Let's Rodeo!

Jacob, Mommy, and Daddy had a great time this past weekend at the Rodeo.  We saw lots of animals - goats, chickens, cows, bulls, and a real pony ride.  And we sampled lots of great food: Asian BBQ chicken on a stick, turkey leg, (Manuel and Jacob ate a) hot dog, and warm chocolate chip cookies.  Jacob really loves his protein.  He couldn't get enough chicken or turkey....he wanted 'more', 'more', 'more'.  That baby can eat!



Jacob didn't want to pet the goat



Big dairy cows

Jacob content watching the pony ride and eating a cookie

Jacob was interested in the big bulls

Otro! Jacob's first Spanish words.

Jacob has been expressing himself with more words lately, especially because the pacifier isn't in his mouth as much.  His favorite word still 'more', and he usually uses it to refer to wanting more food, but I started hearing him use another version of the word this past weekend.  His first Spanish word = otro = another one.  Jacob and I were playing upstairs on Sunday and I heard him say otro several times, and then again yesterday at dinner he was asking for more of something on his plate.  And I swear today I heard him say hola when daddy joined us in the bathroom after Jacob's bath.
