Jack's five favorite things:
First and foremost is his "animal blanket" that he caries around like Linus from Peanuts, now we can get to the actual list!
1. Lightning McQueen and the Cars movie. He literally has the entire movie memorized and will act out parts of the movie with his car figures and sings the "Real Gone" song out loud all day.
2. Quoting movies - such a guy! Jack is ALWAYS saying "hey mommy, you know what that guy from _____ movie said?" And I have to say "no, what did he say, Jack." And then the movie quote ensues. I don't anticipate him outgrowing this, um ever!
3. Macaroni and Cheese with a twist...he loves me to add mixed vegetables with it. Go Lima beans and carrots, Green beans and peas! Recently we found the Cars noodles and that has been a huge hit - he asks for it for breakfast and can eat an entire bowl in "lightning speed." :)
4. Monster trucks. If he's not watching/playing Cars, then he is busy with Monster trucks. I am keeping my eyes out for a monster truck rally show in Denver to take him to.
5. Music. Jack is very into music and has many "favorite" songs on the radio and from his Disney movies. He has a bucket of instruments that he likes to play with as well.
Main personality traits:
*Sweet. He is SUCH a sweet boy and tells both mom and dad "I love you" multiple times per day. Dare I say that Jack knows he is cute and certainly plays into that with his big blue eyes and mile-long eyelashes. He is a charmer...
*Particular. He likes his toys to be just so and has always been a little bit finicky about his food, bed and general surroundings. He has a dash of stubbornness in him for sure!
*Observant. He is a bit more of a watcher than a doer...that is except when it comes to daredevil tricks like jumping down the stairs and going on water slides. I think he has a slight penchant for adrenalin :)
*Talkative. This kid is verbose. He is ALWAYS talking and is very verbally advanced for his age. Whether he is quoting movies or singing songs, he is constantly saying something!
*Focused. When he is doing something he is generally very intense about it. Lips are pursed and he is not to be disturbed. He has a very impressive attention span for a three year old, which I think will suit him well in life.
Jack is an equally special little boy and relishes somewhat in his role as the baby of the family for now. We often say that he should be an actor because of his looks and charm and love of being in front of the camera.
