Playing with the Wolf

Danielle, John and Wolfie came to visit us this weekend. Shenanigans abounded. (Check out Dani's blog for more pics.) Jacob slept most of the time, so there are really only pics of these two. Soon enough we'll get to try to take pics with all four boys - hopefully the babies learn to cooperate!

Fire Marshall Joey to the rescue

My Little Monkey

Thanks, Aunt Rachel/Shae for the Timberlands. Apparently they make the most excellent climbing shoes.

Floor Time

Joey joined Jacob on the floor gym this past Saturday morning, and I think they both had a great time.

It's gotten to the point now that if I'm taking pictures of Jacob, Joey will say, "Mommy, take a picture of ME and my Awesome." (Yes, he calls Jacob "Awesome." It's kind of cute.) Fortunately, that's about the extent of the jealousy so far. And since I always oblige and take pictures of the two of them, Joey doesn't seem to mind.

Time Flies

Believe it or not, Jacob is two months old already. We went in for our check-ups, and he's doing well. He's up to twelve pounds seven ounces and 23 3/4 inches.

I thought I'd steal a little something my sister did with her daughter, and I'm using Joey's sock monkey for scale. (And yes, I mean Joey's - Jacob doesn't have one of his own yet.) I'll post a picture at least through six months with the monkey, so you can see how big he's grown.

In the meantime, guess who had to crawl up in the chair with his "Awesome" while Mommy was taking pictures.

So Happy Together

Great-Grands

We visited with Joey and Jacob's great-grandparents this past Sunday. Grandma just lit up when she saw Jacob, and we barely got him out of the carseat before she grabbed him from us so she could hold them.

Getting to know each other a little better.

Of course there were also some hijinks. Grandpa loves his hats, and Joey happily obliged by putting on at least two at a time.
