Jacob Birthday Party!

This year Jacob wanted a Skate Party! We all were SO excited to go skating and have a good time! Matt and Ashlin got Jacob roller skates for his birthday! Jacob had been asking for skates for weeks, so he was very happy to get them! Jacob and I tie-dyed shirts for everyone as thank-you gifts and also to be able to look out on the rink and see who was a guest at our party. We also made goodie-bags filled with horns, fake tattoo's, pencils, and fake mustaches. I made TV Dinner cupcakes that looked like Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes, and Peas and Carrots. We all had a lot of fun and Jacob loved every minute!

Jacob's new roller skates!

Thanks Aunt Ashy!

Happy 7th Birthday Jacob!!

Jacob turned 7 on the 13th of November! He had an awesome day! First he got an electric Razor Scooter from Grandpa Tom and Grandma Carol! He was SO excited to ride his new scooter that he went out that night to test it out- I had a little fun on it too! Then Jerron and I took Jacob to the restaurant of his choice, IHOP. Jacob got Funny Face pancakes and the waitresses sang Happy Birthday to him. What's even more funny is that I got Jacob a fake beard and he wore it the whole time we were at IHOP! From there we went to the movies and saw " A Christmas Carol " in 3-D. We all had so much fun!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Halloween 2009 was a great one! When I asked Jacob what he wanted to be he said "Nothing cute, anything with Death will be fine." My idea for Star Wars characters was out the window at that point! So Jacob decided to be Hell's Gate Keeper, and Ethan was a police man (just like his daddy). They look great!

Of course Ethan had to throw one last fit before we left!

Our new kitten

For Jerron's birthday I got him a kitten. It took us 3 days, but we finally chose a name...Bailey. He is so sweet! The best part is that Bailey gets along with Ethan and Jacob! Ethan loves to chase Bailey all through the apartment, I don't think Bailey likes it as much as Ethan does!

McDonalds

Ethan is loving McDonald's just as much as Jacob does! Believe it or not, but Ethan eats an entire Happy Meal to himself! Once a week Jerron and I try to treat the kids to their favorite meal, chicken nuggets and french fries.

Fun with play-dough!

Connor and Ethan had a great time playing with play-dough! They loved to mash it in between their fingers and cut shapes out. A couple times Carol and I had to stop Connor and Ethan from eating it and mushing colors together. It was so much fun watching them discover something new!

Summer Days

A couple of weeks ago the temperature was well into the 90's and when it's that hot there's nothing else better than taking a dip in the pool! Grandma is teaching Ethan to kick and blow bubbles in the water. Then we finished out the day with home-made snow cones ~ Yummy!
