It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

 Jacobi was confined to his exersaucer while mommy
put lights & decorations on the tree

 Jacobi loves lights and he loves to point at them

 "oooooh"

My handsome boys!

Jacobi's First Thanksgiving

We were blessed this Thanksgiving to be able to enjoy a 

delicious meal with the Molstre & Carlson families.

Jacobi's latest tricks

As of the last week or so Jacobi has picked up on some sign language.

He signs "more", "all done" and "drink".

Besides the sign language he is quick to show you
where his mouth and tongue are.

He will come at you with a similar face for a kiss so watch out;)

A Perfect 10!

Daddy & Jacobi were helping mommy fold the laundry...

until Jacobi decided he wanted mommy's camera...

 so, he implemented his gymnastic skills...

 and stuck the landing! :)

Books!

Jacobi loves books!

He enjoys being read to and he definitely has his favorites...he also lets us know when he is done with one and wants to move onto another.

As you will see below, Jacobi enjoys getting up close and personal with his books by putting his face really close, sitting on them or even trying to take a nap on them;)

You will have to excuse the runny nose in some of the pictures...we were fighting a pretty bad cold when some of these were taken.

A list of Jacobi's (current) favorite books:

Good Night, Gorilla by Peggy Rathmann

Little Quack's ABC's by Lauren Thompson

Let's Look & First Words by Baby Einstein

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr

Waiting Patiently...

...for his next bite of chili!

Fall Cleaning...

November 5th was an unseasonably warm day.  

We enjoyed spending as much time outside as we could.  

While daddy cleaned out the the cars, Jacobi was entertained by "sweeping";)
