Jake & Luke, Wolfe Creek Park May 2011

Some friends of ours were camping at Wolfe Creek Park this past weekend and they have a son (Luke) that is 4 weeks older than Jake. Jake loves being outside and with other kids so Jacob and I decided this would be prefect. We could visit our friends and Jake could visit his!

Jake had a blast playing with Luke and Lanie. Here are a few pics!

Jake pushed that stroller around for a LONG time walking behind it. Maybe this means he will be walking soon! The stroller went to fast when we turned it right side up so we left him alone. He is in training for when Jaycie is here.

26 Weeks & Counting!!

Less than 100 days until my due date! YEA!!!!

98 days (14 weeks) left to go. These are going to be some HOT and LONG 98 days but I don't know that I want Jaycie to come even a little bit early. I feel like I need to spend as much time with Jake as possible while I can.

He has started saying Bye-Bye and giving kisses. It's the cutest thing EVER!!

Pink Eye and now FEVER!

Last week Jakes eyes started watering a lot so I thought he had allergies because this is about the third time his eyes have been like this. Allergies alone would be horrible but then Saturday, Christine called and said Kanins eyes started draining just Jakes. They are in the same daycare room. She took Kanin to Urgent Doc and it was pink eye. Jakes eyes were still bad and the Allergy medicine wasn't helping so I decided I better get Jake looked at. Of course...his is pink eye also! GREAT!! No doubt, Jake probably gave it to Kanin since I thought it was just allergies. I have never had pink eye and his eyeball wasn't pink so I didn't have any idea that's what it could have been. The Dr. gave us some ointment to put in his eyes and his eyes looked normal this morning. I thought we were good to go. I took him to daycare and about 2 hours later got a call to come get him because he has FEVER. If it isn't one thing it's another!! The joys of parenting.

Jake as Jaycie!

Sneak peek at what Jaycie will probably look like! If Jaycie looks like her daddy, here is what we can expect when she is 10 months old. I'll have to take a picture of her at 10 months old to compare!

BTW--Jake hated the headband and kept ripping it off!

Our new schedule has me EXHAUSTED!!

Jake has decided that he wants to wake up at 4:30 every morning instead of 6am. I know it's only an hour and a half but it feels like I just get to bed when he wakes up. It wouldn't be so bad if he woke up for a bottle and went back to bed, but he is up wide awake and ready to play! We tried keeping him up later last night to see if it would help but instead all it did was make it later that I could get to bed also. He woke up at 4:40 this morning, ate his bottle and then wanted to play. We have GOT to figure out something different because I'm EXHAUSTED!!! Maybe more so because I have a cold along with the new morning schedule but something has to change.

Jakes 1st Swimming Pool!

We bought Jake a little swimming pool from Wal-Mart yesterday because he loves the bath tub but he gets a little wild in there. I figured it would give him something to do in the evenings after daycare besides sit inside like he does all day. He LOVES it!!

He only played in it for about 20 minutes but he was worn out. He slept from 6:15pm til 5am!! We might be swimming every evening from now on. ;)

Our SWEET little Angel!

I walked into daycare yesterday afternoon and the teacher said, "I have the cutest picture for you!" I was in total shock when she handed it to me. What a proud moment!!

They always tell me how sweet he is, I guess he decided to show the REAL Jake yesterday. They continued to tell me how sweet he is and that they wanted to take him home with them. OBVIOUSLY they weren't talking about the same kid as the one in this picture!!

Yall are all right, he does look and act exactly like his daddy!
