Funny Stuff

story #1
Jordan's head is a little flat from always looking to the left. I kept trying to make him look to the right, but he never wanted to. If he was looking at me I would turn him around, putting his feet when his head was, so that he would have to turn his head to the right to look at me. But it didn't usually work. He would find something else to look at. Only putting his head right up against the couch would make him look the other way. But he would get mad after being forced to look to the right very long. Then last week at his doctor's appointment, the doctor noticed his flat head and told me to have Jordan look the other way so his head wouldn't be so flat. I told him I try to, but he just doesn't cooperate very much. But ever since the doctor said to look the other way, Jordan does it. He sleeps facing the left. He moves his head around a lot more. I kept telling Jordan that he need to look the opposite way more often or else he might regret it later in life if his head stayed flat. I guess he needed a professional opinion before he would listen though.

story #2
Last week Doug and I were watching my sister's daughters. The kids were all sitting down for a snack, when the littlest one, who is two and half, said she had to go the bathroom. I told her to go to the bathroom and go. Then she said "I'm going!" She went to the bathrooom on our kitchen chair. Luckily I had some pull-ups for Jack that she could wear (she was excited to wear them) and some clothes that would fit her (good thing I went garage sale shopping last week). The rest of the night no one could sit on the chair since I put cleaning stuff on it. Then on Friday we watched the girls again. Alli wanted to sit in the same chair so I told her she could. As she was climbing on it, she said that she wouldn't go potty on it. It was pretty funny.

Cute things Jackson says:

He calls oranges "orange ones" So when he wants an orange he says I want an orange one. And when Doug and I eat one he says mommy (daddy) have orange one too.

When Jack wants help he'll say "momma help you" and when he wants to be held he says "momma hold you"... he doesn't quite understand what you means yet.

Today at church Jack had a poopy diaper during nursery so they brought him to me. When they were walking down the hall, he saw me in relief society and said "mommy!" really loudly. Everyone in relief society heard him. Many people laughed. It was very cute... and funny too.

On Jack's birthday he got a phone call from my sister and his grandma Dance. When they wished him happy birthday he said happy birthday back to them. Also, before his birthday we were teaching him how old he was. So to get him to say 2 after we asked him how old he was we would clap and say "yay" when he would say 2. When he was talking to grandma Dance a part of their conversation went like this:
Grandma "Happy birthday Jackson!
Jack "happy you"
Grandma sings happy birthday to Jackson
Jackson blows out imaginary candles
Grandma "how old are you"
Jack "2, yaaay" (while clapping)

Jack calls a lot of things ketchup. He calls syrup ketchup. and mustard and barbeque sauce, and really anything that comes in a bottle. We don't even have ketchup very often so I don't know why he calls so many things ketchup. It would make more sense for him to call it all syrup, which we have much more often.

Today the church building was so hot that Jack was sweating. I felt bad for him. We took off his tie, unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, took off his shoes and socks, fanned him and he was still sweating.... I guess we'll have to find him some short sleeve shirts that he can wear to church for the hot days this summer.
