Saturday we went to "Breakfast with Santa" sponsored by our City's park and rec department. Jacob's friends Drew and Christian were also there.  Jacob did not have a good morning and skipped his morning bottle.  I thought for sure he would tear up on the pancakes they were serving, but nope...he just threw them around the plate.  I thought he was too excited to eat since there were a lot of people around, but then when we got home we realized that he had...yucky diarrhea.  Poor baby.  His diaper was pretty bad so daddy gave him a bath to help clean up the mess.  He also managed to get some on his jeans, onesie and socks...yeah, fun laundry for me.  His spirits seemed to be high, he just wasn't hungry and was not in the mood for a bottle.  We ended up going to Anaheim Hills to get Bill's Christmas present, a new mountain bike...did I mention to two boys in my life are spoiled?!?!?!?  anyway, on the way home we stopped and visited with Aunt Di, Uncle Jeff and Chris and Kevin.  They had a good time with Jacob and jacob had a good time showing off his dancing skills for them.  He didn't have anymore bad poopies the rest of the day fortunately.  That night though he was TERRIBLE. He kept waking up and would not want to go back to sleep.  I was not feeling that well so I was not happy with the situation.  Sunday morning Bill went off with a friend of his to do guy stuff.  So Jacob and I hung out all day.  Neither of us changed out of our PJs.  We just hung around the house and I managed to clean up (a little).  Again last night Jacob did not sleep well.  He was really restless.  I thought maybe he is teething since I have seen a lot of drool lately and his appetite has decreased, so I gave hime two teething tablets at one point in the middle of the night. They seemed to work for about 5 minutes but then he was up again.  Needless to say we've had very little sleep in the last 3 nights.  this morning when he woke up, he drank most of his bottle and then right after breakfast he had another bad poopy diaper.  He was not a happy camper when I was changing his diaper and got poop EVERYWHERE!  I was not excited about this at all!  I feel bad for the little guy.  We went out and got him some Pedilyte since he is not drinking his formula and not eating much food.  He even turned down a banana today, which is unusual for him.  He did however manage to eat some cheerios and puffs, but that was about it as far as lunch went.  For dinner he ate a little teryaki chicken and some green beans but not as much as usual.  He did not want to drink the pedilyte from the sippy cup, so I put some in a regular cup and he drank a few ounces :)  yeah.  Then at dinner I have him some from a straw.  He's not quite getting the idea of sucking through the straw, so I just dropped it into his mouth.  It's good that he will drink it, because he's not really drinking his bottles.  He drank most of his bottle this evening, so that was good.  I hope this goes away quick so he is feeling better and so we can get some sleep at night.  I feel like we have a newborn all over again.

New things Jacob is doing.  Bill taught him to give High Fives.  So when you say, "high five" he will stick out his right arm and wait for you to give him a high five.  He still loves dancing, bouncing up and down, moving his arms and shaking his head.  If he can't move his legs you can bet that his little head is moving from side to side whenever he hears music, even in the car...he's so funny in his car seat.  This weekend he was playing with my cell phone and managed to wake up Melinda on Saturday morning and then called my mom and dad this evening.  I need to take it away from him, but right now I don't want to deal with more crying from him...he's doing enough of that for other reasons. He still loves his "stick" the roll from the wrapping paper.  And he LOVES his mickey mouse bouncing ball.  All we have to say is "where's the ball" and he goes searching for it and comes back  and throws it at one of us to play catch with him.  He chases that thing everywhere.  One bad thing he has started to do is when I tell him no to something like no you can't touch that or if I take something away from him, he will give me a very dirty look and start crying and once in a while he will smack my leg....oh no you don't...we are not going to start that!  I am nipping that in the bud for sure and fast!

So that's it for now.  I hope my little baby is feeling better fast.  So until next time...mommy and daddy love you!
