Yuck!

Jordon's saying more words almost every day now. Now his favorite word is "yuck". He says it about dirty diapers, about the insect page in his animal book, about getting dirt on his hands.... and sometimes when it doesn't even really make sense. He also seems to understand "hot" and says it when food comes out of the microwave or oven, and about burning candles. "Hat" and "puppy" continue to be favorites. He also says words like "bubbles and "Grandma". Don and I are noticing that he really seems to understand more of what we are saying and is able to follow commands now. I took him to have his feet measured over the w/e and his foot has grown so that he now needs a size 6 shoe instead of a 5. So he is growing, even if he's not gaining much weight. He's pretty much been stalled out at 22# for a while now. We're thinking he might end up potty trained before busting out of the Huggies size 3's. Don and I are convinced that he's not gaining 'cause he burns off everything he takes in- he eats pretty well but probably not enough to sustain constant running and climbing. I'm planning to enter him in the baby health contest in Concordia this weekend just for fun. Not expecting he will win anything, unless there is an award for a one-armed runt.
