Sort of! :) They're sure having fun, anyway. Sorry it's not a very good picture.

Why must they change things?!

Any other bloggers notice the changes made to blogger for editing your blog? I had to get a new background and now I can't find where to change my font colors?! Good grief. Just leave things the same! :)

The Answer

I just realized that I never did answer whose hair it was! :) She got a LOT cut off, but it's still plenty long. She loves it.

Silly Boy!!

Then he started pulling his pillow case over his head-pillow & all!! He's not asleep here. I wish! He finally cocooned himself in his new blanket & went to sleep.

How on Earth?!

This boy got his shirt so twisted, I have no idea!! He was wound for sound at bedtime (late nap) & after a long time he said his arm hurt. I told him to lay still but he kept whining & kind of crying so I told him to come here & this is how I found his shirt!! It was so tight & twisted I thought I was going to have to cut it off him!! I finally got...whew! Then he was being silly...next post!

He's a Smart One!

Jacob has speech therapy twice a month this summer. I think I've mentioned before that he *loves* his teacher (she comes to the house). Every time, he tries to go home with her. I guess he figured that wasn't going to work so he tried something different today. She stays for about an hour & they basically play. She brings a big bag full of fun books, puzzles, and toys. Today when time was up, she tried to pick up the toys. But Jacob knew that meant she was leaving! So he started hiding the toys in his shirt...and told her he was hiding them. Well, he could only fit so many in there. I picked him up & they all fell out. Since that tactic wasn't working, he ran to the front door & locked it!! Then he stood guard. She asked him how she was going to leave. His answer? "Stay he-uh an' pway!" He was not the least bit happy when that didn't work either!! He stood at the door & cried for a few minutes and then he was just plain mad. But the Monster Trucks video distracted him & now he and Anna are playing in their room. That boy is a riot & you can just see the wheels turning in his head!

Big Brother in Training

Anna is giving Jacob lessons in baby care tonight. They've got several dolls out, along with several accessories, and she's instructing him on what he needs to do.
"Come with me Jakey, I'll show you where the bottles are."
"Okay, now feed the baby"
"Is it all gone? Lay down with your baby now."
And on and on!
It's entertaining. And a little scary how much she knows! Maybe she shouldn't go to kindergarten after all!! :)

The Things He Says

Jacob's speech is improving by leaps & bounds. At supper tonight, trying to get him to take a bite he replies "no way ho-hey!" (Translation-no way Joses) No one kept a straight face on that one!!!!

Papa's here!

I think I've heard "Papa play with me!" about a hundred times this afternoon. Papa is on his way from the farm to Jamie's & the kids are taking full advantage of the time he's here!

It's a.......

BOY!!!!!!! Aaron was right! That's his foot clear up next to his face & his hand. I could see right away, so there's no doubt it's a boy! Anna is very excited, even though she said she wanted a sister :)
