Wow life is crazy!

So my last post has been awhile...I haven't been very dilligent in writing new things in my life. Well whats new with the rau family? Well..

Jack is 16 months old and is as busy as a bee. First he will pull the books off the shelf then after "helping" me put them back he'll sneak off to empty his laundry basket. then off to the cupboards, then the pantry. You get the pictures. Books tell you to not immediately clean up after your kid and wait until they are in a nap otherwise it will frustrate them. I am not joking i have read it. Well who ever wrote that doesn't realize that all the above happened within 10 minutes! My house would look like a disaster zone if i waited til jack was asleep! Not happening. The silver lining to all this? Jack has learned what stop and no mean, whether he listens to them or not is another matter. The dreaded word nap is also well known.

A few things that jack has learned is to say "whurditgo" which he says all the time (where'd it go?), no, nana, dada, mama, suu (my guess shoe since he says it when i put his shoes on). My favorite word that he says is go. Its simple but the reason i love it is whenever we are in the car and matt picks up speed to enter the interstate jack will yell GO!!!GO GO!! so adorable!!!

He loves to follow anyone around to see what they are doing. He is so curious about everything and wants to learn everything in the world around him. He is an amazing little guy!
