Less And Less Is Safe!

Less and less around the house is safe from little hands... Over the weekend, I was in the kitchen either cleaning or cooking something when Amy put Jacob on the floor behind me sitting up. Without hearing a thump or anything, Amy came back a few seconds later and I turned around to find Jacob in a puddle of water hanging onto Frankie's water dish. Jacob had a look of bewilderment, but true to being a boy, the fact that his onesie and pants were sopping wet didn't phase him. Fortunately, he didn't continue to the next bowl to enjoy a "Frankie" appetizer. Guess his mother will just need to keep him in the living room to buy some time until he reaches the dog dishes, at least for now...

Jacob is spinning on his belly much less these days. He has found that he can travel on his stomach while moving his arms and legs similar to a snake. Most of his movement is in his arms. I found out over the weekend that I pretty much crawled with my belly on the floor. So, we will see if Jacob continues getting better at what he is doing now (which he is), or if he will spring into action with his belly off of the floor.

Determination is definitely a trait that Jacob possesses. Once he sees something that he wants, there is nothing stopping him until he gets it. I'm sure this is the same for all "new movers", so we will see how this progresses with time...
