Updates

Some updates on Jackson:
* He is into copying EVERYTHING we do!  This morning, I was reading the label on my yogurt, only to look over at Jackson and find him examining his cup ever so closely.  I finally realized he was trying to be like Mommy!  He copies everything I say too..sometimes it's cute...sometimes, not so much.  We've used this to our advantage and let him copy us as we read the scriptures.  He likes to sleep with his Book of Mormon and his Stand a Little Taller book by Pres. Hinckley.  It's really cute!
* He can hit a ball with a bat by himself and is so proud.
* He no longer takes off his diaper at nap or bed time and hasn't for a long time, ever since we started reading potty books.  We are hoping to attempt potty training this week.  I know I've said that about 10 times, but we are really going to do it this week-end, so we'll let you know how it goes.
* He has become quite the helper and can set the table, throw things away in the trash, put it in recycling, put clothes in the hamper, throw away diapers, give the baby her bottle, put his dirty dishes in the sink, partially dress and undress himself, put things in my grocery cart, help me cook, and much more!

Olivia
* She can not only roll form her tummy to her back, but now she rolls from her back to her tummy.  That girl can move, and she does all day!
* She is full on laughing now, and smiles when she sees her brother.  He, of course makes her laugh the hardest.
* She loves to stand in her exersaucer so she can see what's going on around her.  She is very alert and wants to be in the room with someone at all times...as long as she is awake.  Lucky for her, Jackson takes care of that because he is ALL OVER HER when she's awake, hugging and kissing her like crazy!
