Jacob Takes The Wheel

It didn't take long for Jacob to grab onto that wheel and start going. He has an instinct for driving and knowing what vehicles are. Jacob hopped up and onto Uncle Rob's new tractor (lawnmower). Since Jacob didn't seem to have a fear of this machine that he had never seen before, it was time to fire it up and go for a spin. He was all business and didn't show his excitement. We figured he must have really liked it because he was aaaahhhhing to the engine and bumps and one point and was overpleased about needing to get off, but that quickly subsided.
Jacob tried showing Chloe who was boss between them. Jacob kept reeling in her leash and sometimes giving it a good tug. They became much closer friends as Chloe was chasing (following) Jacob all around the dining and living rooms. Jacob kept checking over his shoulder to see if she was still on his heels. Chloe will probably really be looking for Jacob for a while after this trip. We hear that she kept watching the door and looking around for him after the last visit and he was much more fun this time... ;)!
Back to the Jacob knowing vehicles. Chloe has/had some stuffed NASCAR dog toys. Jacob went right for them and immediately start pushing them around the floor. Of course since a couple of them were Gordon and Johnson he started crashing those right away. Let's hope this is a prelude to what is going to happen in California this weekend. Looks like he knows who his mommy and daddy aren't rooting for :D!
