Jacob just saved a bunch of money on his car insurance

We're still trying to figure this one out, but Jacob's new word is "Geico." Like the insurance company. It doesn't seem to refer to any object in particular, but one night Tom heard him saying, "no no Geico." Tom's theory is that he is trying to say JACOB. Because he has heard us say (once or twice), "no no Jacob."

If this is true, at least he's not telling people that his name is Joe anymore.

He is also somewhat obsessed with Wheel of Fortune. Mostly the spinning wheel. So we usually watch it in the evening so that Jacob can see the wheel. Last night, he was off playing when the final puzzle came up. He went running to the TV when he heard the music that is played before the final puzzle. I am not kidding. They spin a little wheel with the prizes at that time, and that is his favorite part. So he knows the music that goes along with it. I'm not sure if that makes him very smart, or if we should be worried. Maybe a little of both.

This is Jacob one year ago (5 months old). Look at that baldy!

Jacob letting us know that he would like to please go upstairs. He started screaming at me just after I took the picture.

Going for a spin around the basement on his motorcycle. Or bicycle.
