And the Screaming Continues


Jake and I had a great day together! I found a park within walking distance to our place. It's nice because I can walk and get my workout and Jake can swing and have fun! We met a little boy named Judah who was 18 months. Judah looked a lot like William. He had curly blond hair, super blue eyes, and was saying the most adorable things. I think at one point he said "Peace be with you" to me. (Side note: we must find a church around here if an 18 month old already knows peace and what church is!) He swung next to Jake the entire time we were there. Jake watched his every move and listened intently at his babbling. The mom and dad were from Bloomington, IN and they were in town visiting their parents who live in Wheaton, IL. It was nice to talk with someone who understands how hard it is to be away from family, especially as our little ones grow. We talked about the numerous nights of Skype and how you can never get home enough to see them. I'm sure glad some of that will end come next summer!!

Jake spent the rest of the day screaming. Screaming at Addy, screaming at his zoo friends, screaming in the tub, even screaming at the TV. I think by the end he was losing his voice with Daddy.

He took a bath in the big tub for the first time tonight. He did really good and spun around a lot since he figured he wasn't trapped in the baby tub. Most of the time was spent screaming at Addy, of course.
