Learning to read at 11 months!!

Jake's 11 months old! He still weighs almost 24 pounds, but he has gotten much longer! He also now has 2 teeth that he likes to show the world!! He is a true goof ball now!

Anna's new thing before she tortures her brother is..."Mommy take a picture"

Ahh, the joys of being able to TRASH my mommy's house!

Anna got a big doll house for christmas from Jake...they both love it!

I brought the kids to my parents house alone, Mike was VERY sick...we passed it on to him, oops! It was a fun and exhausting day, but the kids did really well!

Merry Christmas!

Our church christmas program was a lot of fun! Jake was introduced (he wiggled everywhere) and Anna sang songs with the 2-3 year olds.

playing together in the tent

Jake's 10 months old! He is getting too daring, pulling up on things and crawling everywhere!

Jake's first big boy hair cut...he doesn't look like a baby anymore!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

He loves the Johnny Jump-Up, and he needs a hair cut really bad!

As soon as it started snowing on Wednesday, Anna started begging to go outside and build snowmen! She even let herself out of the house without me knowing it!! YIKES! She played in the backyard for almost an hour!!

Winter bliss! Jake wasn't too sure what to think and I couldn't get Anna back in the house!!

Jake thinks that bath time is hillarious!

How come I can't get pictures like this everytime?


What an awesome November day!

He's on the move!
