Ahh..where did summer go? I guess it is still technically summer, so we cannot complain just yet. September promises to be a very busy month for the Gregson fam. We are trying to close on our new home which brings with it packing, moving, painting, sanding, cleaning - ETC! Alex and I are both taking classes this semester, which start next week (agghhh)! We will also be looking to move Jake from his current daycare to one closer to our new home. SO much to do, so little time!
Jake and I have been enjoying our Wednesdays off together and today was no different. As always we tried to pack way too much in today and were both wiped out by 7 pm. We left the house bright and early at 7:15 and headed to help Papa with his high school soccer practice. Jake had a great time with the girls and loved carrying the soccer ball around (possible goalie?!). Papa took us up to the beach and treated us to a great lunch at Markey's. He loved his time with Jake so much that he took the (VERY) long way home from the beach! We had a tour of areas I have not been to in a long time and along the way we ran into SuperCuts for a quick cut for the JAke man. I have to say he looks adorable..and a bit older. Before we left MA we headed over to see Gramma Bettie and had a great visit with her. She was so excited to see how big Jake had gotten in just the few weeks since she has seen him last. He would not stop blowing her kisses..brightened her day! Which in turn brightened mine.
Jake has changed so much in the past few weeks..he is still his curious self and roams the house looking for anything he can get his hands on. His favorites now are the shampoo and conditioner bottles from the bath tub. It's cute to see him tuck them under his arms and walk the house..not so cute at 6 am when the shower is void of anything to cleanse my hair! He loves crayons and it's cute to watch him attempt to color..but not so cute when he sticks the crayons in his mouth and tries to eat them after he is bored of coloring. We have put the crayons away until he is rid of the "everything in the mouth" stage.
He is a sponge and really picks up on the little things we do..
Laughing. He LOVES to laugh and throw his head back as he laughs..it's so cute! I think he mimics Daddy with the throwing of the head while chuckling away.
"Really?" His new favorite question. This is a mommy trait! He likes to walk the house saying "REAHHH??" and sometimes puts his hands out when he asks it. When he grabbed my cellphone, put it on his shouler and leaned into it saying "REAH?" I knew he was copying me. I have made a mental note to stop saying it so much, thanks Jake!
He has the "more" sign down and loves to use it when he is eating..we are working on "please" and "thank you" next.
Kisses - the boy loves to share kisses..both on the face (anywhere on the face) and by blowing them and making kissing noises. Some times at night he will stop playing and just walk over to one of us and kiss us. At times, he will walk back and forth between us, kissing away. Who could refuse his cute face coming at you over and over?
There are no pictures just yet of his new haircut, but I promise to share as soon as there are some.
Happy September!
