Baby do

Jude has entered the independent phase of toddlerhood. Everything is "baby do" (yes, he still refers to himself as baby) he has also entered a whole different level of busy. He is SO curious about anything and everything going on around him. He wants to do anything we are doing and totally unassisted. "baby do!"

We had an amazing weekend. We went to snowbird and had so much fun there. It is so beautiful and we love checking it out. 

Then we went camping. We went with the mindset that if Jude hates we'll pack up and head home. He loved it. He was so busy checking everything out. He was head to toe filthy with in 15 minutes of getting out of the car. He loved eating food from the fire and went straight to sleep when we put him down. He did amazing and we can't wait to do it again. 

(this was seriously about 20 minutes after we arrived)

We headed down to Midway to get some breakfast. YUM!

Then we decided last minute since we were so close to head to Park City for a quick walk through. 

Jude is so into the real Chant right now. He wants to watch it over and over. This is him watching it on the iPad while I take advantage to the free time to get ready in the morning.

We had a great 24th. We kinda pooped out on the 4th so we wanted to make up for it a little bit. Marc bought some fireworks and we thought for sure Jude would get bored pretty quick but he didn't. He was GLUED to every last firework and asked for more when we were done. He was so cute. We started with the snakes and he kept trying to blow the fire out.

We put the pops/snaps things on the ground and let him stomp on them. After each pop he would go "OHHHHHH" with that funny face letting us know he most definitely approved. 

(Is there anything on my face? Good, that would be so embarrassing.)

I also want to make a quick note that Jude got his first bee sting this week. It wasn't even from him picking up a bee or messing with one. He stepped on one in the backyard. Cried real hard then we picked up the dead bee and told it "no no bee" several times and he seemed to be fine after talking to the bee. Now every bee he makes sure to tell "no no bee" but still tries to pick it up.
