Hanging out!

Jacob loves his dog Maggie and she loves him too!

We are still working on figuring out whose toys are whose...

Time for hugs!

Jacob still loves remote controls!

Jacob and Daddy hanging out!  They are enjoying watching youtube videos together!

Jacob had such a great time camping!

Yummy teething rings!  I need these for all the teeth I am getting.

Now I know how to wave hello and goodbye!

Toothy grin!

Jacob enjoys playing with Daddy and our camera case!

Quality time with Mommy!

Jacob is now 8 months

Jacob a little tired in his car seat.

He likes to pull all of his toys out of his toy box at the same time.

He is still all smiles!

Now he will actually hold the bottle on his own.  He never liked to do it because he always had one of us to do it for him.

Our little Alfalfa!

Mommy still loves to give her little man big kisses!

Ariel is such a great helper!  She is all ready to babysit!

Jacob's Great-Grandma loves Jacob soooo much!  She couldn't believe how big he is already!

Teething rings are our life savers every now and then...

Just a quick little update....

Jacob is growing up so fast!  Today I just realized that he can sit up on his own and is close to pulling himself up.  He can easily lean standing up in his crib if assisted.  I thought I would post this youtube video of him playing the piano.  Enjoy!

This is what happens when you let him try to feed himself.

Look at that mess!

Not sure what he's doing here but he is his usual happy self. 

New Photo Time

At the moment, Jacob is getting bigger and smarter.  Not only can he crawl, he's getting into things that he shouldn't be getting into.  You know, like electrical cords and our coffee table.  Just when you think you have the place baby proofed, it needs more and more and more.

 
                           Jacob and Orion are so interested in each other.
                           If they could, they would watch each other all day.

                             He also loves posing for the camera.

                                Venus is so good with the babies.

                      Jacob in his Johnny Jumper.  He's not the biggest fan of it.

                             He's getting really good at sitting up.

                       Jacob loves Two Bit.  I can't believe that Two Bit
                                     puts up with his tricks.

                                        Jacob's favorite cord.

Jacob really is a happy boy who enjoys
laughing all the time!

We really were blessed to have such a wonderful baby boy.

Jacob loved visiting and playing with one of his many cousins Dylan!

He still has the biggest and bluest eyes ever!  We hope they don't change...

Two bit and Jake stretching.  It's such a hard life for the two of them...

Time for hugs whether you want them or not!

Jacob Happy and Playful

Big smiles from our big boy Jacob!

 He is still a little to small for his Johnny Jumper but one day it will be perfect...

Jacob still loves his activity center and all the toys on it!

Here is a photo of Jacob hanging out with his buddy Orion.  They were born 3 weeks apart.

Nonna's 60th Birthday Surprise!

Surprise Nonna and Poppa!  We decided to just show up for Nonna's 60th Birthday Party!

Nonna was a little shaken up and excited!

Jacob loved meeting his Great-Grandmother!

Nonna and Jacob enjoyed talking with each other!  Nonna also told Jacob many jokes and he laughed and laughed!

Great family photo!

Poppa enjoyed playing with Jacob!

Jacob does look like Poppa!  They have the same eyes!

 Nonna didn't even want to put Jacob down when he was sleeping.  She loves holding him!

Jacob looked so adorable all bundled up for the colder weather in Michigan!

Jacob loved meeting his cousin's Ariel and Joe!  He loves them so much and hears Mommy and Daddy talk about them all the time! 

Ariel is almost close to being a professional babysitter!  She was so wonderful with Jacob and loved feeding him a bottle.

Jacob was so curious at the restaurant that we went to.  At least with got a photo with Great-Grandma Rose! 

Jacob loves his Nonna and Poppa very much!  He can't wait to go back to Michigan soon for a visit.  He also wants Nonna and Poppa to come visit him too!
