Snow Days

We've had more snow days this year than any year I can remember.  I can't believe how much snow Jacob has seen in such a short time compared to how much I have seen in my life time.  I wonder if it will still snow this much when he's old enough to enjoy it?!  With all this cold weather, we've all had a lot of time indoors together.  We've been trying to show Jacob the snow, and I think A finally succeeded.

Oscar has also been inside so much more than normal.  I guess all this time inside has finally sparked his curiosity about Jacob.  He normally just sits and looks at Jacob, but doesn't get too close.  Well, that has changed.  He now sits right beside him and tries to share his toys.  One night, while playing with Jacob on the couch, Oscar got a little too impatient for some attention.  He jumped up and laid down right beside him.  Jacob got really excited and started kicking and grabbing Oscar's hair.  Oscar tolerated this for a few minutes, but once he had enough, he rolled over right against Jacob's arm so that he could grab him anymore.  I know it's probably not as funny in writing, but it was really entertaining in person! 

And I just had to include this adorable picture of Jacob and his elephant (I think it's about time that elephant got a name...).  He loves to hug it now and will hold it for a long time.  He's even gone to sleep with it a few times.



Happy Monday Everyone!
