He's Almost There!!!

10 Months Old!

Can you believe Jakobe is 10 months old? Crazy! Our boy weighs 16 lbs. 14 oz. Yes, he lost weight from 9 months. Probably because he was sick for over a week with the Roto Virus and had it coming out both ends. Jakobe started on 2% milk on Friday and is devouring it. He drank an entire gallon of milk in 2 days. He'll put on that weight in no time at this pace. Jakobe is babbling more and more. He will have conversations with us. We are working on mama, dada, and touchdown. He says mama and dada often but we still aren't fully convinced that he means it. He is eating 3rd foods and has started on a few finger foods. He is cruising like crazy and can stand for up to a minute on his own. He can walk behind a walker. He is still sleeping through the night!!! I don't know how David and I survived for 9 months waking up every 2-3 hours?! He has also hit the stranger stage. He will start to cry and turn into David or I (who ever is holding him) and wrap his arms around us tightly. He still gives hugs and kisses. (I hope that never stops). We will say, "Can I have a hug?" He'll wrap his arms around us. Then, "Can I have a kiss?" He'll put his lips against ours. It's super cute. It's one of my favorite things that he does. He now has is very own play room. David and I turned our spare bedroom into a play room for Jakobe. He loves it! Happy Thanksgiving! We can't wait to see everyone!

Say What?

All Smiles at 9 1/2 Months!!!

GUESS WHAT???????

JAKOBE IS FINALLY SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!!!!!!!! I never thought this day would come! It did take 9 months for him to sleep through the night and now that he does I have never loved sleep so much before. Jakobe goes to bed around 8pm and I have to wake him up at 6am. He sleeps all the way through. Not waking up to eat or anything. Oh it's so great!

Happy Halloween!

Sorry for all the sad faces in these pictures..... Jakobe was sick and not feeling well at all. Mean ol' mom still took him out trick-or-treating. Is there any more in there? Here is all of Jakobe's 'candy' he got. People handed out baby food, diapers, and toys instead of candy. Thank you so much everyone for all of Jakobe's goodies! Grandma Tara and Grandpa Mark.
