Jake is such an engineer....

Jake has figured out how to open up the baby gate to get into the kitchen. Somehow, he figured out that if pushes on the mesh part of the gate with a lot of force, a couple of feet away from the door, it dislodges the hinge on the bottom and then he knows how to open the hinge on the top. Just crazy! We've clearly never done that so I don't know how he figured it out...but I do think its genius! Such an engineer..... We will try to get a video of that... He is still saying hi and bye-bye alot...especially at the grocery store. He also recently learned to say "car" and "potty", although it sounds more like, "pie". He can point to my nose and mouth when I ask him to, but is still learning his own. When we ask him if wants to take a bath, he runs to the bathroom and bangs on the door, ready for his bath! Also, when I tell him that we need to go change his diaper, he runs to his bedroom door and waits for me to open it. He has really picked up associations and what things mean. He has 4 teeth on the top now and 3 on the bottom. His hair is getting really cute and curly in the back. The snow was fun but we are SOOO ready for some warmer weather. Jake just wants to go outside and play and most days it is just too cold and windy to go out for a good amount of time. So, he gets antsy...understandably. Spring could not come any sooner!!

Playdate at the Library with friends

We had a blast with our friends at the local library for storytime. They had singing, a story, a parachute, and muscial instruments and blocks. Jake had a hard time staying seated for the story..he just wanted to walk around and explore everything and and say hi to his new friends.

SNOW!!! So far 6 inches!
