Why we love our 1 year old

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Jacob is a character in and of himself and is always making us laugh. Here are some of his tradmarks that are our favorites...

1) He is obsessed with shoes: He is constantly putting random objects in our shoes or carrying them around with him...When its time to go somewhere he is the first to grab his shoes.

2) He is a lover and a fighter: Yesterday we experienced a bit of both when he bit his brother on the leg during a morning spat and tried to take Teancum's by the hand for a late night dance when he saw mom and dad dancing in the kitchen.

3)He's independent: He will only eat if he feeds himself, is insisting on walking places without holding hands, and will wander around the house entertaining himself and hiding behind closed doors.

4) He doesn't take no for an answer...especially when it comes to candy.

5) He's conservative: When playing in the bathroom he tears off the tiniest bits of TP to throw in the toilet...knowing we can't get too mad when it takes ten minutes to use one square.

6)He's an athlete: He will run to get a ball and bat at the mention of baseball.

7) His smile and His eyes...there's a million combinations and we love each one.
