More Jacob

All the gardening we do around here has clearly not been lost on Jacob.

I walked outside the other day to see this lovely addition to our shade garden.

He had planted a fake flower that was downstairs on my sewing table.

I love the little sticks next to it - stakes, perhaps?

I walked into the living room to see Jacob up to this. Yup, he's vacuuming his tongue.

I guess we can rule out rocket science as a potential future career!

Jacob is just starting to get the idea of money, and allowance, and the power & freedom of having your own money. He found 2 pennies on the floor the other day, and carried them around with him ALL day. Finally we had this chat;

Me; "Jacob, would you like me to hold those pennies for you, or put them in your pocket?"

Jacob; "No, me put them in a bank. ..(pause) Buy a dinosaur."

There's just no arguing with that!
