So I need to finally start putting photos on the blog. Since I have my new computer (yippee!) and it is so much easier to use, I should be able to post more. Not to mention it is much faster than my 10 year old old laptop. This first photo is of Sophia, James and Kara standing in front of our tomato plant. The plant is still giving us sweet juicy tomatoes and is now more than twice the size that it is in the picture. I think it is going to take over the whole deck! For those of you who do not know Kara, let me introduce her. Kara has watched the kids since we had kids. She was Sophia's first babysitter, James' first babysitter, and now Jacob's first babysitter. She came twice a week this past summer and we love her. Hopefully next summer she can some three days a week. The kids have a great time with her and she helped us a LOT this summer.
This is a picture of Jacob around 2 months old. James loves to kiss on him and here he is kissing on his feet. James has become very affectionate with Jacob.
Okay so Jacob looks really goofy here but this is a photo of all three playing together.
Can you feel the love?Since these pictures, Jacob has grown a lot. He is getting close to 15 pounds and is definitely the baby in the family. He smiles all the time (started smiling around 4 weeks) and blows raspberries too. He will even imitate raspberries. He is starting to poop more than once a week but still doesn't sleep super great during the day. He did nap for three hours in the bouncer today but forget about it in the bed. 45 minutes is the most he will do in his bed during the day. At night he will sleep for 11-12 hours and wake up once for a business feeding. He is holding his head up well and meets his hands at midline. He is starting to try to reach for items and LOVEs this (kind of ugly) red bird Carol got him. For the past 2-3 weeks he has been drooling up a storm. Way earlier drooling than the other kids. He has crazy hair (must be a male trait in our household) and his eyes are still blue.
