Swinging away
Posted by Missy Roberts at 8:18 PM About Jake
Jacob had a GREAT night last night, he pretty much slept from about 8pm to 7am. He only woke up twice in search of his pacifier. Wow, we were shocked this morning when we got to sleep in! What a great feeling. This afternoon we had lunch with Grandma, Grandpa, Auntie Alana, Jeanne, Auntie Val and Danielle at a place near Auntie Val's work. There was a farmer's market there so we walked around a little bit but we were all hungry so we went to get some lunch before Aunt Val had to go back to work. While at lunch Jacob was supposed to have a bottle, but since there was so much going on he was not interested in laying back for a few minutes to eat. Instead he refused the bottle and wanted to play with everyone. It's a bit frustrating that when we are around others or in a new location Jacob is not interested in drinking his formula. So he basically skipped a whole bottle today, that's not a good thing. He was okay with eating some sweet potatoes and peaches, when he eats that he can sit up and see everything that is going on. We are going to have to work on giving him bottles in public now:)
Later in the afternoon Jacob and I went to visit Nani and Papa, they really hadn't spent time with him since last week and in their words, that is too long. Nani is feeling much better now and is able to hold Jacob again:) Papa took Jacob to the park and put him in the swing for the first time. He LOVED it. Then two little girls came to swing next to him. He was stretching his neck so he could watch them swing too. He is so funny. He has to be in the know of everything. I think he was also trying to hear what they are talking about (I think he gets that trait from his mommy hehe). So Papa and Jacob hung out for a while at the park just the two of them (and Harley of course). When we got home, he drank his bottle (all of it, thank goodness) and went straight to sleep. I think that swing ride wore him out. Tomorrow we are going to pick up his 6 month pictures (finally). I am so excited to see them. So until next time...mommy and daddy love you
