Pots, pans and Jake's biggest fan

While cooking dinner last night, I gave Marshall some pots and pans for entertainment. He was actually very coordinated and played quite the beat! He even put the right tops on the pans.
He even PRETENDS to eat well. Love my hungry monkey!
And then Jake joined in. Hitting the pans quickly turned into hitting each other.

Today at the park Jake rode is dark red scooter all around the sidewalk. There were a few other big boys on their bikes and stand up scooters who were zooming by him. Jake kept trying to talk to them and finally they talked back and challenged Jake to a race. I wanted to cry so bad watching Jake at the start line saying "On your mark, get set, go!" and they took off! The boys were long gone and he just kept going and going and smiling when I cheered him on. I didn't get a picture because I wanted to be fully present for this sweet moment and to show him that I was his biggest fan. He has a such a sweet spirit and it's so neat to see that he thinks anything is possible. I'm looking forward to football games and soccer games so I can cheer them on, but for now, cheering in the middle of the park while he tries his very hardest makes me one proud Momma!
