Zacky Boy

I never imagined that I would call Zack, Zacky, but we do.  Abby started it (likely from daycare) and we just adopted it.  I feel like I have written so much about Abby.  She talks more and her shennigans are a bit more overt and easier to write about these days.   So for now a focus on my Zacky Boy.

Zack is starting to say so much more and express his wishes (and demands).  I love to ask him questions and see how much he understands.  He doesn't always have the words to respond but if you ask him a yes or no he will nod and say, "yea" or shake and say, "uh-uh".  Seriously, we could do it all day.  It is so cute.

crazy sunblocked hair and devilish smile!

Zack loves his sister and is always aware of where "Abba" is.  He loves to wake her up and climb all over her and she loves it too.  I prefer she stay asleep as long as possible, however.

 

He is such a nature boy  and "go, go, go" is still a favorite.  He is so happy outside and loves to go on walks, play on the slides and ANYTHING that is outside or on the move.  I rolled the windows down for the kids the other day and they were giddy with excitement to have the wind in their faces!

 Our little fish is growing increasingly fond of the water and can just swim around with his floatie for as long as we will let him.  Today we played in the ocean and he was loving being tossed around in the waves and going in and out with the tide.

 Daddy, daddy, daddy!!!  He loves his daddy!  And really, who wouldn't!

 My baby, is getting so big!  He is 17 months, now and getting bigger by the minute!

 A big fan of utensils but not quite so skilled yet!  This session got a little out of hand.  Note to self (and daddy)... he isn't quite ready for a whole yogurt on his own.  Good effort though...

I wish I could just stop time and remember each cuddle and nuzzle in my neck as I put him down for a nap or get him up from a slumber.  I wish I could capture every second he snuggles up in our laps to read books and embraces his sister with delighted squeals.  He is my baby but continues to grow into a big boy.
