The Beefmaster Reigns

Some days are not so busy for Jack, but today was not one of them. First, he had his class at the library. He absolutely loved it, and Mommy was absolutely ecstatic!
Jack wasn't sitting in the back with Mommy. No sir. He was front and center for stories, and all over the classroom for songs.

After an early nap, Jack had his 18 month check-up. He did a spectacular job at the doctor's office. He was completely healthy (including his ears), and he took his shots like a champ. Short history: Most of Jack's life he has been called "Beefy." It was never meant to be a mean nickname. It is just a cute way to refer to the rolls. At 18 months, some of the rolls are still there. And, his weigh-in was proof that the nickname still fits: 31 pounds, 2 ounces. Let's just say that Jack is in the 95th percentile for weight. He got his larger skull from Daddy: 95th percentile for head circumference. His height is average: 50th percentile (Leslie, Sam really is taller). But he is in the 100th percentile for both love and cuteness!
