Thanksgiving 2008
We ventured to Minnesota, to visit all of Mom’s family & go to Bluefin Bay! It was a great time…
We arrived on the Thursday before Thanksgiving, taking the 6am flight out of Atlanta. Not so much fun to be up early, especially when we didn’t sleep in the hotel room for more than about two hours…and, Friday was the same point in my pregnancy that Mom’s water broke! Thankfully, we didn’t have a problem at all & Mom is still very much so pregnant!
Here are some photos…if you are lucky, you’ll receive our snowy Christmas photo in the mail!
In the outdoor pool! Yup…it was about 30 degrees outside & we were in the open air pool…fun!
With the Aunties & Uncles who were at Bluefin at the time…in the pool!
In the hot tub with Uncle & Auntie…yeah, hot tubs aren’t for little kids, but when it is 30 degrees or so outside, you will be fine in the hot tub!
My crab towel…isn’t it cute???
With Uncle Jason & his beard…while we were at the CoHo Cafe…yum!
Out in the snow…the only stuff we saw come down on the whole trip, less than one inch!
I did NOT like the snow on my shoes!!!
Our family photo shot…which is what is on the Christmas Card this year!
We had a great time, although the trip was a whirlwind…we were at Bluefin from Sunday until Friday…and, then we flew out on Saturday morning. Fast, but fun. Our next trip will definitely not be as event filled…and, we’ll have my sibling with, too!
Finally…we got a new camera…
And, I’ve been lazy…I have more photos to post, but I just wanted to get these out there…we have another RASH epidemic!!! Ugh…I’m not excited!
First, a cute photo of me, with my shirt on!
Now, a photo with my spots…there are a few on my legs & arms as well…I thought I was over getting these random rashes!!!
Mom promises more photos, soon! Hey, we’ll just be watching the election results tonight, so she doesn’t have anything else to do, right???

A birthday party for Wyatt…
And…photos with my friend, Ashley. I didn’t get any with Wyatt, or if I did, Mom didnt’ get them to post! Aren’t these cute?
Unfortunately, Mommy had to work a tennis tournament, so she couldn’t come with for the festivities! I had a pretty good day…went to the party, got to see Mom at work, and then hung out at home with Daddy…can’t complain about that!

Another fun day at home with Alyssa…
Here are some photos from today…Alyssa was here with me to play all day.
Alyssa - smiling as usual!
And Jacob with his grin…
The day would not be complete without a picture on the couch! We LOVE to sit on the couch.
Earlier, I gave Alyssa a hug, but Mom didn’t have her camera & I didn’t do it again…maybe next time she’ll get a photo! ~Jacob.
The fourth of July…
Well, we got out to the boat for the afternoon…I got to run around with my lifejacket on, and see my cousins, Lauren & Kate, along with their parents, my Aunt Regina & Uncle Andy. It was a good time…
Here are a few photos from inside the boat…I wasn’t in there during this time, I was outside…
We had good food, took a ride down the river, and as soon as we got back to the dock, we left for home. It had been a long day in a confined space…and, I was ready for a nap! ~ Jacob.
I’m going to be a big brother…
Well, Mom will finally let me tell everyone, since we are 12 weeks along & there have been no issues…she didn’t spend last night in the ER, like she did with me, at the same point in her pregnancy. We are glad about that!
As for me…no new photos right now…Mom needs to get working on it! I am getting into having temper tantrums & not eating due to my teeth that have decided to emerge…I’m getting the pointy teeth on top, and Mom thinks I might be getting the molars on top as well. So, I have fits about it…get frustrated when I can’t do something I think I want or should be able to do…and, Mom tries to just deal with me, hoping I don’t bite her - yes, I’ve gotten into that!
Other than that, we’ll be making an appearance - that is, me and my mom - in Minnesota, hopefully arriving on July 31st with Auntie Karissa, courtesy of Uncle Jason & NWA. Be in prayer that all our flights will be open with enough seating for us!
More later…hopefully, I’ll convince Mom to get some photos, too! ~ Jacob.
Happy Father’s Day!
We spent the day just hanging out as a family…and then we had dinner at Nana’s house, complete with flying the airplane on the golf course! Here are the photos:
It’s fun to run on some really nice grass!
And chase the airplane when it is flying around!
I really thought it was fun to have the balloon, and Pops decided to clip it to the back of my shirt…I ran around the house with it!
We had a really good time! I think Dad enjoyed his second father’s day…Jacob.
Uh-oh…uh-oh…uh-oh…
I started saying that last night & it’s continued into today. Mom is very happy that I am getting more “words” so she’ll be able to tell the doctor all about it! Right now, I can say “yes”, “uh-oh”, “mamama”, “dadada”, “nana” (yes, he does say it)…and, he can sign MILK and MORE…although, he pretty much just uses milk lately. He’s gotten very good at asking for milk. When I started using the sign, Mom would give me milk pretty much on demand. Now, I just use the sign when I am in my chair & want milk. I got it down!
Mom is glad that she doesn’t have to listen to me say “no” like all the other children, too…I still haven’t started saying no.
Here is a photo from today…it’s been raining & raining lately (good for the garden!!!)…so, it’s cooler here! I get to wear the dinosaurs again!
That’s it for now! ~ Jacob.
