Building, Trains, and Cooking

We have been having TONS of fun lately! Jacob has always been a builder/creator, but has been getting into his blocks a lot lately and loves to build "sidewalks" and he's newly obsessed with my glue sticks. 
Our neighbors were getting rid of their train set and totally gave it to us, woo hoo! Jacob plays with it every. single. day. All day long. No joke.

Ian is sitting up really well now! He loves it! When he flips down to go on his tummy, he pivots his gut, and twirls around looking for fun things to suck on, or he'll follow Jacob around the room. We recorded it on the camcorder the other day. So funny!!


Jacob's "sidewalk", complete with glue sticks. 

Every night Jacob takes his socks off and puts them on his hands... they are his homemade "hand puppets".

Jacob and Dad setting up the tracks. It was so fun to see the little kid in Jon come out when putting these together. Jon started with all these ideas, and went to look online for more tracks.

Jacob watching the train go around and around... seriously, this lasted for over an hour the first day, he just sat.

Ian loved the tracks tons as well! Jacob would flip out every time the train got close to Ian... because you know... Ian is so mobile and everything, he might wreck it. :)

Love those chunky fingers!

Lately Jacob has been helping me in the kitchen every day. One morning I was making oatmeal and Jacob told me, "read recipes?" so I put him up on the counter as he continued to tell me, "Mom, need one cup water." Kid after my own heart.
