Back to Being Mommy & Daddy

We made it back from our trip and had a blast! It was fun to be just a married couple for a week, but we sure missed Jake!

Grandma "D" did an awesome job watching Jake. She took lots of pictures and videos that I'm hoping to snag so you can see. It's amazing how much bigger Jake got in just six days! He's really trying to crawl and he's doing lots of rocking on his knees and arms. Changing his clothes or diaper is quite the challenge now!

Grandma "D" and I notice that Jake goes for all his purple toys. I'm hoping that won't be his favorite color, but it is strange how in a bucket of shapes he'll always pick the purple one first. He loves his purple elephant and he just got a new zoo set that has a purple monkey that he is always grabbing at!

Jake officially started to eat lunch now, eliminating one of his afternoon bottles. He's doing really well with lunch and seems to want more, but I usually just give him a little bottle afterward. Food and diapers are going quicker and quicker as he gets bigger! Scary!

Today we took our walk early before the humidity took over. Jake was a little off schedule today since he thought waking up at 5:30 seemed like a good idea. We've been playing with his new zoo set that Grandma "D" bought for him and his mirror! Reading books with him is so cute now that he flips the pages when we're through with a page. Touch and feel books are still his top choice!

Once Daddy got home we all took a nap together and then made dinner. Our day ended with a nice walk around the block!
