Fred and Ramona are getting ready for Jacob’s entry into toddlerhood. Their baby seems to be mastering new skills every day. Yesterday he was trying to pull himself up at the kitchen table. Today he’s pushing a chair around the living room—and walking! He’s not steady on his feet, but Ramona and Fred know that he’ll soon be harder to keep up with.
Jacob is 30 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds. His parents are a little sad that their son is growing up so quickly. He doesn’t look much like a baby anymore. But they are proud of the many things he can do. Jacob points to his body parts. He takes off his shoes and socks. He waves good-bye. He likes to make his parents laugh. He is also learning to test limits and loves to shake his head “no.”
