Coming....
Going...Halloween 2007
Listen
Jacob ran away before I could finish dressing him for bed and he thought it was soooo funny that he ran around that way for 10 minutes!
Jacob's first walk to the mailbox with Daddy.
What a climber!
This is Jacob's car bucket, evidently it is multi-functional.
Fun with food.
Posing in the cute outfit Grandma bought for him.
Jacob is quite the thrower! Watch out big leagues...here he comes!
Ladies Man
Playing in his tent - I love that his hair gets all staticy (is that a word?)!
Jacob LOVES raisins - he snuck up on the bar when I wasn't looking one day and luckily I had the camera when I realized what he was doing.
Jacob won "King" at our city's baby contest this year. He just wanted to play with the hat.
Playing with cars.
Priceless!
Yummy peanut butter!!!! (Thank goodness for bibs!)
August '07 out on our deck.
This summer I made popsicles out of fruit and yogurt and Jacob had one almost every day.
More "who who" boots.
Riding a horse (okay it's a pony) for the first time at our county's fair this summer.
Shane and Jacob in Yellowstone Nat'l Park.
The things that Jacob loved the most about our trip to Yellowstone were throwing rocks in the river and all of the buffalo statues in West Yellowstone.
Hiking the lower falls in Yellowstone.
We took a picture at this exact place 10 years ago when we went to Yellowstone for our honeymoon. It was fun to update it with Jacob there.
Jacob said "pretty flowers!"
Jacob and his "big boy bed" - I was soo worried about changing him out of the crib, but he was soo excited and he slept the whole night the first night in his bed!
Spaghetti face :)
Two of Jacob's favorite things - his monkey "jammies" and his "who who boots" (they are owl rain boots).
Jacob could swing for hours!
This is a truck that Shane played with when he was a little boy and it's one of Jacob's favorites.
Trying out daddy's basketball shoes - Jake loves shoes!!!
One of Jacob's favorite places to play peek-a-boo - behind the couch.
“Come on Momma” - Jake has been hiding in the closets and then he'll come out and smile and say “Come on Momma” and when I get there, he laughs and closes the door.
No photos please!
Thanks, Grandma, for the cute moose shirt!
I thought it would be smart to put all of the balls in the storage bench that Jacob stands on to play foosball - until he took then all out and threw them on the table.

Jacob has always been really good at posing for the camera...what a cutie!
Jake and his first birthday cake...he didn't like his hands all messy and he kept holding them out to me to wash.
Jake "reading" on his first birthday. He would look at each page and jabber something and then turn the page.
I made Jake a drawer full of things that he could play with in the kitchen.
YEEEE HAAAAW!
He LOVED these beads so much that he carried them around with him for months after the tree was taken down!
Jake's second Halloween - a week after his first birthday.

Green River watermelons make good balls.
Jake's first corn cob - he LOVED it!
I filled a drawer in the kitchen with measuring cups and stuff for Jacob to play with while I cook - he had another use for it.
We went to see "Thomas the Tank Engine" at the Heber Valley Railroad. Jacob talked about if forever afterwards and he still loves Thomas.
