Jacobi's First Trip North

First, a picture of my super cool husband--shhhhh, don't tell him or he may just decide to delete it. :P


We went to WI last weekend for the first time since Jacobi was born. He did WONDERFUL on the 10 1/2 hour trip Friday night (we drove through the night) and again during the day on Tuesday...although that was almost 13 hours with a few breaks and more traffic! We saw a lot of people in a short amount of time and had a very good trip. Jacobi got to play with his cousins Elliot & Liam as well as several 2nd cousins or something, maybe once removed--however that works. :P Here are a few pictures for fun.

Jacobi & Grandma Becky
Dressed for Sunday meeting--figure he will probably not wear this shirt again, so might as well get a picture. It's too warm for long sleeves here!
Jacobi & Grandpa Del
Ryan's birthday pie made by his mom. Rhubarb Strawberry--mmmmm!

May Happenings

It's been awhile since I updated and I'm not sure where to start. Oh, okay--Jacobi's 6 month check-up would be a good place! He weighed 20 1/2 pounds on Monday and was 30 inches long! He is still in the 75th-90th for weight but getting further off the chart for height every time. The above picture is of him with his friend Alligator who he just thinks is hilarious. When you press its foot, it giggles uncontrollably and Jacobi loves that...plus, it giggles even if you chew on its foot...or tail...or nose... :P


We've had lots of company lately. Ryan's grandparents were here on their way to TX last week; my mom, sister (Tasha) and nephew Kingston were here last weekend; and Ryan's grandparents were here for a couple of days this week on their way back home! It was great to have family here! It was also nice to celebrate Mom's birthday with her when they got here Friday night and Mother's Day on Sunday! I thoroughly enjoyed my first Mother's Day and am so thankful to be Jacobi's Mama!
