A typical Saturday with Jake

Friday night
730pm: I bring Jake to bed after his bottle. On my way up the stairs, I promise to buy him m&m's if he sleeps until 7am. (No, I am not above bribery.)

Saturday
715am: I wake up to Jake gleefully yelling. Bribery=success. Or coincidence. Whatever way you want to look at it.

745am: I make Jake oatmeal with blueberries. Yummy.

755am: Jake throws his spoon and bowl on the floor. Grrrr!!!

8am: Grandma and mommy watch this week's Glee (we are way way behind here!)

9am: We go upstairs to get dressed. (A green t-shirt and brown overalls...sorry, I didn't take pictures today)

930am: We leave for Schinnen (the American Base)

1025am: The first of the tantrums. Jake would prefer to play in the road than go in the store. (Incidentally, I look like the worst mom ever during tantrums because eventually Jake just wants me to pick him up....he used to do that during time-out too.)

1100am: Jake entertains himself in the store by going up and down the stairs.

1130am: Lunch at Burger King! (Jake has chicken nuggets and french fries)

12pm: We go grocery shopping. (Jake is good and eats a cheese string..unfortunately the park is closed due to painting.)

130pm: We drive home. Jake falls asleep.

2pm: Jake goes to Natex (NATO base) with my dad since he's still sleeping in the car after unloading groceries. I put groceries away.

3pm: Jake eats 7 m&m's. (Yes, I follow through on my bribes)

330pm: Jake and I go for a nice long walk.

5pm: We play with puzzles (his favorite).

545pm: Supper time! It's fend for yourself night, so Jake has lasagna. (His favorite)

630pm: Bath time. Oh, an extra tantrum when I try to brush his teeth, he does not appreciate the help!

7pm: Bottle, then bedtime. Yes, I bribed him again on the way to bed.

Have a good day!
