"Playing nite-nite time with his lion"
We're so ready for spring in the Irwin house! The mounds of snow are thankfully receeding but not very quickly! We've been stuck inside for way too long and the results have been quite humorous. Jake loves to take off his clothes now...pretty much a daily routine while he's playing. His vocabulary is soaring as well as his understanding. When he got done taking a bath the other day, he looks towards Mike and said, "Thank you Daddy!". Sweet! He is able to put together little sentences now and communicates very well. His imagination is running wild...he LOVES to build legos with Dad and just today he turned his bread crusts from lunch into alligators with no legs! haha!
Sleeping is getting better. About 6 weeks ago Jake decided that he could not possibly fall asleep without me right there and has grown more attached that usual. We're hanging in there with the sleeping...the big boy bed and room switch has helped I think. We just take it one day at a time and this week he has slept several nights all the way through in his own bed which is quite an improvement!
Jake loves to have his picture taken and the horrible mother that I am just hasn't gotten the camera out enough lately. He got so excited when I wanted to take pictures of his latest boo-boo when he came into contact with the edge of a desk!
Hope to get motivated with "spring" coming to get outside especially with the camera!
Jake helped Daddy build some raised garden beds! We have cilantro, broccoli, lettuce, spinach, and carrots coming up outside already. Inside we started basil, chives, parsley, jalepeno peppers, and some cherry tomatoes! We're excited to garden this year and get some other things later as well. Jake loves watching the plants grow and get bigger. He really loves watering with Dad!
my boys! This is Jake's kissy face!
Jake learning how to cook meat! They are obsessed!
mmm...grilling.....so glad it's getting warmer!
check me out!
just having a snack!
So handsome but was getting a little shaggy!
Got a new haircut the next day...not sure what he was doing here (he took his shirt off and was running around in circles!)
New haircut and warm enough outside to have some bare piggy toes and a picnic lunch! He was set!
How sweet are these?!?!
This is our latest head injury...Jake ran into a desk corner but it really looks like he's been in a fight!
Looks like it hurt!

Jake has been loving his new window stickers! We found some at the dollar store last week to encourage number and color recognition. He just really likes to take them all down and then put them all back up.
