As pretty much everyone knows, Jack is a man of few words. Where most kids his age are talking up a storm he prefers to be pretty quiet. He hears just fine and he has excellent comprehension, he just doesn't feel like speaking especially when he can just do things himself. It's amazing that he's kept quiet this long out of sheer stubbornness - after all, we've heard him speak, he just chooses not to. But we feel like we finally had a breakthrough! Over the last few weeks new words have been coming out of his mouth, and John's even gotten him saying "please." Hooray! Of course, Jack's not going to make things too easy for us. Just when we're making progress on something that's been bugging us for over a year, the munchkin throws a new wrench in our plans. He's decided that he no longer likes wearing a diaper. Needless to say it's been a long week for us, and I'm starting to get tired of cleaning up all his little messes. Hopefully we'll make it through this 'bump' quickly and in one piece!
