Jacob Playing

Here are a couple videos combined of Jacob playing and pulling himself up on furniture. It's so hard to get video of him playing, because he gets so distracted by the camera. Enjoy :)

LOOK AT ME!

Jacob is now standing in his crib! He is so proud of himself as we are to. He almost always greets me now standing up with a big smile when I walk in there. It's pretty cute, but at the same time makes going to sleep a little bit more of a challenge. He now likes to stand up and protest taking a nap, but usually gives in after a few minutes.

The entertainment center that grows with your baby!

I have noticed ever since Jacob has had some sort of mobility our T.V. entertainment center has played a big role in his curiosity. First he started out with just rolling over to it and playing with the handle which he then quickly learned he could pull the drawer in and out. After that he learned he could get himself into a sitting position once he was there. That way he could see what was in the drawer and get his little hands on those objects. Lately he has learned to get up onto his knees, get a hold of the top drawer pull it out a bit and then bring himself to his feet. This way he can get into all sorts of stuff in that top drawer. We actually took everything out of it and filled it with some of his toys, because he was getting into it so much. The last few days has realized he can know reach the very top, but cannot see anything so we don't have to move stuff from up there yet...just a matter of time! He is pulling himself up on everything, the couch, doors, his walker toy, and us. He seems very eager to get moving and is getting frustrated when he cannot get something he has his eye on. If you hold his hands for him he loves to walk all around the house.

Waiting for Moe

Whenever I leave Moe outside he will just stand at the door and stare at Jacob and I with an oh so sad face. Jacob usually tends to notice at some point and always goes over and sits at the door or tries to climb up it, pretty cute!

Scary Spider

I bought Jacob this large cube that has and activity on each side of it. One side has pop goes the weasel, another Old Mac Donald, If your happy and you know it, and several others. As you can see in the picture one of the activities is the itsy bitsy spider. You can pull the spider out and it vibrates back into it's hole as you sing the song. Jacob loves the song, but as soon as he see's this spider he gets very upset. His face scrunches up and he starts crying. We don't understand it all, the things that go through their heads. We try to avoid contact with that side of the cube as much as possible. :)

Big Boy Bath tub

Since Jacob was getting so fearless in his infant bath tub and honestly a little big we moved him to the big boy bath tub. He still seems to really enjoy his nightly bath, this just helps keep his bottom on the ground!

Play date with Jessica!

I don't know if you all remember Jessica??? I baby sat her when I was 5 months pregnant with Jacob. She was 2 months old at the time. We had a much needed play date with Barbara (My friend) and Jessica. It was so fun to see how much she has grown and blossomed since the last time I saw her. She has such a great personality. Jacob and her played very well together. She kept giving Jacob kisses, it was the cutest thing ever!
