Jacob Quotes

"So guys, what do you think about picking up lunch?"

When he says things that sound like he should be 30, not 3, we can't help but laugh.  We try to keep the laughter on the inside, but it's almost impossible.

Jacob Quotes

"Hey Mommy!  Ryan thinks it's funny when I hit him in the head!"

Oh boy...here we go!  I walked in on Jacob throwing a ball at Ryan.  Since Ryan was laughing, Jacob assumed that meant it was okay.  Yikes!  Needless to say, we have had multiple discussions recently about how fragile Ryan's neck still is and that under no circumstances is it okay to hit him or anyone else in the head.  I think I am going to have more stories to tell like this...

Jacob Quotes

We walked by someone at church several Sundays ago.


Jacob:  What is her name?


Mommy:  Angel.


Jacob:  Can she fly?


Ha!  I love it!  Trying to explain the difference between a name and a heavenly being.

Potty Training
Following is a dialogue between Jacob and I about his struggle with going poopie on the toilet instead of in his underpants:


Mommy:  "Jacob, why don't you go poopie on the toilet?"


Jacob:  "My scared of walrus."


Mommy:  "There's no walrus in our toilets!"


Jacob:  "My just pretending!"


A few days later, because yes we are still not pooping in the toilet and the washer is crying for a break:)


Mommy:  "Jacob, why don't you go poopie on the toilet?"


Jacob:  "Because my don't want to get pinched."


Mommy:  "Oh, is the toilet seat pinching you?"


Jacob:  "No, by the alligators!"


Ha!  We may never see poopie in the toilet.
