Jake had a Breakthrough

The world is such a scary place. There are some things in life that you hope your kids never figure out on their own. As a parent, situations like these become very difficult.

We ask ourselves, "Do we warn our children about the world around them, thus exposing them earlier than necessary? OR do we keep silent and hope they never run across the horrors that threaten them?"

Today, Jake figured out something that we were really hoping to avoid. I'm afraid that life as we know may never be the same again.

That's hilarious! Just wait until he figures out that he can go face first down the stairs - arms outstretched a la Superman. Or the ever popular Stair Surfing - upright, on a piece of cardboard!

Oh my. Does Valerie know Jake? That sounds so like what he will figure out next. Scary! N

I won't be letting Owen watch this video yet!! We're doing our best to keep him off the stairs, but it won't be long before he goes sliding down too :)

i'm sorry . . . but does something come out of his pants at the bottom of the stairs? i'm confused. i've watched it about 20 times now.

Nothing came out of his pants (thank goodness) but it does look like it. I think it is some weird shadow.

OK, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought something was leaking out of his pants....I watched it and thought he sat on a juice box at the bottom. Glad to know it was just a shadow because I was thinking you all had lost your marbles letting him do that! :-) You guys are too funny!

I can really tell Camden and Jake were born about the same time. They both do the same things!!!
