Spring Time Update

So if you haven't already heard...Jacob is going to be a big brother in July! We are excited about the new bundle of diapers, sleepless nights and toothless grins. We are trying to tell Jacob a little bit about what his brother is going to be like. Last night we were talking about the baby and how it was in my tummy. Jacob replied "Baby Hatch" as in, the baby is going hatch out of your stomach mom? It gave me a good laugh. Then he started say the baby was going to hatch out of his tummy and was trying to stick out his tummy. It was quite cute.



And just now David went to go the bathroom and Jacob of course followed him in. Jacob told David "Go on the potty get sticker and chocolate Dad." It was just hilarious because that is what we have been telling Jacob everytime it looks like he has to go the bathroom and now he was telling David the same thing.


Spring has sprung around these parts. The daffodil bulbs that Jacob and I planted last fall have come up. The trick is getting Jacob to understand they aren't weeds and that he needs to be gentle with them :) He is enjoying being able to get outside and dig for worms again. David and I are trying to get as much done in the yard as we can before the trees get leaves again. We have a large wooded area in our front yard that we are trying to tame. The former owners used the area as a compost pile for all their yard work and there are lots of little saplings that don't get enough sunlight that need to come down too.
