Stowe

We decided to use a bit of our tax refund from this year and take Jakob to Stowe for an overnight.  We couldn't have ended up with a better April day...70, breezy, and partly sunny.  We took a four mile stroll along the bike path --complete with a nap for Jakob-- stopped in at one of our old favorite pubs for a beer, had a great Mexican dinner, and spent a lot of time playing in the huge jacuzzi tub in our room.

Now this is a serious big boy bed!
Is this a tub or a little pool?
I can't wait to get into my suit later tonight
It's amazing I didn't turn the water on while I was in here
Time to stroll
And time to nap
I'm having a snack at Mr. Pickwick's Pub
Check out the cool town hall
I'll have a couple of tacos, some rice, and a bottle 
I'm never too full to say no to kisses from Daddy
Okay, it's time to get in this tub
YAAAAAY!
We gotta get one of these!

First Poop on the Potty!

I apologize that this whole post will qualify as TMI (and sorry, future Jakob, for the embarrassment it'll inevitably cause), but this is a big day in our house.  After I left for work today, Jakob went poop in his potty for the first time!  Dan noticed him straining and asked if he wanted to sit on the potty.  For the first time, Jakob said "uh huh," let Dan undress him, and sat on his potty until he was "all done."  He tried to flush it down about 10 times and was rather confused that it stayed in place, as opposed to what he sees the normal potty do, but he was VERY proud of himself nevertheless.  He said "Jakey did it" the whole way to daycare, and he even tried to go again when we got home.   We certainly don't expect this to be the new normal in our house, but we're very excited and proud of the little guy anyway.  Way to go Jakob on this big (although little, as you can see in the picture) milestone! A tiny deposit, but a big dea...

Playtime!

Jakob is loving his bouncer!  He's hilarious to watch when he's in it, because he gets such a serious look on his face when he's playing, and he refuses to straighten out his legs and instead just dangles in the seat. Tomorrow we've got his four month doctor's appointment.  I'm certain they're going to say he's healthy and doing a great job growing and developing, but like last time, I'm so nervous for his shots.  Keep your fingers crossed that he doesn't have any adverse reactions! Having all this fun is serious business Mom, please don't bother me.  Can't you see I've got playing to do?! So intriguing! Reading with Daddy is fun too. This Doctor Seuss guy is a wacko, but I like his style!
