Baby on the go...

Jacob is now able to crawl and can pull himself up! He can also sit up on his own after he's been on his stomach. The other day we witnessed his first successful attempt to pull himself up...I think he was more surprised than we were! He used the stereo to stand up :)

Jacob can also do some nice YOGA poses, like 'downward dog' He will smile back at us while he's doing it too. :) I told Randy maybe he'll be a gymnast...ha,ha why are there so many negative stereo types about male gymnasts?? Randy got some good pictures of him yesterday, they are my favorite yet...I'll have to post some of them. Jacob just keeps getting more and more independent...I can't believe he will be a year old in a few weeks! Which also means uncle Jon is coming home from his mission in a few weeks too! Woo hoo! I love Jon so much, he's going to have so much fun getting to know his 3 nephews. I can't wait for June 23 to come!
Here are Jacob's latest pictures...










We have been keeping busy trying to get our garden/yard ready. We want to plant some veggies this year...so with this dry soil...wish us luck! We have also been doing some work in the house. We got our bedroom painted this week...and when I say "we" I mean Randy painted our bedroom! Jacob didn't really let me do anything that day (of course!) So I helped Randy tape some of the room, and he pretty much did it all himself! It turned out nice, I love it! I feel like it's more "our" room now, instead of just blank, plain, white walls. We are moving on to the bathrooms next...we have decided to finally get rid of the yellow-colored bathroom! I don't know what the previous owners were thinking when they painted it yellow? And then on to the TV room downstairs, that will be the most work...but we're looking forward to some color down there too! Once we have things finished I'll have to post some before and after pictures...
