Random Mobile Uploads

I was going through my phone and realized I had quite a few of recent pictures on there that some may want to see. These are normally the text pictures that we sent to Uncle Ryan in the Air Force but this time I think they might be worth sharing..


Big Boy Undies.. you can't really tell but these are put on over a diaper and shorts. He really doesn't have any interest in using them appropriately

Super Jacob!

Getting a hair cut at Nonna's

1st Bath together

My little baby.. and she's on the move!


Oh poor girl!! Jacob "dressed" Brenna in his PJ's!


We try to go on walks several times a week and she's fallen sleep


Jacob LOVES his vacuums!!


My own little Linus.. he loves his blanket Nonna made him




My little lady!

Random August and BIG BOY BED!


Brenna at 10 months old. She is everywhere .. and really loud! We joke that she is going to be awful as a teenager if today is any indication. She is jabbering really loud all day. Let's just say there is no way to ever lose her. She is crawling and even pulling herself up on some things but not close to walking yet. She also has her first 2 teeth!!


Jacob has been wanting a big boy bed for a long time. We finally decided to convert his bed last week. He is doing very good and doesn't get out at all (knock on wood).


We were a little concerned as Brenna has been getting up at 3am and he loves to "help" get her up in the morning. I was concerned that he would run in her room at 3am. However, the first night she woke up and he was in the big boy bed we heard him yell "Sissy, go back to sleep it's still dark outside". LOL


Jumping for joy over his new bed!


LOVES IT!!



Mommy's big boy!

Choo-Choo

We had a break in the weather last weekend and decided to take advantage of it. We took the kids to a local railroad, The Wabash Frisco and Pacific Railroad, where they have a small train for the kids to ride. Jacob really enjoyed it as one of his favorite new shows is Chuggington.

All aboard and ready to go!

This is how Jacob ended the day.. exhausted!

Brenna at the end of the day!


Fun time had by all and it only took 1 1/2 hours. Perfect timing to fit in a good nap!



Ready or Not.. Preschool Here We Come!!

Over the summer we quickly realized that Jacob really needed to go to preschool. He was loving the interaction with his friends in the neighborhood and kept asking to go to school. At the same time we received an invitation from our school district to participate in a program they offer for 2 1/2 year olds. He started preschool at the beginning of August. We are on week number 3 and he LOVES It!!


Here are pictures from his first day.. it was very rough on mom but Jacob did fantastic.


Sun was in his eyes but he was trying to smile :)



Back pack is almost as big as Jacob is! He picked the back pack himself and calls it "butt man" .. it's quite funny!


At school playing in the sensory box.. he was completely done with pictures by this point and asked me to leave after the first few minutes.
