Slow train a comin' (aka Jake and Emily's Visit)

Jake Eberly and Emily Drees were in town last weekend. We had a wonderful and relaxing weekend of train playing, fort making, tea drinking, knitting, cooking and xbox. I guess that is why I didn't get any pictures of them with Simon - it was all just so chill.  

Jake and Alan awesomely woke up with Simon both mornings and let the Emilys sleep in. Here is a quick recording of morning play time from Jake, entitled A Slow Train a Comin':

Pictures from last couple days

Snuggled in and relaxing with a drink.

So excited about snack time...

What a face! He's looking for the dried blueberries among the cheerios in the container.

Snack

Just having a snack of bread and water before nap time. 

Chillin and reading the sports section

Through the tube, Over the ball

At Gymboree on Friday afternoon... Push the ball into the tunnel, then climb OVER the ball and THROUGH the tunnel at the SAME TIME!

New boots

These are my new boots. We just got home and Simon saw me take off my boots and after I took off his shoes he put mine on immediately. He walked around in them surprisingly well. When he was done he walked back to the shoe rack, held onto the wall and stepped out of both boots, leaving them nicely put away.
