This little man is growing so much, and even though I don’t post monthly updates any more, I thought I’d share a few of his latest accomplishments!

Jude has been changing in so many new ways!  He is starting to talk more, and he’s very insistent on telling us what he wants.  He’ll point to things and say “dat!”  He loves to play tickling games, and he’s learned how to point out where a few body parts are (nose, hair, belly button).

He claps sometimes, and he waves his hands and dances when we sing or play music.  Call me crazy, but we even think he tried to sing a line from “Jesus Loves Me” the other day!

Jude knows a few signs, such as milk, more, and thank-you.  He loves using “more” at the dinner table to get more food!  He signs (and often tries to say) thank-you as well.  It’s so sweet!

He likes when I read books to him and swing him on the porch.  He is a super fast crawler, and he’s getting so close to standing on his own and walking!  We’re pretty sure he’ll be walking within a month (at least we hope so!).

We’re so thankful for our happy little guy!

P.S. I know it looks like he has a sucker in that photo, but it’s really a toy spoon.
