Trip to Nonna & Pops


I downloaded all the pictures from my camera to my laptop and now my laptop is "in service" and I may not get it back. I still have pictures from the Easter Egg hunt that I want to post.
So, if I do get all my files back, I will be posting out of order.
But for now, this past weekend, Jacob is stayed at his Nonna & Pop's house in Mississippi. (Lance & I went to Atlanta and to the Talladega race)
My mom sent pictures so I can see how much fun he had.

Jacob loves tractors - as soon as he gets to Pop's house, he runs to the garage door to say "get out the tractor, Pop"


Jacob is sitting on it, trying to start it I imagine

Jacob showing that he can drive a "tractor" as well

When it was time to come inside, Jacob didn't like that very well. So he threw a little fit and threw himself up against the door to try and make his point.

And the end of the day, Jacob playing after his bath

Spring Time

So, it's spring time. Easter Weekend ....
I think of flowers and picnics. Sundresses and Sandles. Plaid shorts and polo tops.
But, not this Easter.
We woke up Saturday morning before Easter in Gloucester, VA to about 6 inches of snow on the ground. It was really awesome (except they canceled the races because of the snow).
This was Jacob's first snow.
He was excited at first and started picking it up, then he fell down it and he didn't want to have anything else to do with the snow. He came running to me to the sidewalk, so he could get out of the snow.
We saw the Easter Bunny riding a 4-wheeler through the snow on the side of the highway - I really wish I had my camera out for that, it was hilarious.

Jacob and Daddy in their first snow.

Running

I've been trying to get a picture of Jacob as he is running.
It is so funny to watch him - although we are hoping he doesn't end up like me and run funny for his entire life.
He puts his hands behind his back when he's running.
This isn't the best picture, but it's the only one I've been able to get so far.

Sophie's 1st Birthday

After leaving the watermelon patch on March 3rd, Jacob and I went to celebrate our friend Sophie's 1st Birthday. Sophie is 3 weeks younger than Jacob.
They had a really great time playing together.
Her party was princess themed and she looked so cute in her crown.

She didn't like the cake part of the party - I think it was naptime

Finally

Okay, I'm finally posting again. I have a lot of catching up to do, so this may be out of order and some really old pictures, but I want to get them on here.

On March 3rd (told you it was really old), the watermelon patch had a fashion show, so I took Jacob & Sophia there for the day for the show and to play.
Here are a few pictures.

Jacob decided to take a break

We're having a Girl

We had an ultrasound on 3/29/07. Lance & I looked and thought we saw a little boy part and she said - no that's a foot, a really big foot.

Then she confirmed that

WE ARE HAVING A BABY GIRL

Everyone is so excited. Jacob's going to be a great big brother to a little sister.

He's already learning. Last thursday, he gave Sophia a black eye. I think he finally realized that he's big enough now that he doesn't have to sit around while she pushes him around.



She was such the little ham during the ultrasound, turning for us, opening her legs, waving at the camera.




Here she is waving at the camera




This ones really hard to tell anything other than it confirmed she is a girl - on the right is her butt.

Still Here

Sorry everyone that I haven't posted recently.
I was in Vegas for a week with work - Melynda came and stayed with me for 3 days. I forgot my camera, so I don't have any pictures from that.
Then my computer crashed this past weekend - everything is fine now.
I haven't even taken any pictures of Jacob recently, everytime I get the camera out he wants to play with it.
We are leaving on Good Friday to go to Virginia for 5 days (can't wait to see everyone), so I will be taking lots of pictures there.
