John- 20 Months Old


JJ turned 20 months old on November 30th. We had a fun month spent at Homecoming festivities for Harding, celebrating Thanksgiving in Ohio and decorating for Christmas!
John is starting to talk more and more every day. It is fun to hear his new words and to see how he is starting to understand things more every day. One day, we were playing outside and he had a ball that Will wanted. When Will asked him for it, JJ said "please?". After Will said please, JJ handed it over. I guess he is used to us having him say please when he asks us for something!
John absolutely loves cats. When you ask him what a cat says, he makes this very realistic purring sound. It is so cute. He loves stuffed animals and has quite a collection in his crib. There is barely room in there for him. His favorites are a stuffed cat and a little yellow lamb. He always has to have those right by him when he is tucked into bed at night.
John loves the Christmas decorations. We have some kid-friendly ornaments down low on the tree that he likes to take off. He thinks that the ornaments are balls.
Some of the words that we hear often around the house are "Lamby, cup, Papa, Gigi, Will, Dora, cat-cat, the end, ball, Brown Bear."
Here are a few pictures from this month.
