We had a wonderful Easter this year with our Jakey and having both families in one place! We ate a delicious lunch, played pictionary and volleyball. We are so thankful for this holiday to celebrate Jesus. I love this time of year!

Absolute Sweetness!

I never want to forget this most precious image. I've never seen anything more peaceful or innocent.

Daddy reading to Jake... sweet. He now reads to him daily and insisted that it become routine. :)

"Alright, Dad, you're losing me!"








First rice cereal! He did great. (4/7 - 3mos 4days old) Against the Dr's advice at his 2 month checkup. ;-)

Blue eyes! He's an expert at holding that head up.

Sweet smile!

Our sweetness is now well over 14lbs! He's getting huge and definitely bringing MOOSE back! :) I just leave him in a diaper and nothing else at home now b/c I just can't get enough of his rolls! It is so fun to see him thriving and getting chunky! Love it!

It's been a busy week and flown by! We've done 3 month pics, gone to a thyroid dr appointment, gone to Jeremy's work and eaten lunch with him, gone to my old work, and tomorrow we're going Easter dress shopping! Jake already has an easter outfit so he's just along for the ride! :)

3 Months!!

These 2 were sooo adorable!

Notice his little bunny tail? He's reading the book 'Bunnies are for Kissing' that we're giving him in his Easter Basket. :)

Shy Boy! :)




No explanation needed. Just too cute!

Today Jake got his 3 month pics done at Picture People. There are some really sweet ones!!

He's such a good baby! He was tired and hungry but did really well! Can't wait to go back and get more!
------------------------------------------------------------
On a different note: Wish me luck and please keep me in your prayers. I meet with my new thyroid surgeon on Wed. My old Dr moved to Austin, and now that Jake is three months old I am supposed to get moving on scheduling my surgery. Dreading being away from Jake and all that comes with surgery!

Birthday Weekend...and MORE bluebonnets!

What a weekend! Friday was my 27th birthday. It started out with a visit from my in-laws that morning, and a shopping trip to Rice Village with some friends that afternoon. Then, I met Jeremy and we went to the mall and then to Cheesecake factory for dinner and we ate outside on the patio. When we got home he gave me my beautifully wrapped presents! He is a much better 'wrapper' than me! My presents are below...and he even tape recorded a sweet message from him and Jake on my new videocamera while I was out with the girls on Thursday night! I LOVE my boys...they are the best!

so pretty! He picked the paper and everythng!

videocamera, case, twilight dvd, and a sweet card!

Saturday we went to Trey's 2nd B-Day Party in Spring, Then my friend Linda's Baby shower in Cypress, and then Noah's 2nd B-Day party in Friendswood. What a day! I think we left the house around 10am and didn't get home until about 8pm. Jake was wonderful the whole time and went right to bed when we got home.

Sunday we went to church and then out to Independence, TX. I had heard about the beautiful bluebonnets there. We went to Old Baylor Park with my mom, dad, and Matt. After bluebonnet pics we went into Brenham and ate at Purcell's. It was a family style country buffet and was delicious!! We had a great day and it was a fun way to celebrate my birthday with my family!
Seeing the beautiful scenery after a morning of Worship...what a great day of taking in God's beautiful creation. The rolling hills, rivers, and native flowers make you want to move a little further out... we live in a beautiful state!

Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush! Beautiful.

My lil Texan! :)

The sweetest grin

My sweethearts

Jakey was worn out on the way home!!!

Oh, and Jeremy had a basketball game today, but he told his friends he'd be "frolicking in the bluebonnets with his son." Haha!!

Jake and I will rest good tomorrow! Hope everyone had a great weekend also, and that it was a little less eventful and busy than our's! ;-)

Poor, Poor Pitiful...Jake!

Jake feels more than sorry for himself when he gets sad. I seriously think it's the cutest thing I've ever seen. Is it bad that I ignore him for a second to take pics? :)

Happy Friday!! And, by the way, he is 3 MONTHS OLD TODAY!! I think that is crazy!

Girly Man?

Does this long, bigfoot, deep-voiced, couch potato "chick magnet" look like a girly man to you?


Probably not. But there's more to it than meets the eye. We have noticed several things that we crack up about, since Jake is a boy and all!

Here we go.....

1.) PINK BOTTLE!

2.) Big closet FILLED with clothes.

3.) TONS of SHOES! about 25 pairs to be exact. There are more that aren't pictured.

4.) DISNEY PRINCESS WIPES!

Now- my excuses for all of his girly things!

1.) The pink bottle was part of a fabulous deal on a box of bottles. It was the only pink one...the rest were orange, blue, and green.

2.) I LOVE clothes, especially baby clothes. The day I found out he was a boy I got home and started ordering online from Janie and Jack and baby gap! Plus he has family and friends that have completely spoiled him rotten! And, in my defense, he has worn every single one of his 0-3 month outfits more than once! :) Thank you everyone! He's the best dressed baby boy ever.

3.) I LOVE SHOES, more than I love clothes. Period. Jake wears shoes all the time!

4.) The Disney Princess wipes were part of a box of the small packs of huggies wipes. I had no clue what patterns were on the inside. Who cares, anyway? They're wipes!

He's gonna kill me for this when he's older. We LOVE our girly boy. :)

url change!

I have been thinking that it was time to change our url from jeremysgirls...now that Jake is here! I was hesitant as I didn't want an address change to cause us to lose touch with anyone. However, I needed to reinstate Jake's manhood... as he is not a girl! :-)

Thanks for sticking with us... :)
