On The Go..

Be careful of what you wish for because it might happen, right? Jacob has reached the point of no return, well almost. He has reached the point of not to expect him to be where you left him on the floor when you walk out of the room and come back. After shopping for several hours with his dad earlier in the day, he was all about rolling all over the floor when he got home and had the area to roam. He's not sitting up or crawling yet, but he is definitely building his muscles and his mind to do so. When the balls he wants are out of his reach, he is now trying to roll to them. He doesn't always guess the right direction or know exactly what to do to get there, but he is already setting goals and working toward them.

Jacob has definitely been a happy-go-lucky kid. We were at a number of stores including Great Lakes Crossing and he was just taking it ALL in. He was definitely inquisitive when I would try to feed him. He would watch every person go by on either side of us and wasn't much into actually drinking his bottle. He would want the bottle in, but then lose focus and forget what to do with it. This continued even when there wasn't the distractions. All in all though, he was still smiling all day and really enjoying the father/son outing.

The father/son outing was a great time to bond. It was also used to help Amy study for her three exams, do a 3-page paper and also work on some math homework. Not all of it got done as she is not a superhero, but she does have Sunday and Monday to work on the rest and be ready to get 3 more A's!!! In recognition of her hard work along with the pursuit and acceptance of her internship with her first choice in Royal Oak, Jacob and I thought it would be nice to get her some flowers for doing a great job. We also thought it would be something to add color and give her something to look at and relax her while she is studying. After all, it is getting to be that time of year where everyone is getting cabin fever. The mall showed it and we are starting to feel it some as well.
