A regular day at the Jorgensen house

So, when i have the time I will try to share the funny thoughts of a two year old. Jaeden has been potty trained since February, but just the past 1-2 weeks, he holds it until the absolute last minute usually resulting in slightly damp underwear. We typically know when he needs to go and have to persuade him to stop to use the bathroom. I use to think it was because he just didn't want to stop playing, but today I realized he never wants to leave the room because he's afraid someone aka jayce will take the toy he's playing with. Tonight Jaeden was playing with a new circus train set, jayce was in bed sleeping and we were eating dinner. Jaeden was still afraid someone was going to take his train he if left to go potty. A short while later Jaeden needed some help with a toy, and the lazy parents we are, we tried to encourage him to bring it to the table for help. Instead he told me 'don't worry, no one will take your food, i'll make sure' He always knows just what to say!!

Today was aunt mandy's birthday and jayce's 14 month birthday. He wished her happy birthday this morning in his single word language "ahnhnhn" It's amazing how different each child is. Jaeden was still not walking at this age, and jayce is running. Joel was chasing him tonight (one of jayce's favorite games), and jayce almost knocked me down while I was walking down the hall. It's amazing how fast he runs, although i know it's in the genes.
Of course, Jaeden was saying and signing over 50 words at this age, and the only two words jayce says regularly are 'mama' and 'amen' he has said a handful of other words, but only on rare occasions. Just over the past 2-3 days, Jayce has started to fold his arms for prayer. If you tell him it's time to pray he will stop and hold his arms. He then anticipates when to say amen, so it usually comes a little earlier.

On the subject of church, Sunday during sacrament meeting I was sitting between jaeden and joel. During one of the prayers, i hear jaeden whispering, "daddy close your eyes, daddy close your eyes" I had to nudge joel so he could pray correctly. Jaeden obviously knows the rules, we just wish he would chose to follow them more often.

Once we obtain some recent pics off my parent's camera, I will have more interesting things to share. The first week or two of blogs will not be chronological. I want to try and go back a blog some recent happenings.
