Jace WAS 18 months!

Jace was 18 months in January, so not THAT behind, but I have some catching up to do.  Here are his pictures, I took them and my awesome sister Jen edited them for me. 

 Jace brings so much fun, joy, love, and attitude into our family! That's right! He's a sweet lil thing, but he's not going to let you (and especially Cade) walk all over him. He tries to be tough and will say in a scruffy voice "HhAY!" and then look away and slowly look back out of the corner of his eyes to see if you are looking! It's pretty cute....but we are working on nice words. :)

 Jace is so sweet and loveable.  With that said he is pretty stingy with his kisses!  Dad can usually get kisses but the rest of us have to work for it....bribery with treats works real good. 

 He can count to 11, knows most his colors, and repeats most of the alphabet. He is very aware of whats around him and can recognize where we are going from what he can see out of his window.  My favorite lately is "Jeanne's house".  She's a lady I visit teach and she subbed in nursery one time and Jace just loves her so everytime we pass her house...."Jeanne's house"

  He is such a cute little brother and seriously LOVES Cade! Every morning he asks "Tade?", then when he finds him he says "hi tade" in the sweetest little voice.  He tries to do and say everything Cade does and for the most part it's good, but Cade has tried to get Jace in trouble a handful of times.  If I've asked them to specifically not do something, Cade will encourage Jace to do it! Stinker!

 Jace is a good little singer and sings everything in the highest, cutest little voice.  He loves to sing and has a few favorite songs: Wheels on the bus...knows all the actions and words...pretty cute
                                                Alligator "SNAP" song
                                                Twinkle Twinkle
                                                I am like a star shining brightly
                                                "Of God" (I am a child of God)

 STATS: 21lbs. ......get back to you on height....can't remember and can't find check up paper :)

Jace LOVES: his dad and brother (and mom of course but really you should see how he reacts when   he sees his dad and brother! so cute!)
                       being outside
                       trucks (especially if they have a trailor)
                       sucking on his food
                       closing doors
                       flushing toilets
                       playing hide and seek with Cade
                       SHOES/BOOTS
                       his "Blank" (blanket) *I have 3 fuzzy Christmas blankets that didn't get put back in with the Christmas stuff because he became a little too attached to them!
                      
We love Jace and everything he brings to our family! He is such a good boy and can't wait to see how he and Cade grow closer the older they get!  He is such a blessing and we are so thankful to be his parents.
