Big Things Happening

For us anyway...

Josh learned to tie his shoes! I know it seems like something he should have known how to do in Kindergarten but he just couldn't get it. He has also figured out how to multiply and is reading above his grade level.

Jacob has started giving kisses, waving goodbye, army crawling and is sitting up really well. Pretty soon he'll have his first tooth and be able to crawl. It's going by so quickly!

Seth loves to ride his bike and I don't think it will be long before we can remove the training wheels. He just loves being outside, rain or shine!

And the winner is...

Here's the picture I ended up sending in. It's not actually any of the ones you voted on. I got a better shot of him yesterday and went with that one....

I don't know what our chances are but it's worth a try, right? Did any of you enter your beautiful babies??

You gotta help me pick!!

I know every mama thinks her kids are cute but that's our job, right? So I want to enter Jacob in the Beautiful Baby Contest on Regis and Kelly. I took some shots of him today but can't decide which one to go with. Will you please leave a comment and vote? Yes, that means even those of you who don't normally comment here (Amy, Tracy, Tina B) I know you're reading :o)

I really want to capture his curly hair and beautiful blue eyes. So see what you think...

1. Falling over but looking cute

2. Dazed and Confused

3. I'm right here Mama

4. Looking Good

5. Goofy Grin

6. Being silly

7. Just hanging out

So what do you think? Are any of them good enough or should I take some more??

So much going on...

The cutest little reindeer I've ever seen...

Wow, look what I got Mama...

Seth didn't want to get up on Christmas morning. Doesn't he look thrilled?

The wrapping paper was the best part for Jacob...

Checking out all the cool stocking stuff...

This is what his face looked like when he saw our new "family" DS...

Still looks real thrilled to be up early on Christmas morning, huh?

I love Christmas!
