How old is he?

I need to take a moment to write about Jakob. For those of you who haven't met him yet, or seen him in a while, let me tell you a little bit about his development.

He started out walking at 10 months and now as a 14 month old, he's an old pro.
He's moved on to running, dancing, spinning, jumping, and climbing stairs....and doing it really well. We have a little slide in the house that has 2 steps on it, and he can navigate it so well.
He climbs up, sits down, slides down, and runs around to do it again.
He can even turn himself around on the top of it, and climb up the slide part too!

In the verbal realm he is amazing! He says tons of tons of words, and can parrot just about anything.
And he sings - YES he does.
His favorite is BA BA BLack Sheep,
but he also likes Ring o Ring of Roses, and Twinkle Twinkle.

And, TA DA...he can count. Only to two, but come on, you have to admit that is remarkable!
I discovered this the other day when I was counting steps with him and after I said one, he said TWO! Okay, so it sounded more like DO, but all the same it was a clear count.

I have attached a little video for your viewing pleasure.
Enjoy the baby!
