Went swimming....
Jake really loved the pool this trip; he played around much more than he has on previous trips. He was also brave enough to wade in the water up to his chin and he did NOT want help from Mommy or Daddy, so he just had to deal with us always being right by. It's too hard to get action shots without compromising the safety of the camera, so these are his chillin' shots...
Enjoyed a special Saturday breakfast of cinnamon rolls. I guess there's no other way to eat them but to stuff your face...
He was not happy with the picture taking (maybe he was embarrassed of his bed head;-)), but I had to capture his icing-covered mouth...
Mowed the yard (with Daddy's help, of course)...
Doesn't it look beautiful?
Had a blast at our church's "Serve & Slide" Saturday evening. The event was a time to get extra hands to pack school supplies and backpacks for a needy community, then head out to some food and fun. Jake was a little too small for most activities, but we managed to try out the slide before it was too dominated by the big kids. It was a process. First, I had to help him up the steps. Once we got to the top, I then coached him to slide down beside me (we're the little specks at the top)...
Then in my coaching, I got a little too close to the incline and started sliding myself. By this point, I was definitely trying to urge Jake along, but unfortunately, I went down without him...
Luckily, there was a nice boy also at the top with Jake who continued the coaching, then with just a slight push (approved by Mommy, of course), Jake finally journeyed down...
And finally, tried on what Daddy would wear for his first day of school! No, not really, just wanted to add in this cute shot...
