boy. His only pace is FAST therefore I declare him a mess. Others just tell me he is a typical boy. Raising a boy is defiantly a new experience for me. I see new challenges a head of me everyday like the first time Judd wants me to hold a bug (I do not do creatures!) or him missing the toilet. God has a sense of humor that is for sure. As these challenges arise, I will try to embrace them with love and compassion. Because, I truly am grateful that Jason allows me to raise our son at home. I adore my job!

Also, Jason and I like to point out to each other which qualities Judd has adopted from his parents. Yes, our child is very independent and headstrong much like me. I was never one listen or take much advice because I would figure it out on my own. Judd has this same quality which is not all that bad. He likes to explore and discover all on his own. As for Jason's quality, he tends to be shy and a man of few words. Judd does like to talk at times but he has become very shy in public. Oh yes...Judd has also picked up the wonderful trait of spitting from this father. Do you see any challenges in my future?

JUDD's Likes and Dislikes lately:
  • He loves to play/drive his cars ALL DAY! (Sometimes he does get mad at his cars if they do not do exactly what he wants them to do.)
  • Loves to play outside...rain or shine
  • Obsessed with brushing his teeth. This boy cannot get enough of a toothbrush.
  • Likes Play hide and seek
  • Loves run wild like a banshee outside
  • Likes copying Jason
  • Still loves cell phones and knows how to work them
  • Developing quite the vocabulary.
  • He can say: Beez (please), eeths (teeth), hat, bye, oozes (shoes), side (outside), goal, ball, goo (drink), bath and continues to speak Juddism.
  • He still loves his bath time
  • We have discovered that Judd does not like wearing long sleeves! He knows how to sign "all done." So once we put him in his long sleeves, he walks around signing "all done". It is going to be a long winter!

We are having a blast watching Judd grow and change. He truly is such a joy and makes life more fun. We are so proud to be is his parents. Looking forward to fun days ahead...
