Our week...

...has been quite a busy one.  I think Jacob had at least one fun activity each day this week.  He has been so busy since he's really started walking and activities have really helped us both stay happy!
On Monday we went to play to the tubes at Rock Creek Church.  A church in Little Rock has a huge room just for toys and tubes and its completely free to the public.  Such a great thing to go do on a boring Monday!  Jacob had a great time and played really hard.  I didn't manage to get any pictures.  I'll try harder next time :)
Tuesday was story time at the library.  Jacob loves going every week and loves it even more now that he can run around the room! Tuesday night, we went out to dinner to celebrate Mardi Gras.  Aren't they cute?!

Wednesday was playgroup.  He always has so much fun playing with his friends, and this week was no different. 
Thursday was a busy day.  We went to gymnastics in the morning and Jacob had a great time.  He always plays so hard and is exhausted by the time we leave!


After gymnastics, Jacob took a good nap, and then we went to the park to meet some friends.  He was having so much fun playing outside, we had to go out in the yard for a while when we got home.  He played with Oscar and Lizzy for so long, throwing balls for them and watching them fun around.




And today, we have already had brunch with A and dropped off all our recycling before nap time.  This week has been so busy, we may have to take next week off :)

Happy Friday!

We were so exicted to share our news this past weekend...
I am about 9 weeks, so Baby T2 should be arriving on or around September 22.  Looks like 2012 is going to be an interesting and eventful year!

happy Monday!

On the Move

Jacob has definitely taken his sweet time learning to walk, but he is finally there!  He took his first steps a few weeks ago, but was still being stubborn and would not let go and walk.  He would take two steps, but then drop down and crawl.  Well, that all changed about a week ago.  Last weekend, he finally started taking more steps together and then just walking as far as he wanted to.  I'm not sure what's more amazing - how quickly he has mastered his new skill or how stubborn he was to refuse even trying for so long!

Happy Friday!

Happy (late) Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Jacob had so much fun opening his early Valentine's package a few days ago.  Thanks Kay-Kay and Papa.

 And he loved his Winnie the Pooh Valentine he got in the mail Tuesday!  He carried it around all afternoon.  Thanks Mia, Teddy Bear, and Annie!
Happy Wednesday!

Jacob's first haircut

Yesterday was a big day for Jacob.  He got his first haircut!  I have been putting it off for quite a while, but he really needed it. 
Jacob did really well.  He wasn't scared or upset by any of it.  Actually, he was really excited to look in all the mirrors and see all the new people and things.  

Jacob did not, however, sit still.  At. All.  I am very impressed that she cut his hair straight, or at all for that matter.  I have no idea how she did it!  She cut his hair in the chair, in the floor, holding him, while I was holding him, sitting on the counter.  I think she got a work out by the time she was done with him!

This was the best picture I could get of the final results. He was too interested in the fish to look at the camera!  I'll post more later this week.
 Happy Wednesday!
