Little Helper

Jake loves moving around.  He hates when we are in the same room too long, or if he can't get too far.  And he has gotten FAST.  Andrew said the other day that we better watch out- when he learns how to walk, he'll be running the next day.  This kid is active!

He also likes being involved with what we're doing- take the dishes for example.  He can now pull himself to standing next to the dishwasher.

He can also pull himself up to standing by the window sill.  He is spending a lot of time looking out the windows these days.  He loves watching the world go by!  It also makes getting ready for me really easy- he will stand there long enough for me to put on makeup, dry, and style my hair.  

One of the good things of having him so active is that his naps are even better now than they used to be.  He's taking a 2.5-3 hour nap in the morning, a 2 hour nap in the afternoon, and a 1.5 hour nap before dinner.  Again, I'm sure a lot of that has to do with us keeping him up until 10pm, but our evenings with him are so nice.  We love our adventurous little man!
