Second Christmas

December was full of Christmas anticipation, with two unsuccessful Santa visits (one at the hospital and one at Mom's work), playing with the candles in the windows and pulling ornaments off the tree and banging them together.  Jakob's vocabulary increased quite a bit, with "doi, doi" on December 10th, "bam boo" on December 13th, "uh oh" on December 21st and "baby" on December 31st.  He also added a lot of other jargon.  December 1st was his first time on the playground and he LOVED it!  It was in the 60's all weekend and we couldn't pass up the opportunity to play outside. On December 3rd, he graduated to the toddler room at daycare, which was exciting but also nerve-racking for Mom and Dad.  We no longer get a daily report card with what he ate for the day and he's amongst all of the walkers.  He did start off the first day by taking Mom's finger and taking 4 steps across the room which was great.  He managed just fine in the new room, despite a few tears on the second and third days.  He was quite happy the first day to be back with some of his buddies from the infant room.  One other milestone in December was that he took 4 steps unassisted o December 27th.  He did get to experience his first snow on December 31st and didn't like that the snow was falling on his jacket.  When he realized it was there, he started swatting at it and fussing.
