Bath Time

I really liked this first picture but for some reason it will only post sideways.. (not sure why)



In this next picture you can see his top two teeth coming in. The one on the left has broken though the skin. Hopefully not too much longer on the other one!!

Playing

We hauled Jacob all over this weekend and he was great of course. So we just had to get him a new toy since he was stuck in the car driving to/from Michigan. He picked out this cute toy and had a blast playing with it when we finally got home from Michigan before falling asleep at 5:30 pm. I guess he was worn out!



We will have pictures up from our visit to Michigan once some of our wonderful friends send us some as we forgot our camera!! We had a blast!!

My Firecracker!

Jacob is non-stop from the time his eyes open in the morning until they close at night. This is a prime example of our days. We have so much fun with my little firecracker!

Kisses

Jacob gave me kisses this week.

I was laying on the floor with him and he climbed up on me, opened his mouth real wide then patted me on the shoulder twice with his mouth.

Awh..... That really melted my heart!!

Allen County Fair

Today we ventured to the Allen County Fair and a great time was had by all. Jacob enjoyed seeing all the animals. Next year (hopefully not Allen County) will be more fun when Jacob is a bit older and can enjoy more things! But this year, he was content watching all the people!!



The Bunnies were his favorite (I think b/c they are the same size as Charlie Cat)

Jacob helped Dad & Mom feed the animals at the Petting Zoo.

Pulling Up

Jacob is now pulling up all the way to his feet. He did it the first time last night when I was laying on the floor with him. He used me to stand up (without me helping) and this morning he has pulled up on the couch several times.

He also has a runny nose and has been sleeping horrible the last few nights. I'm hoping that he will cut these teeth soon as I think they are the culprit of at least the poor sleeping!

9 months

Jacob is 9 months today and a lot has changed since last month...

-He is crawling very well

-He now has 2 teeth

-He can pull up to his knees

-He can go from laying dow to sitting up on his own

-He had a successful experience with table food tonight (mashed potatoes w/ gravy)

Below are his recent pictures that were taken at 8.5 months. We had aimed at getting them done at 6 months but between being sick, traveling, etc. we just got around to it a few weeks ago. (YES grandparents, yours will be in the mail in the next few days)
