It all starts somewhere.

Jake got his first lesson in mouse manipulation today. He played at pbskids.org. He did really well and seemed to pick it up quickly. I'm sure this is just the beginning of a long and beautiful friendship. I'll be curious to see if he asks to play on the computer tomorrow.

This afternoon Jake got his stool out of the bathroom and carried it into the family room. I asked him what he was doing. That stool is suppose to stay in the bathroom. He answered, "I'm doing somefing. I'm doing somefing important."  I didn't know whether to laugh or be afraid. I sent him back into the bathroom to return the stool. Now I kind of wish I had waited to see what he was planning before I stopped him.

Thanks to Grandpa Gene for the reminder to put out our hummingbird feeder. I can't believe I forgot this year. The weather has been so warm and gorgeous that I'm sure they must be in the area or close. Jake and I went to Walmart again today to pick up a new feeder and a finch feeder, too. While we were outside placing the feeders, Jake spent some time playing bubbles. Unfortunately the playing is always short-lived and then the pouring begins. I'm not sure there is any bubble solution left.
