I Heart Jacob

Today is a Tuesday and it has become my most crazy day. First was home school, then physical therapy, then counseling, then carpools to get siblings, then Cub Scouts.

When Jacob was finished with his physical therapy exercises and stretches, he went to his locker and pulled his purple lightsaber out of his bag. He then started twirling it around the gym like the JediFighter that he is. He cracks me up!!!

I'm just feeling LOTS of LOVE for my Jacob. He has always been so full of surprises. I usually like predictable things. Jake has always challenged me on that. I can always plan on Jacob surprising me by his creativity, character, cuteness, or charm. I am SOOOO supposed to be sleeping right now, but here's my little walk down memory lane.


Jacob has always loved the sand at the beach. I look forward to spending time with the kids at the beach this summer. It's a total pain to get packed up and set up on the beach, but once there it's like heaven - sheer bliss.


Jacob is modeling his BRAND NEW pair of pajamas covered in ashes and soot. Baby Jayson has been trying to get into our fireplace throughout the holidays. I was just telling Jacob that he tried to climb up the chimney as a baby just like Jayson is doing now. He thought the story was hilarious. I can't begin to tell you how black our tub was when these boys were done. Jake encouraged James to get in on the action too.


By the way, the black stains NEVER came out.


Sporting his carefree smile - full grin, eyes shut.



Train building is a serious venture (especially if you are playing with James). We just pulled these trains out last night for family time. But Jacob likes to actually BE the character, not just play with them. So he's decked out as Bob the Builder just in case something needs to be fixed on the tracks.


OH those rosy cheeks!!! This dumb felt costume that I got at Albertsons on clearance became a well loved piece of apparel.



Jake loves it when Jon starts a project. He loves working with real tools.


Here are my SuperHeros!!!


One of Jacob's MOST favorite dress-ups was taking his shirt off and putting his underwear on his head. Helped that James would laugh uncontrollably every time he did.


This is Jake's self made Harry Potter costume. You have to wear a BYU football jersey backwards with sunglasses minus the glass.

Finally, we took our little Harry to see the big movie. He had watched the first two movies a million times. He wore his whole outfit and fell asleep within the first 5 minutes of the film - TOTALLY JACOB!!!!
