Giggle Factory

Jude is such a giggle factory. Is it possible to have one of the happiest babies on the face of the planet? Is there a competition for such a baby? If so then I think we would have a chance at the title with Jude. Other than when he is hungry, tired, or needs a diaper changed Jude is pretty darn happy! As a 10 month old (almost 11 months) he is free-standing and trying to take steps. When I say trying I mean you can see it on his face that he really wants to take those first steps on his own. Naturally, he gets a ton of encouragement from mommy and daddy. Lately, he has had the chance to spend a lot of time with his grandparents. Jude loves his Grammy and Grandpy Langston. We were able to go up to see them on the 4th of July. Jude's first Indepenendence Day! He also got to see his Great Grandma Langston! Jude has a very extensive vocabulary. He goes from ga-ga to pootabeta and from ba-ba-ba-ba to mamamama with the greatest of ease. The trick to get Jude talking is to take his pacifier out. I know it sounds like a breakthrough in child rearing, but somehow we were able to figure it out. We are enjoying every second we get to spend with Jude. There isn't a moment that goes by that we don't see or hear glimpses of something new happening with Jude's development. The best part is we get to share these experiences with others. He is a great kid. We love him with all of our heart. And we know everyone else does, too.
