My 17th month has proven to be the best month ever! I had a visit from Nanna and Pop-Pop (see previous post) and then a trip to see Grammy and Grampy in St. Louis. I had so much fun! We went to the pool a few times, I learned how to use the slip-n-slide, and we went to the zoo (rated the best in the nation), and all around the town! I loved the zoo - so many animals and cool stuff...my favorite were the turtles (terter) and the fish (ish) and of course the gators (chomp chomp). It was too hot to see the monkeys and sea lions though. I did however, get to cool off with the penguins - they even splashed and got me wet!
All of this, yet a month ago, I showed little interest in the animals at the Charlotte rescue zoo...I'm tellin' ya - I've had a lot of changes this month. I repeat just about EVERYTHING I hear (yes, everything...watch your mouth mommy and daddy), and I mimic everything I see...I know my shapes, I know my racecar drivers, I know my animals and the noises they say, I know my different trucks and the sounds they make, I can sing now, my dancing has definitely improved, and finally I can say "help me" instead of "eh heh eh heh eh heh" in a whiney voice. And lets not forget that I found my nostrils this month and I like to let my finger hang out all day in there. All of this stuff is new this month. I don't know if I'm on target, advanced, or behind but either way - mom and dad are amazed at how smart I am and what I learn each day. Next month is the big "18" - can't wait to see what comes with that!!!
Here are some pictures from Grammy&Grampy's house and the zoo. Please leave a comment if you visit - I'm starting to wonder if anyone is listening... Thanks Renee, for your monthly contribution. :)

Cutie pie! I'm an old ZTA friend of kelly's that found your cute site through Kelly's. He's precious!
It sounds like Jack is keeping busy! The zoo sounds like a lot of fun!
Ummm... I stop by often too Jack! I just didn';t leave a comment on your last post. Anyhow, I agree with your parents. You are a very smart boy. How lucky to have already found your nostril. I wonder what else you could stick up there besides your finer?
I stop by all the time (of course) and pretty much check for new Jackster posts daily. Keep up the good work and learning all these great new things (careful what you say Mom and Dad)Love and miss you, great aunt Mare and great uncle Tim xoxoxoxoxoxo
He is just too cute Kate! Wonder when the little guy is going to be a "line crosser" just like his mom.
Well, Jack you certainly are getting to be a big boy. Grampy and I had so much fun when you came with Mom (Ma) and Dad (Ta)to visit us in St. Louis. We miss you so much and can't wait to see you again!
