These shoes were made for squeaking.

As you can see, Jacob has been practicing his walking and is getting close to going it alone. He especially likes walking in his squeaky shoes which always make him smile. As you can see at the end of the video, he's also really into the vacuum cleaner which is another object which always gets him excited (Christmas trees, airplanes, Cheerios, and swimming pools have a similar effect). He MUST touch it every times he sees it, and he's been known to lunge out at the closet doors to try to get us to open them so he can see the magic vacuum stored inside. He's a real hoot!
