Friday: Put in 50 hours of work this week. Tooth is getting much better with antibiotics. When I got home we had dinner and then did the dishes. Then I vaccuumed the house. Jacob kept running down to the end of the hall, leaning against our bedroom door and waiting for Daddy to stand next to him. Then they'd run fast down the hall. Then Jacob would go back down to the end and wait for Daddy. He'd look at Daddy for when to take off and they'd go.


Saturday: Jacob started talking at 7:30. We listened to him and got up at 8am. He had breakfast and we went out for donuts and a muffin (for me). We then went over to Jeanne and Leonard's house for a visit. Inside Jacob was facinated with their bird. They bird looked at Jacob and said, "Hi Craig". Craig is their son's name. Jeanne had Rocky (the bird) show Jacob his wings. He puffs his feathers and flaps his wings. Then we went outside. Leonard, Jared, and Jacob went out to see the new baby donkey. I stayed with Jeanne and walked a donkey to one of their round pens. Jacob loved it in the barn with all the animals. He walked over to see the pigs and they snorted. Jacob jumped a little but he loved it. He sat on their 4 wheeler. He picked up a rake and raked some hay with my help. Jacob sat right next to Leonard in their trailer. I went to the car to get him a snack. He sat in the driveway with his bowl of animal crackers. Leonard said, "Lets sit in the back of the truck", Jacob liked that idea and I lifted him up. A kitty jumped up and wanted to eat his crackers. Jacob fed him one and I gave him a couple too. Jacob was getting real tired and it was time for lunch so we headed home. We had a really nice visit. Stopped and got Jacob a happy meal from McDonalds on the way home. He wanted my grilled cheese so I ate him nuggets. He took a overdue nap when we got home. Jared worked on mowing the lawn and I cleaned out the car. It was a sunny day and the hornets were out. I took a little nap. When Jacob woke up Jared brought him to me and he lay on the couch with me. Jared went back outside to finsh mowing the back yard. Jacob wanted to watch. I set the chair by the window and he stood on it and watched Daddy mow. He watch for a while and then we went outside. I drove the tractor with Jacob on my lap and Daddy on top of the hay in the trailer behind us. We fed the horses and then Daddy and Jacob drove around on the tractor. Jacob climbed up into his fort by himself with Mommy behind him. He wanted to go down the curley slide but not by himself. Daddy went down with him severel times. Then he went down the straight slide by himself a few times. Made sloppy joes and fries for dinner. Jacob loved that meal. He was begging for the next bite. We walked around the mall and let Jacob play there. He was running all over the place. A little girl pushed him and he just staired at her. Then Daddy helped him up on the grapes and he layed his head down like he was going to go to sleep. He lay there for a while and patted the grape with his hand, we just laughed.
