Jake must have the touch. Two weekends ago he put Jonathan’s Scooby Doo pole in the water and caught a fish his first time! He was so excited. He caught 5 more after that. The down side is, now he thinks every time you put your pole in you catch a fish!
Jake went down a waterslide for the first time at the Animal Kingdom Lodge . He cracked up the whole way down. Once he hit the water he immediately said, “again!” I think he must have gone down the slide about 20 times. When it was time to dry off he cried the whole way out of the pool. He is such a daredevil, he’ll try anything!
Jakes was obsessed (and still is) with choo-choo trains and buses throughout our vacation. He didn’t care that we were going to the Magic Kingdom he was more excited about the bus ride we took to get there!
As a souvenir we bought him diecast replicas of the Disney buses that transport you to the parks, the cruises and to and from the airport. He literally fell asleep with them in his hands at night. Now that we are home he takes them everywhere with him.
Jake was beside himself when he saw Mater and Lightening McQueen! He checked them both out thoroughly. The Disney worker kept telling him to look into the headlight (there’s a camera placed there so the driver can see where he’s going). Every time Jake did, the driver revved the engine real loud!
The boys went to see the Easter bunny this week. Jake gave him a good once over. After he saw Jonathan climb up on his lap, he figured he most be okay and he climbed up too.
“Jake, someday I see our name in lights. Jonathan (first of course) and Jake.”
While visiting my sister Pam in Chicago this weekend we started looking at this picture and trying to come up with what we thought Jonathan was saying to Jake. I thought it would be fun to have everyone come up with their own caption. You can post it as a comment.

Jonathan got DDR for his birthday. He can’t do it without Jake wanting to do it too! Little does Jake know, his dance pad doesn’t work! It probably won’t be long before he figures it out.
Both Jonathan and Jake like to serve us food from the grill Jake got for his birthday. You definitely won’t eat gourmet from their restaurant though. Sometimes Jake gives you the whole hamburger and sometimes you just get the pickles! When he gives you a hotdog you only get the bun, but he always remembers to put ketchup on it! But what really counts is that he always puts his little chef’s hat on when he serves you!
The other day, when I wandered into the kitchen on coffee break, Jake came bumbling over to me with a determined look on his face. He tugged on my shirt and pulled me down so he could get his face right in front of mine, and then proudly said “Daddy Jonathan school.”
I think it counts as his first sentence. Do you?
