Puzzles

We've had a great couple days. Jake is finally healthy again, though I'm still leery about giving him milk since the last few times his stomach couldn't handle it. I've decided to seize the opportunity to wean him from his bottle. Hopefully he does well when I introduce milk in his sippy cup. On the plus side, it hasn't affect bedtime at all, on the downside, he's been getting up pretty early in the morning. I don't know if that's a coincidence or not.
Jake went back to daycare on Thursday and Friday, he wasn't the only sick kid, over half of the kids were out. It was a mini epidemic!
Today, we took advantage of a sunny day and went for a nice long walk with my mom. We also went out again after his non-nap to look at the horses and play with a ball.
Oh, and we watched Madagascar 2, and Jake shakes him booty to the song: "I like to move it". It's hilarious. I'll try to catch it on video.
Playing with his puzzle, he's actually pretty good. He finish it alone. He brings the board on the table, then goes back in forth getting one piece at the time from his basket. It's cute and keeps him entertained for a long time.


Watching Dumbo on tv.
I love this outfit, isn't the moose adorable. I also like Jake in the color orange, I think it suits him.

Frustration!

Jake has some new habits, well some are old and are coming back.
He no longer says "more" when he wants food, instead, he stands at the gate and yells and points.
He throws utensils and food on the floor. Constantly.
He's always going for the drawer in the hutch, or going behind the couch to play with the power bar.
But then, he goes up to you and gives you hugs and kisses on the cheek. Or he brings you a book to read. Or he giggles.
He's just a funny bean, sometime he drives me crazy, but I love him lots!
Here are a few pictures from today, we had a quiet day at home.

We went swimming today!

We had playgroup today, and had a field trip at the pool. I debated whether to go or not, but Jake had been symptom free for well over 24 hours.
I wasn't able to take pictures at the pool, I didn't want to get my camera wet, and I had my hands full with Jake.
Jake did ok, he's still very hesitant in the water, and clings onto me alot. We'll be going back, I want him to get used to the water.
We went to McDonald's for lunch with the others. This boy can chow down a chicken nugget happy meal like it's no one's business. He loves the fries too..uh oh!
We played at home this afternoon, then went for a walk with my mom before supper.This is how Jake plays with his farm. He always sits on that chair backwards.


Just about to get his bottle before bed.

Still Sick


Jake is still sick today. He was even sicker than yesterday. It's a rare day I don't have to put gates up since he has no energy.
We spent most of the day on the couch snoozing and watching tv. My mom's friend got us some Pedialyte, and he did drink quite a bit this afternoon.
He was happy to get to bed tonight.
Fingers crossed that my normal baby is back tomorrow!

Sick Day :(

Jake was sick today. He woke up with a stomach bug. I'll spare you the details. Suffice to say, I did a lot of laundry today.
Here he is sleeping on the couch. We actually both had a nice nap on the couch this afternoon.
I hope he feels better tomorrow.

Drool Monkey

Wowza, I still can't believe how much he's drooling! It's nuts.
Jake wasn't too bad last night, he woke up a couple times, but settled on his own pretty quickly.
This morning, he was alright, just very very whiny. He didn't really eat much of breakfast or lunch though.
He was really good at daycare, played, and didn't fuss at all. Isn't it amazing how they are angels for others? LOL.
He fell asleep in the car on the way home, I let him sleep for about 15 minutes on his mat. But he wasn't too pleased when I woke him up. He ate his rice and veggies really well, did not eat any of the ice cream I gave him as a treat! Silly Boy!
Then we had bath, and Jake was in bed at 630pm. It's early for him, but he was ready, and we'll be up early in the morning for daycare/gym anyways.
