It's been a whirlwind couple of weeks with this little man. He's become such a toddler all of a sudden. And oh, boy, he's definitely perfecting his "make Mommy want to scream" routine.
.

Example #1- Get him out of the shower, put on the diaper & turn around to help the other kids get dried off. Approximately 3 minutes later, this is what I find in my room. Who knew that we even owned tapes anymore?
Example #2- He's trying to shorten my life span by scaring me to death.
Example #3- About a dozen times a day. Can't you just see him saying "Who, me? What did I do?"
Example #4- When Emma says "Mom, Jack is making a mess," Mommy had better listen! Applesauce, yum! 
Example #5- About 1 week ago, he was taking his first steps.
4 Days later, this is him. He chooses not to participate in the wobbly, falling down, dangerous stage. Instead, it's from 1 step at a time to kicking a ball while running in 4 days flat. CRAZY!!
Watch me go, Mom!

And just for fun, we got this a couple of weeks ago, too. It's Jack's first hearing aid that actually belongs to us! Well, actually not really. The audiologist ordered it for us, gave it to us, & then they tried to tell us that we needed to bring it back until we paid the full balance on our account. Great, OK. Except that they can't figure out how much we owe. One person says $1200, another $600, and the insurance says we owe nothing. We'll get it all straightened out eventually. I hope. We ordered one this year & will order the other next January to take full advantage of the insurance benefits. It is so small! It's about 1/3 inch shorter than the ones he has now, & it's only about 1/2 the width. It lays so close to his head, it's awesome. Hopefully this will reduce the number of times that we're sticking them back behind the ears every day.

Isn't it pretty?

Slow down, Jack!!! He's about to get a speeding ticket for growing up AND running so fast! He's going to be an athlete just like his Mama!
Ha ha ha ha! I'm dying laughing! What a busy little boy! It will be a while before Hayley will catch up to him (but we should have a play date soon regardless)!
Those are the prettiest hearing aids I have EVER seen! Although our pink ones might give those a run for their money! Speaking of money, hope everything gets figured out. And just be grateful since your insurance actually covers them! ;)
You didn't tell me that Jack was walking/running!
What a little mess.
I hate to say that child #3 is the challenge---it looks like you are finding that out for yourself!
Love you guys
Oh he is funny. But it looks like he's just keeping with his busy MOM.
Wow he looks like a CUTE handful! I love his laugh and smile, so infectious!
As a future audiologist I'd agree with you that his hearing aid is very cute. Oticon, right? Did you get some cool earmolds too?
