10 months old!

Jacob turned 10 months old yesterday! He (and I) had a great week despite returning to work full time and having Ted away for two days. It was good to be back with my friends and to have a change of pace from the two days per week I've been putting in. Jacob is getting so big... eating everything thanks to his Aunt Dawn (I let him try things, too!). This week he had some chicken, pizza, more grilled cheese, cream of wheat, spatzel (we got take out from Countryman's Pleasure!), and I'm sure some other things I can't recall at the moment. He was on a good schedule all week and slept the most he's ever slept last night. He was asleep at 7:30 and didn't make a peep until 3:30, but went back to sleep with me until almost 8:00! Not too bad, huh!?! He has been having a few wake ups about an hour after going to bed, but not last night. He must of played hard yesterday (thanks Aunt Dawn!). He's up to and seems to be holding at 7 teeth, 4 top and 3 bottom. I keep looking for the other bottom tooth to balance him out but there is no sign of it yet (don't they come in twos?). He's still not crawling but just today pushed himself forward (rather than backward!) a couple of times while on his belly. He's so close- hopefully soon he will be on the move! He is moving around some while sitting. He uses one leg to push himself around, basically going in a circle. And he does like to hold your fingers now and walk around. But sledding with his Dada remains his his favorite mode of transportation at the moment.

SNOW!

Snow, snow, and more snow! Jacob is liking the snow almost as much as Pili.

2010!

Well the year my baby was born has come to an end. What an eventful year it was. I'm looking forward to 2010 and crawling, walking, talking, 1st birthday parties.... and all the other wonderful things that I'm sure will come our way. Once again I say, I can't believe all that is going on!!! Jacob's going to be 10 months old next week! Unfortunately he's already broken his New Year's resolution to sleep through the night... only lasted one night... 8pm to 6am. I guess it's a little taste of what's to come in the future. Although I do enjoy getting to snuggle with him in the middle of the night, and eventually that will come to an end. Now for my resolution... so many choices, what to pick?

It's snowing out. We may try going for a snowshoe this morning. I'm going to let Ted carry the 24 pound bundle on his back up our steep back hill!

HAPPY 2010!

Happy New Year!

We just came in from a wonderful walk. The temp out is so nice and we got an inch or two making the trees beautiful. It was nice enough to work on brushing some hair out of Pili without wearing gloves!
We took a quick trip to West Leb with my mom and Gram today. We has a great lunch a Panera Bread. Jacob was a very good boy. We don't have much planned for tonight. Ted was going to bring home a piece of tuna from Sushi Yoshi and I just made some rice cone sushi (I forget what it's really called). I'm sure it won't be close to what Motoko makes in the summer. Oh well, I tried!
Happy 2010 Everyone!

I like my new wheels!

The boy with many hats.

So many new toys! I must of been really good!
