Jacob, 5 months old

How is it even possible that my baby, Jacob, is five months old already?! Jake is a hunk and a love and we are so blessed to say the least. His favorite things include his brother & sister. His eyes are glued onto theirs and he just loves having them play with him! Its so nice to have such great help with baby Jake. I can cook dinner and know he is fully entertained with his Jersey siblings.
We started cereal and baby food this month. The doctor was quite surprised that he was content just being breast fed with how big he is. He is lapping it up like he has been eating it forever! I think he was trying to tell me "FINALLY mama!" Ha.
He is rolling over and if he wasn't so heavy, I'm sure he would be crawling. He wants to, but too much weight to move around. I'm just fine with him not crawling. So not ready to baby proof the house. I think soon, we will.

Halloweeen

A VERY fun Halloween for this Jersey family! Wizard of Oz was our theme, well, until the 6 year old said no thank you and independently picked out his skeleton costume.

They had a wonderful time, more candy than one village should have. The big kids got new electric toothbrushes that they paid 20 pieces of candy each for. My attempt to keep their teeth healthy and visits to the dentist to a minimum.

Needless to say, a fun-filled Halloween for this Jersey family.

Fun on the Cool Water 2010

I know. I vowed to do a better job of bloggin', but have seemed to fail. Again! I guess I've been busy chasing three kids and all that goes with it, and something had to go. Unfortunately it was this.
A bit of recap. The kids and I ventured out west for 10 days of pure fun and giggles. My sister lake house cabin was nothing short of beautiful, as the Jersey kids were adventurous on the water with their cousins. It was "awesome" as the Jersey kids now recap their time out there to friends and family. I agree, in spades!
