Whining Animals

Jared now recognizes his numbers 1-10. He started off with 3, 5, and 8 and quickly learned the rest. Of course, the easiest number (one) was the last one he learned. The numbers go wa, too, fwee, fo, fi, si, se, eight, ni, te. Big emphasis on fwee, fi, and eight.

He also knows some colors, particularly blue and orange. Orange because I eat oranges.

He has an annoying little habit of picking up something he shouldn't have. If I ask for it, he runs to anyone else and give it to them or drops it near them. It's comical. We were in Trader Joe's tonight to pick up some groceries and I learned how fast he can be. He can very quickly grab something and toss it in the cart before you can say "Jared, no..."

He enjoys the outdoors, but he'd rather have mommy than go outside. When asked if he wanted to go for a ride, he looked at Mommy to see if she was going also. When he saw she was going, he was happy to get his shoes and jacket on.

The other day I was going to go outside but I did not have my socks on. I told Jared to go get me a pair of socks. He went upstairs to the dresser and brought back a pair of socks for me. It's very cute the way he does this.
