king of my domain

With the weather being nice (& sometimes not so nice), mummy and I have been spending time outside. We either go for a long walk down our road or we play on the tire swing and fort or play in the rock pile. The other day was a nice day so i got to bring my John Deere tractor outside to play on. I had mummy put it on the top of the rock pile so that i could practice my 4-wheeling and survey my kingdom from high up. I must say that I like my kingdom but I am looking forward to some upgrades to it this summer.

Time to move on

Well my latest escapades have prompted my mum to get my dad to finish my room. I have decided that it is way more fun to climb out of my crib and get into mischief then it is to stay in and nap like I'm suppossed to. Of course I could probably get into more mischief if i didn't insist on opening the bedroom door and telling mummy that I'm awake cause that just makes her come up and tell me to get back into my crib. But since i know how to do that too, i sometimes oblige but sometimes i try and hide under my blankets on my big bed. So all this moving around has gotten mummy into nag mode and so daddy needs to get to work on finishing my room. So if things work out to mummy's schedule then i should be able to sleep in my big bed next week. I don't think my parents have figured out that with me really loose that i can get into even more trouble!!!!!!

Happy Valentines day

Mummy & I would like to wish everyone a very Happy Valentines Day. Mummy told me that this is the day that you give extra kisses and hugs to everyone so I started out the day giving mummy some extra loving (of course i also woke her up at 6am!)

This last week has been a learning week for me. I learned that when daddy sets up the video camera to tape me that it is not the time for me to shove noodles up my nose at dinnertime. I figured a noodle was a safe bet but it really didn't feel that nice up my nose so i don't recommend this to any of my friends.

Then the other day i learned to peddle my bike while mummy pushed me down our hill. I also learned that laying in sawdust is okay but then when you try to itch your face with your mitten which is covered in sawdust you should avoid contact with your eyes cause it makes them sore.

I have also developed a real interest in "Cartoons" much to mummy's dismay. She has been letting me watch the early morning cartoons such as Dora, High 5 and Word world and Magic school bus but now I figure that I should be allowed to watch cartoons whenever the TV is on. She told me that now that the weather is improving we can go outside more so I don't need the cartoons. I must admit that I do like playing outside way more than watching TV.

I helped mummy with some yard cleaning yesterday and she told me in a couple months she will have a surprise for me that will make outdoor playing really fun.

Catching up

So I am working on getting internet but i need to get Steve past the price shock so hopefully by the end of the month I can gently push him into getting the dish installed. In the mean time i have been able to borrow my mum's computer and now that i have a flashcard I can post some pictures too.

We have really been enjoying the snow the last little while and have become quite good at making snowmen and tobagganing down our driveway. We manage to keep our snow a little longer than everyone else which suits me fine as I really like it.

Jacob really enjoys playing in the snow and likes to take his tractors and buckets out to play. He has also developed a real liking to eating the snow and we can usually find him with his face planted in a snowpile licking it. This licking has also transferred to inside where he will lick furniture, the floor or whatever suits his mood. The other day while I ran upstairs to quickly vacuum the landing I came back downstairs 5 min. later to discover my son hiding behind the counter with a frozen block of butter that he had taken from the fridge freezer, unwrapped and was in the process of eating it. When i caught him he smiled and said "Eating it". Yup the days of being able to leave him in a room unsupervised for even a minute are gone as he has learned to entertain himself in the most interesting ways. Mind you we can't leave him in the room with us either while we are making dinner as he has learned to hide behind the couch and get into trouble.

I must say that I was hoping that I would have a smart child but some days he is smarter than even I had hoped
