Jacob will be 1 next week - big construction party is all planned! We've been to the pumpkin patch - check out picture on my flickr page. Jacob has 2 bottom teeth, and seems to be working on the top 2. He's still not walking by himself, though I think he could if he just would.
Elias keeps getting bigger and bigger. He's so much more conversational now. Last week, he told Zach where to find his pjs, which pair he wanted, & when Zach held them up he said, 'yep, that will work!' Too funny! He's also become really concerned when we're up on ladders or step-stools (which is most of the time, since we're painting the outside of the house!) He'll look up at you and say "Be careful up there, pay attention to what you're doing." and once even told me to come down from up there & offered his hand to help me down. I have no idea where he comes up with it all! He can count to 12, and knows how old he is, and how old Jacob will be. He knows his colors and shapes, though he still likes to call round crackers (ritz) oval crackers. I think he just likes saying oval! No potty train yet...maybe one day?
Jacob has become more conversational, too. He only really says MaMa or DaDa clearly enough to make out, but he'll just babble away & then look at you as if you should know what he's saying. He loves chasing Elsie around, and has really started looking at books. One of his favorites has a little mirror in it, which he thinks is hilarious! He's also eating everything in sight - potatoes, green beans, banana, you name it, he'll eat it. Luckily, he seems to be slimming down rather than getting chubbier! The only thing he's not fond of is milk in a sippy cup. He'll drink juice from a sippy, but not milk, unless it's in Elias' sippy, which is just like his. Otherwise he wants his milk in a bottle, thankyouverymuch!
