This morning Jacob liked his adult oatmeal lots. He finished the whole bowl. We drove into town to get Jared some more Sprite and me my cappicino. There was a garage sale down the road from us that I wanted to stop at on the way. I found Jacob a nice pair of water shoes for .25 cents to take with us to Copper Harbor. I drove cause Jared still isn't feeling well but he said he'd ride along with us. I stopped at a garage sale on the way home. I told Jared that they had a nice hard shell Sears roof top carrier that he sould go look at. The guy was asking $20 so we went home, got the truck and went back to get it. It will be nice for our trip to Copper Harbor. I washed it and we put Jacob's stroller and our camp kitchen in it to see how things fit. We still had lots more room. It has much more room than our soft shell carrier. I am so excited for the trip I want to pack already - but I have to wait. Jacob had lunch and took a nap. Today is Bubba's (Jeanne and Leonard's son) graduation party. At the party Jeanne gave Jacob his birthday gift. He got two stuffed horses, a cool John Deer tractor with farm animals, and some socks. He loved horses until he saw the tractor. Then he wanted me to get it out of that box so he could play with it. It was a beautiful day. Jacob played on the little boy Dillin's (6yrs old) race bike. Dillin was pretending that Jacob was in a race and he would pretend he was changing the tires on pit road. He'd go around the car as fast as he could pretending to change all the tires. Jacob loved watching him run around. Mom called me and told me that my Dad was mowing the lawn across the road by their mailbox. He got the riding lawnmower to close to the ditch and the tractor rolled over into it with my Dad on it. She said she was driving home when she saw someone pulling a tractor out of the ditch with their truck. She thought, "How silly to mow their" before she even knew it was Dad. My Dad's had a rough week first with the motorcycle and now this. He's doing just fine though. We thank God he is ok. Got out the finger paint to let Jacob do a little artwork - He needed a little help from Mommy though. Then he rubbed his face with his green hand. He saw Kate go in the corner behind the glider rocker and now he likes to hang out there. I looked back and he was just sitting there in the corner smiling. Daddy got out his toy. Right now he loves anything with a stearing wheel or tires. He loves his stuffed animals too - especially Berry. I got out his plastic mat and he was running around in circles as I sang ring-a-round the rosie then he'd fall down at the end. He also crawled around in a circle as I sang it. Our silly little cutie.
