we haven’t caught it on video yet, but Jordan now loves to say “Happy New near.” Living with Jordan is like living with a parrot; he repeats EVERYTHING back. And when he wakes up in the morning he practices all of his new words.

The best part about 2013 is that Jordan is giving out out lots of love, hugs and kisses now, which he never did before. He even sometimes says “I Luh-moo (I love you) without being prompted. He says “hold you” when he wants us to pick him up and hold him. It’s all so sweet and fun to watch.

Here is a photo a forgot to include in my last post from our Christmas time excursion to the Grove:

Here is a picture from Tammy’s excursion to the Auto museum with Cyndi and Jaxon. I met up with them for lunch because it’s a few blocks from my office

Here is some video of Jordan, practicing stairs and falling a lot, but getting up over and over to try again

He rarely crawls anymore.

He seems to have a thing for shoes… specifically, high heeled shoes. Very interesting:

We had a GREAT new years eve in Laguna Beach. Here is the view from the balcony of the awesome beach house where we stayed:

Here’s Jordan with his #1 girlfriend:

And then a beautiful lunch on New Years Day over looking the Ocean. Jordan’s favorite toys are in play here and always (obsessed):

When we got home we decided to give him a faux hawk:

He decided he liked it:

Jordan and all of us are really looking forward to our trip to Chicago next week!
