Time for a New Pet Yet?

This past weekend we had company! Granny and Grampa were here for a nice visit, and Aunty Sarah was visiting with the 'boys', Oscar and Smokey. While Jacob had a great time chasing them around, and Paul and I remembered how much we love kitties, I'm not so sure we are ready to get one just yet. Jacob doesn't exactly understand the word gentle. I am amazed Oscar stuck around Jacob as much as he did (note the pictures) since Jacob is a bit of a face hitter. It was really great to have the house filled with family. Thanks guys!

Daycare and New Socks!

Yesterday Jacob had his first real day at his first real daycare! Mommy and Daddy were pretty nervous about the whole ordeal, but the daycare worker said that Jacob had a good first day. A few tears, a short nap, and refusing to eat his lunch were the only glitches amongst all of the running around and playing he did. He was the youngest one there, but more active than the 2 18 month old kids. I can't believe how fast Jacob is growing, and how independent he is.

No pictures from daycare, but a few later on in the day, sporting his new red socks. I get such a kick out of this kid!

Apples Apples Everywhere!

One of my most beloved activities to do when September hits is to go apple picking. This year the family was visiting grandmama and grandpapa in Montreal, so we got to experience a new, and very impressive, apple orchard. Jacob enjoyed the wagon ride to the picking fields, but I think he enjoyed the unlimited supply of apples the most. Notice how he always has an apple in his hand. I think he managed to eat, or start, four apples. Needless to say I was thankful that Paul got to his diaper the next morning before I did:)
