It seems that in the last few weeks Jacob has come up with all kinds of new tricks. I am sure it has something to do with exploring his world. Most of them are pretty harmless (and even cute) like insisting on turning books right side up before he "reads" them, banging a whisk on a bowl for several minutes at a time, bouncing up and down when he hears a beat he likes, and taking several steps on his own (video to come when I have Dad around to help me film...finals!). However, his recent explorations with food have proven to be a bit more messy. It started with him wanting to have his own spoon. He would hold it in his left hand and continue to grab the food and put it in his mouth with his right hand. It was pretty funny. It seems that in the last few days he has noticed that the big people not only have silverware, but also a bowl! I keep telling myself that soon he will realize that the big people leave their bowl on the table and eat their food rather than wear it! Until then, BOTTOMS UP!
As a side note, you might be seeing the cheesy grin he is displaying in the bottom picture quite a bit now. Since he saw one of his older friends say cheese and smile at the camera, he seems to have decided that this is the perfect face for photo-ops. The face comes along with a sound that I think is his attempt at 'cheese'. He clenches his teeth and blows air out of his mouth. Try it... sounds sort of like cheese. (Hey, you've got to give him credit for creativity:))
p.s. sorry for the sideways picture. I can't figure out how to rotate it. Please let me know if you know how.

Tiff - I love your blog! I saw some photos of our camping trip to goblin valley the other day - good times! love ya - Em.
Tiff,
Was it Parker who taught him the smile? Awesome!
P.S. Go to the photo saved on your computer, open it into Windows viewer, and then press the the little green mountain with the arrow to flip. It should flip it, then you need to repost the pic.
Those are great shots!! I can't wait to see Jacob in Jan. Yeah, so there's no way to flip it within the blog realm as far as I've found. You have to flip it in mypictures and then repost. Hope finals end soon! Happy holidays!
Wow! He really does know how to eat! Kierscha is quite mellow compared to him. I gotta quit complainin about her messes. It's hard to let them explore when it means having to clean up for me.
Tiffy Lou! I noticed you posted on my blog and so I thought I'd return the favor. Your little Jacob is adorable! I can't believe he's already one...time flies, doesn't it? Well, it looks like you're doing great in CA. I hope finals go well for Joey...have a great holiday season!

Way to go for letting the little guy 'explore.' Don't worry, when slober-covered food goobers fall on the carpet, just say to yourself, "It's a rental!":)
Tiff, again, too cute. To rotate: before you upload the photo from the computer to the blog, rotate it there in the file (if moving straight from camera to blog... uhhh I guess you'd have to save it first to the computer). Then it's the arrow curving left or right as you're viewing the pic (depending which way it needs to flip). You probably have it already figured out by now, but anyway... There's my two cents. Love you guys!
