Random JJ Moments

I know this picture is blurry, but it still captures one of JJ's favorite things. He loves to put on any shoes he finds around the house. Sometimes it's really cute and he does a good job putting them one and walking in them. Other times, it is the cause for many tantrums. He gets made when the shoes doesn't go on right, or if he can't walk in them. But this is JJ, walking around in shoes to big for him.

JJ often surprises me with his new skills. In the past, we put JJ's food on his tray and call it good. I have been trying to introduce silverware and dishes to him. Some days he does well, and others, he dumps his food out on his tray and throws the dishes on the floor. This day I gave him a spoon. He did pretty good. I imagine it's like eating with chop sticks though. You can do it, it just takes longer to eat. JJ now now gives us a reason to lock the garage door. There isn't much storage space in our kitchem, especially out of his reach. So we have some shevles set up in our garage with our canned goods, Capri Suns and such. JJ has figured out how to open doors around our house, the garage being one of his favorites. If we forget to lock the garage door, JJ goes out into the garage and grabs a drink and brings it to us to open.

JJ has shown an interest in cars and trucks for a while now. We kept putting the "Cars" movie on for him thinking that he would love it. It took a while, but finally it clicked, or something, and he watches most of the movie now in one sitting, hardly moving. Sometimes, it is the only thing that pulls him out of a tantrum.
