Jeremiah Update




Here's a conversation we had at the dinner table.
Jeremiah swallows, "Where'd it go?"
Me: "It's in your tummy."
Jeremiah lifts up his shirt and looks at his tummy.
Me: "When you swallow the food goes from your mouth to your tummy."
Jeremiah holding up one hand and putting the other in his mouth: "I get it!"
He tried so hard to get it that he made himself gag! Matt and I were laughing One of the funniest things I've seen him do.

One of his favorite things to do is play outside and look for bugs. He walks around the yard, "You-who! Bugs! Where'd da go? Go to church, bug go to church." I love that that's his first thought. Encourages me that we're on the right track with him.

When we pray at meals and before bed Jeremiah always makes sure we hold Ephram's hands too. Jeremiah asks often that we thank God for Ephram. He's such a sweet big brother.When his love isn't too tough.


He loves to play with Tonks. Tonks isn't super well trained so she doesn't drop her toy on command. He's discovered that if he and Tonks both have her toy, he just needs to scream as loud as he can and she'll drop it. Works every time!

He knows his colors.

Can count to three and we're working on our other numbers.

9 days out of 10 he doesn't get out of bed before falling asleep! Huge milestone for us!
