Jacob Does DC...and learns what life is like without Dada at home. No nonsense baths, no electronics store or home improvement store runs, and, gasp, TV!
Yep, when Mommy needs a dose of sanity, on come the Teletubbies for a glorious 30 minutes of rapt toddler attention. We have sunk so low! Glad that's over!
So, where exactly did Jacob go?
Mount Vernon (Mansion Tour and Washington's Tomb)
Potomac Mills (not like that's unusual for him!)
Holocaust Museum
Photo op outside The Old Post Office
The National Aquarium
Photo op outside The White House
Smithsonian American Art Museum (The Renwick Gallery)
Ford's Theatre
Occoquan Workhouse (couldn't get close due to construction!)
Photo ops at the Washington Monument and Capitol
Museum of Natural History
IMAX Theater for a T-Rex Movie
Hirshhorn Sculpture Garden
National Gallery of Art
Springfield Mall (again, not really unusual)
That's a busy week! He learned to nap-on-the-go in the stroller, on the Metro, and in the car. He was a trooper! And we rode 4 out of 5 Metro lines!

Whatever, Mom, as long as
you keep the snacks coming |
And the Capitol?
The snack cup is
almost empty, Mom! |
T-Rex and his prey! |
Great art gallery, Mom,
