Ode To Jakey

Happy Birthday Jakey

Jacob Michael

Leo

August 18th is Jacob's birthday. He is turning four years old, and has a ton of energy. Jacob loves playing guys - Spiderman, GI Joe, Superman, Batman, whatever he can get his hands on. He loves playing sports, and swimming. Jacob will try anything and loves helping daddy "work"!

Jacob is anxiously awaiting pre-school, and does really well with counting. We are working on writing his name and practicing letters. Jakey is a little sweetheart, and a bit metro-sexual at times. He has to "get ready" every morning, which includes doing his hair, brushing his teeth, putting deoderant on, and he even tries to put in contacts just like daddy. He often comes downstairs smelling like daddy too, he has learned how to spray the cologne.

I can hardly believe he is turning 4. Seems like yesterday we were bringing him home to meet Justin.

On The Move........

Madison decided this week she was tired of sitting still. First when we went to get her out of bed one morning, she was sitting up waiting for us. We have never seen her sit up from when she was laying down.

So then this morning, I put her on the floor and noticed she has started crawling as well. She kind of drags one leg, and crawls on the other knee. Hey, whatever works. It was kind of funny because she has been looking like she was gonna start crawling for a while now, but never got the coordination to get it done. Well today, Josh left out of town for three weeks for work, and it figures that today is the day she picked to make it happen!!!
