Pajama Playdate?

Yesterday Mommy watched Emma and Landon early in the morning... this meant pajama playdate for Taryn. The kids had lots of fun.

Jake enjoyed watching them from his jumper!

Jake Eats Cheerios!

Jake has started eating broken up pieces of Cheerios and he LOVES them!!!

As you can see from this first picture he was also enjoying his prunes... just like his sister always did. What weird kids.

Photography Lessons :)

Aunt Angela came over and Taryn had fun learning to take pictures with her.

Mommy Can't Resist These Faces!!

Yesterday Mommy couldn't resist taking a MILLION pictures of us. I only posted a small portion of what she took if you can believe that! A few from the playground
Jake loves the swings!

And now Taryn can swing on the big girl swing... in a few ways :)

Gotta love her hair!

Yesterday she finally figured out how to climb up this part... and she practiced for a long time to get it right!

On the way to the car she had fun picking the flowers and looking at the water

And home

More of Jake Swimming

Here are some pictures Barry's mom, Melissa took of Jake at swim lessons.
A few of Jake with his teacher... He is great at going underwater!

And a few with Mommy. He does a lot of practicing holding on to the side of the pool, climbing out, kicking his feet and floating on his back. He is going to be a great swimmer!

Busy Friday- MY GYM, Library, Glue... and more

This morning Jake had his first My Gym class. He of course loved it! His friend Michael joined him to try out the class and Mommy said they were very cute together. Here is Jake in his jumper.

I think Michael might be thinking...hey do you think this is safe?

Jake: Hey Michael what about these swings you think these are safe too?

And a video of Jake enjoying his jumper.

After Jake's class Mommy took them to the library to see Kurt Gallagher, the guy who played at Taryn's birthday party. They were all very excited to see that Anne and Isabella were there too! Anne actually held Jake the whole time and Mommy sat on the floor with the girls. It was very crowded... I guess everyone has heard how great he is! All the kids certainly enjoyed it... especially Jake :) Daddy... Mommy took this video for you! She claims you really liked this song about the Rocket to Chocolate.

At home Taryn has been really into crafts. So today she played a lot with glue. She did a really great job. Mommy didn't help her at all.

While Mommy made dinner Taryn helped me look for that pesky cat that has been harassing me...walking just outside the invisible fence boundary. Taryn found it... but I still couldn't get over there to get it. Like I said.... BUSY FRIDAY!!!!!

Jake's First Playdate

Jake goes to a lot of playdates, but for the most part he watches Taryn play with her friends. Today Jake had his first real playdate with his friends. After their library class Jake, Micheal, and Barry went to Downing park to "play on the swings." It is hard to see in the picture... but Jake and Barry may have some issues soon. Jake is wearing his Yankee Hat and Barry has on his Red Sox hat. Uh oh! :) Anyway they had a great time and it is fun that they are all so close in age. Afterward Jake was tired and wanted to chill on the couch with a bottle.

Then Taryn decided to join him.
