Jacob's big day

After a busy day of doing laundry, catching up his Curious George reading, cleaning the kitchen, and learning to use a fork, he was ready for some R&R.

Helping in the garden.

Mouth stuffed full of tomato.

Eating a tomato.

Picking a tomato.

Eating and picking a tomato.

Picking a watermelon.

Jacob loves to be in the garden. It was so funny watching him pick those -green- tomatoes! He'd grab one, take a bite, throw it on the ground, take another, etc., etc. I tried to get him to come help me pick the cherry tomatoes, but he kept insisting on heading back to his own plant. Then he tried to pick some watermelons, but they were a little heavy!

What's in here?

More big shoes

Big shoes to fill

J has been fascinated with shoes and feet ever since he was a little baby. He's always loved to play with shoes, and his feet are still the only part of his body he will reliably point to when asked. Right now he thinks it's HILARIOUS to put on a big person's shoe and try to walk.

A Day at the Pool

I bought this little wading pool for Jacob. He wasn't too sure at first, but once he got in, he saw how fun it was to splash around. He especially liked putting Mom's shoes in and out of the water.

Father's Day at the Zoo

On Father's Day this year, we decided to take Jacob to the Minot Zoo. Dads got in free! Jacob loved it, because he loves all animals, so it was definitely a day well spent.
