Making a funny face.

Cold ice cream

Asking for Jacob's cone.

Not getting it.

At 9am Jacob and I went outside to take care of the animals. Adam was awake when we came back inside. After breakfast Jacob wanted to play with his cash register. He’d say to me, “I want you to pay with me”. He had a bunch of matchbox cars that he wanted me to by. I bought them and paid with the credit card. We watched the last half of Sesame Street. After lunch we went outside. The boys played with the truck and filled it with grass clippings from several piles by the garden. I hoed the garden and put some grass clippings down in rows to help keep the weed down. The boys were covered in grass when we went in at nap time. Adam slept for 3 ½ hours. Jacob rested while playing with his blocks and cars in his bedroom. Then he came out and just wanted me to hold him. We cuddled for a while before going outside to take care of the animals. All the goats were out of their paddock so we walked the fence and temporarily fixed a couple spots. Jacob found some sticks to carry back to the barn. When we feed the goats Jacob always carries some hay also. He puts it in their trough and then we pet Clarence. Jacob loves feeling his horns, ears, and nose. Clarence sniffed Jacob's face and Jacob laughed saying, "he niffed me pace, dat tickles". Kate rolled in poop. I hosed her off and then sprayed some mist on Jacob. He said, "let me do it". He sprayed himself right in the face with the nozzle only a couple inches away. We both laughed. I gave Jacob a haircut outside on the deck. Back inside I got the dishes done and dinner started before Adam woke up. Then I brought the laundry out to the couch to fold. The boys loved running around with the laundry. Jacob held some and spun in a circle to make himself dizzy. Adam tried to copy him and made the same noises Jacob did. After dinner we had ice cream cones. Then I finished folding laundry and putting it away. The boys took a long bath tonight. They had fun playing and splashing together. They each have their own color cups that they play with after I wash and rinse them. They love playing with their cups. We played in Jacob's bedroom until bedtime. Adam was asleep by 9pm. Jacob and I played with the cars together before reading. Lately as we talk about his day he likes to talk about his birthday party at the playground the other day. He names the people that were there, talks about his presents, and says, "I wanna do dat gain, dat was pun". He was asleep shorly after 9:30. Jared called around 9:45 and we got to talk for a while. He comes home tomorrow - yeh!!!!!!
