Zhoos! (aka Shoes)


When Jacob started walking last month we got him a few pairs of shoes, but he didn't really like wearing any of them and preferred to go barefoot.  This was OK for inside, but we would have to force him to wear them to the park and playground, and he would always sit down and try to take them off.  Fast forward to this week, and he loves them!  He learned the word "shoe" but pronounces the "s" more like a "z" and also learned that when he wears them we're usually going outside or in the car to go somewhere fun.  Now he'll go and pick up our shoes and bring them to us like "OK, put these on and lets go out and play!"  Sometimes he'll also bring me his shoes and I'll put them on him, then he'll end up going to the front door and will bang on it and say "Out!".  He figures things out pretty quick!

Jacob definitely knows what he wants, but what he wants changes about every 5 minutes!!!  He is practically running now, and will zoom all around the house playing here and there with different toys, but not with anything for too long.  He is keeping us on our toes, for sure!
