Had a great weekend visiting family down south. Came home Sunday and Jacob only slept 1hr of the trip. When we got home it was ~9pm. After taking care of the animals we went inside and got out our Christmas tree (which belong to Jared's grandparents). Its pretty old and has a smell to it. Also much of it is turning brown. We took care of that by picking up a can of snow spray to cover up the brown. Jared had fun putting it on and it looks pretty good. After getting it set up we put Jacob in bed cause he was really tired. When we woke him up in the morning I carried him from the crib and sat on the couch with him. He usually has a hard time waking up, but not this morning. He opened his eyes and sat up quickly. Then he stuck out his hand saying, "pease, pease, pease". Pointing at the bulbs, lights, and beads, he said, "dat, dat, dat..." When we'd tell him to be gentle he gently pat whatever he was touching. We brought his highchair out in the living room and he ate breakfast by the tree. Jacob stayed with Nana today and Kenzie came home with us to spend the night. She thanked me for letting her spend the night. When we got home Kenzie hid behind me and suprised Uncle Jared. She was so excited she ran up and down our hallway over 100 times. Jacob thought she was funny and ran with her a few times. We watched Rudolph on DVD til it was time for bed. Truman slept in the bedroom with Kenzie. This morning we woke Kenzie up and then Jacob. Jacob got dressed by the tree. Took Kenzie to school and then Jacob to Aunt Missy's before work. Jacob loved Mel's inflatable snowman in their yard. When I picked him up after work all the kids were outside by the snowman. Stopped at meijer to get a few things on the way home. When I got home Jared said he stopped at meijer too - so we got double of a few things. Tonight we watched Charlie Brown Christmas. Jacob got almost every toy out of his toy box and had them all over.
