Happy Easter!

Play dough was the big hit from the Easter Bunny. Jacob also got a little basket ball hoop, plastic golf clubs, some books, a bunny, and a few other little toys. Thanks, Bunny!


Some "bunny" sprinkled Easter grass all over the living room... hmm... who could it be?!

Egg Hunt

Jacob went to his first Easter Egg Hunt at Grace Church Saturday morning.
He found 14 eggs with the help of his cousin!

4-wheeler

"Finally, I have a set of wheels with a motor, thanks to my cousins!"
"Now if I could just drive over this snowbank like my Dada does with his truck..."
"Help!  I'm stuck!"

That devilish grin makes me think he is up to something more than just having a sip of water!
Backpack packed and ready to go... somewhere!
Does it get any cuter?!

Spring!

 Spring appears to have finally arrived to Mendon!  What a great way to start out our week of vacation.  Saturday was in the 50's and it's supposed to be even warmer all week.  YEAH!

 After a hard work out at gymnastics, Jacob can't even make it to his bed for a nap!

Jacob got going a little too fast running down hill and landed on his belly in the muddiest part of the driveway.
The slide has been moved from the living room to the deck.

New accomplishments...

Two new accomplishments became apparent yesterday.  They may seem minor, but were a big deal to me! 

First, Jacob loves all types of vehicles and names many of them.  He's been calling a bus a "buh" for quite some time, very typical for his age.  So of course we've been practicing /s/, along with other sounds, and I always stress it on the end of bus.  Yesterday he started saying it with the /s/ on the end!  YEAH!

Second, he's been trying for a couple of days to get up from his knees on the floor by stepping onto one foot only, without using his hands to push himself up or to balance.  This takes some strength, since he weighs 32 pounds, and balance.  Last night he did it and was so proud of himself.  He kept practicing over and over.  So cute!

Obviously it doesn't take much to impress his extremely proud parents!  LOL
