Birthday Boy & presents


Jacob had the most original response to present time! First we gave him the gifts his siblings had made for him. He gleefully grabbed them and promptly ran over to the rolltop desk and shoved them in a drawer. I have no idea why. It a drawer I use to store manuals from all the items we buy/are given.
He wasn't really into opening the presents themselves, but then he kept running around with the gifts. He was just so excited and happy. It was like he was just overflowing with energy and happiness and could not contain it, so he had to get up and run. Quite a contrast with Leanna and Justin who were just so embarrassed to open presents in front of a room full of people that they would barely look at their gifts! It was just really fun to see.
Timothy and Justin enjoyed playing with Jacob's gifts as well, the dinosaur and penguin bath toys were big hits with everyone. And a crayola thermos I picked up from Walmart on a whim was a huge hit too-Jacob kept running it over the floor as though it was a car! It's always neat to see what actually catches their fancy.
