Froggie

I had to run across the street to our new house with Grace the other day. It has gotten really cold so I and needed something to bundle her up in. I had gotten Jake's frog costume out and washed it and it was hanging in my closet so put her in it. It was perfect for keeping her warm and she looked awfully cute in it. Here is a picture of Jake when he wore the frog bunting at 6 months:

From Jacob, the little froggie!

Fire House Visit with Uncle Jarrod

 

Uncle Jarrod took Jake to the Fire station today where he used to volunteer as an EMT. Jake got to climb on the fire truck and ambulence. They even gave him his own fireman hat. He loved it all except for when the ladder made a loud sound. He said he's hoping next time they will "start it up". Thanks for such a fun time, Uncle Jarrod!!!

Happy Birthday, Mimi and Daddy!

Birthday season for our family is in full swing! Friday was Mimi and Daddy's Birthday. We started the day by making a delicious breakfast for Daddy...pancakes, eggs, and bacon. For lunch, we took Mimi to "Mimi's Cafe". How fitting! It was great celebrating with her. In the evening, we celebrated Daddy's birthday with Grammy, Poppy, and Uncle Jarrod. We had dinner, then went to see the new Bond movie while our loving neighbors, Josh and Christa Heap, kept Jake and Grace! What a fun-filled day!

 

 

 

 

Crazy Ball

 Jake wanted this ball when we were out shopping for Mike's birthday. We named it the "Crazy Ball" and it has been a lot of fun for him. I like when he puts it on his head and it looks like funny blue hair!

Dinner at the Tompkins

Check out Jennifer Steward's post from our dinner at the Tompkins. It was funny (as usual) watching all the kids interact. I think we might have another "Dr. Williams" on our hands! Thanks, Sara and Andrew for a great time! Jennifer, thanks for the picture - do you like how I stole it off your blog. Hee hee!

Fall Fun!

My mom keeps Jake on Wednesdays. She shared these pictures with me. They did a lot of fun things this fall. They went to Iron's a few times to get pumpkins, see the animals, and eat their delicious cider donuts. I tagged along for a trip to Young's Dairy Farm. Click this link to see more pictures.

Carving Pumpkins with Grammy and Poppy

 
 

Check out these pumpkin carvers! Jake and Grace had fun carving pumpkins at Grammy and Poppy's house one day this fall. Jake stays there on Tuesdays and Thursdays while I work. Grace isn't a regular yet. :-)

Fun at the Park

We went to the park with Tiffany, Grant, Cole, and Avery today. The weather was beautiful. The boys love playing together...there was a lot of "wrestlemania". Boys will be boys! They also enjoyed feeding the ducks and having a picnic lunch. Check out more pictures from the park.

Little Dribblers

I signed Jake up for the Little Dribblers class at the YMCA. I do the class with him so it our "thing" to do together on Saturday mornings. We stretch, run around cones, knock bowling pins down with the ball, and shoot it in the goal. Jake's favorite thing is for me to chase him and try to get the ball from him.
