Catch that Truck!

This is a routine we go through at least 3 times a day. First, (and I don't have a picture of this) Jett takes his dump truck outside and then pushes it under our porch fence. Then, as is pictured above, he goes to the gate and says "uh oh, guk (truck) out(outside)". Which means we need to go save it from the scary outside world.
Next (and yes this picture is from a different occasion than the first) we go get it. And now Jett is free to be outside, and he knows it. He loves the outside so much, we go on many walks during the day.
Sometimes he makes a side trip up the stairs, now that his truck is safely in his sight.
But after that, the truck just keeps running away, further and further. It is a rascally little dump truck (and a rascally little boy pushing it).
Then it makes it out to the sidewalk and usually up and down the block a few times. In this picture Jett is waving to a garbage truck as it drives by. He loves any vehicle, bikes, motorcycles, cars, buses and trucks. And the louder the better. If he hears a truck in the distance, he looks at it and keeps looking at it from one end of the street until he can't see it anymore. He LOVES trucks.

I can't handle him, Shelley. He is WAY too adorable, and on top of that, he's a little man! I'd say this post is probably your best work yet.

What a cute big boy he is becoming! I love the dump truck. It looks like so much fun. How fun that he is starting to talk more. I can't wait until we can see him and you again.
