kumon party

Last night we went to my parents kumon party...Jake was the entertainment of the night. He was so social! He would have stayed all night long.

Hanukkah with the Schwartz family

Lily wanted Jake to have a tea party with her new dishes.



Thanks again for everything!

holiday moments

Jake is a very loved little boy. Everyone loves to spoil him. I can't complain really. Here are a few pictures from my mom's house.

time to get messy

At Lily's Hanukkah party there was a cookie decorating table, and let me tell you this was the hit of the party. Jake was eating the frosting and sprinkles off the spoon, they naever even had a chance of making it to the cookie. Oh and only real man can pull off a pink bib!

hanukkah party at Lily's

We kicked off our holiday party season with Lily's Hanukkah party. Good times and food were had by all. Jake got a really cool new toolbench in the gift exchange. To bad it is not so easy to put together.

visiting with Brady and Logan

We hung out with Brady and baby Logan last week, Jake has a blast playing with all of Brady's new presents.

Wishful thinking....

out for a walk

Yes you read that correctly...the dogs have needed to go for a walk for while. They are been getting in to more mischieve which is a sign they have energy to burn. We just walked down to the end of the street and got a few looks from neighbors on Jake's winter stroller.

let it snow!

family pictures

It is so much easier to taken pictures when we are holding Jake, and he can not run away. I was happy how theses turned out this morning.

hey mom look at me

Updating my blog is fun:) Please excuse the messy desk.

train table fun

Who said playing you had to play with the table part to have fun:)

holiday card pictures

I took Jake this afternoon for his 18...well 19 month pictures. My goal was to get some pictures for holiday cards. It was so hard to pick my favorites and I bought way to many. I know that is hard to believe that I bought to many:) Oh well... He did better than I thought at staying still. Next week we are going to have a family picture taken. Here a few of my favorites from today.

gift exchange

Today was our play group gift exchange. It was so fun to see everyone open their gifts.

Brady and Lily


Marianna surprised Jake with a little people race track. This is sure to be hours of fun! Thanks Marianna!

snow

Jake loves to be outside he asks all the time to go out. So this afternoon I bundled him up and out we went. He loved being out there, but found it very hard to move in all of his snow gear. He would only walk if he could hold my hand. I was the one who was ready to go inside.
