I Got a Pony For Christmas!

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!!

Merry Christmas

Officially a Walker as of December 10th

Well, no more 2 steps here and 11 steps there. Monday Jacob just took off and has been walking everywhere.

No Way.. I Don't Care if You are Santa!!

Friday evening we went downtown Beaufort for "A Night on the Town". For this event, the shops all stay open late and there is singing and cookies and food booths and all sorts of things going on. We also had to go see
Santa since this was Jacob's first Christmas! Not only did Jacob scream and cry when Santa held him but apparently his behavior was so entertaining it ended up on the front page of the Beaufort newspaper the next morning!! Our little Star!!

Jacob is Getting into the Christmas Spirit!!

I'm not sure if he is laughing because he is excited or because we actually bought a 3-foot tall tree that was only $9.97?!?
Jacob helped untangle (or tangle) the lights!
Not bad for $10.00. At least Jake can't pull it over on himself!!

Baby Mowhawk

It Must Be Comfy

We went on a walk and used Jacob's Kelty Tour child carrier
and it must be quite the ride because he was asleep about 3/4 the way through the walk. That is pretty impressive considering he has never fallen asleep in his stroller.

What a Mess!!

Da Da Hide and Seek Video

We got a good deal on a camcorder this morning so we had to try it out. I thought it would be neat if people got to see some video too. So press Play and enjoy!!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

We've Had an Elvis Sighting!!

Uhhh Huhhhh!!

(even complete with hairbrush microphone)

Jake's First Day Hike

We went down to Hilton Head Island Friday and visited Pinckney Island Wildlife Refuge. It was a beautiful day and we had a great hike around. I had no idea there were that many beautiful ponds out there. It was definately worth seeing.

Look Who's 9 Months Old

Well, 9 months has been a big one for us. Jacob took his first step November 1st and got his 4th tooth on November 6th. Something new every time we turn around!!

Happy Halloween!!

Jake's up and about!!!

Instead of doing lap after lap around the coffee table, Jacob can go all over with his walker!!
