Jacob and I were playing a game w/ the letters of the alphabet. ( A fishing game.) He would "catch" a letter and we'd say a word or name that started w/ that letter. Sounds boring, but to him it was so exciting. Everytime he caught the letter "G" he'd say "Daddy! Daddy!" and I would say, "No, silly, G is for Grandmama!" He kept getting more and more insistent that G was for Daddy. I asked "Why is G for daddy?" and Jacob pointed to his head. Then it made sense. David wears a Georgia hat every day with a huge "G" on it!

The other night, I found a note on my desk that said, "I love you, David" scrawled in Rebekah's handwriting. I asked her later how she had learned how to spell her daddy's name and she said, "Because it says it on the phone!" She told me she had looked on the caller id to see how to spell his name correctly.

Jacob has been climbing on the potty and going when he needs to. Not all the time, but some of the time! I'm not pushing it, so it's all self-motivated. I'm really proud of him!

Benjamin is starting to smile a lot more! I love how his face lights up when he looks at me. He is also becoming really aware of toys on his swing/bouncy seat/car seat and flails his arm around like he wants to grab them. It's really cute.
