Jakes 1st Birthday Party!













We had Jake's 1st birthday party Saturday and it went great! I was worried that we wouldn't have room for everyone but we managed. We had 31 people there to celebrate with us! Jake had a blast and LOVED opening presents and eating his cake. Here are just a few pics...


























Jake got so many gifts that he didn't know what to play with first. I'm packing up some old toys this week to put away for Jaycie. Then after eating his cake (or should I say icing), what better way to wash off all of the cake icing than to put him in his swimming pool! He enjoyed all of the attention being on him for the day. I still can't believe my baby will be 1 year old in two days.

Jaycie is STILL a GIRL!!

We went for our 31 week 3D ultrasound yesterday. I couldn't eat all morning without feeling like I was going to throw up, I guess because I was so nervous that they were going to tell me that it was another boy. So all I had eaten before our 2:30 dr appt was 1 kolache and 2 cheese sticks. We didn't get any ultrasound pictures but we got a video of the whole ultrasound. None of the images were that good but from what we could tell, she is DEFINITELY a GIRL and she appears to look exactly like Jake did. As long as she doesn't have his attitude and temper...I'm good with her looking like Jake! I do think he is pretty cute with bows in his hair. ;)

My unsuccessful attempt at photography!

Yesterday afternoon Jacob and I decided to take Jake outside to play because he LOVES being outside. It was only 100 degrees and I'm 7 months pregnant (fat) so why not?! Jake was all smiles until I got the camera out after him and tried to get some pictures.

Here is the best one that I got...

I told Jacob that Jake was opening his mouth every time I would take the picture and it looked like he was screaming, Jacobs response was "well that's him."


He was right!

My latest craft/sewing project!




Yes, I decided to TRY to sew again! Julie and the boys bought Jaycie the cutest dress the other day and it didn't look like it would be to hard to make so I went to Wal-Mart and bought some fabric. I read on the internet that "pillowcase" dresses take about 30 minutes to make so I decided I would start on it this morning at work. Needless to say...4 HOURS later, it's finally finished. They must have been talking about the amount of time it would take a professional to make one!!


Here is a picture of the one that Julie bought and then the one that I made...


I bought more fabric to make a red bandana dress but I'm over sewing for today!!

Jake LOVES his daddy!

Jacob and Jake play on the floor every afternoon when Jacob gets home from work. Jake loves his daddy!

I took a video of them yesterday and it also shows Jake walking.

I couldn't figure out how to post the video other than to put it on YouTube.

Never a dull moment around our house with these two guys!!

Jakes Playset


Thanks to JuJu and the boys, Jake has a new play set in our backyard. He loves being outside and the boys didn't ever play on it anymore so we moved it to our house for Jake.


PaPa Tim & NahNah came up this past weekend to replace some broken boards, get the monkey bars & swings attached and re-stain it for us. Thank goodness because it's to HOT outside for me!


Then Jacob painted the roof green to match our house and attached the ladders and slides.


Jake LOVES it!!


Thank you to everyone for your help!













Gluclose Test Results

The doctors office called yesterday afternoon and said that the results from my 3 hour test came back normal. Yea!! Good thing because I love CEREAL and not the healthy kind. Captain Crunch is my favorite when I'm pregnant. That's really about the only thing that I crave.
