Mitchell's favorite activities

Here are some pictures of a few of Mitchell's favorite activities...
1st picture - Mitchell still LOVES going on walks. Jacob bought a leash for Tex that he wears around his waist, so that he can easily push Mitchell and control Tex at the same time. I have not yet mastered the skill - but that's why I have Jacob, right? Jacob and I have been jogging probably 3 or 4 times a week. He even ran in a 5k race last Saturday morning!


2nd picture - Mitchell still loves his bathtime. We are still bathing him in his little tub in our kitchen sink, but we now have to clear everything from within his reaching distance, because his arms go a swingin'! As soon as our bathroom tile is done, we'll start bathing him in our jacuzzi tub (Yes, we're STILL working on the dang tile!) I'm thinking he'll be pretty excited about all of the extra room to play around.

3rd picture - Mitchell loves to be held up in the air. Jacob even tosses and catches him a little now - but I'm still too much of a worry wart :) You're almost guarenteed to get a smile and a little giggle out of him, especially if you bring him down towards your face and give him a little kiss before pushing him back up. With all of this kind of work-out, you'd think my arms would be a little more toned!!!

4th picture - As you can see, we're still working making him like his tummy time :( Although you can't tell in this picture, he truly is liking it more and more, probably because it's getting easier and easier for him. But he has to already be in a good mood before we even begin. If he's already fussy - it's game over.

Looks to me like Mitchell much prefers walks over tummy time!
He looks so happy in the stroller and I can see Tex patiently waiting in the background!

I love the stroller picture. It is too cute!! I'm assuming he hasn't made it to the pool yet...since I haven't seen a post on it.

uhm...pic #2 should be in a magazine! Do you scrapbook? If not, start. Your pictures are great!

I'm very proud of you for being able to jog at all with all those hills around there -- whether or not you're the one pushing the stroller and controlling Tex!
