Wow, it's been forever

So, I've been following everyone else's blogs...and realized that I haven't written one of my own since August!! So much has happened since that time!! Jacob is growing up soo fast, he is 5 months old now! He learns so much everyday, it is so amazing to watch him grow up and learn. It's funny because I never thought I'd be one of those annoying moms that can only talk about their children, but Jacob has become my whole life and I want to share everything about him!!! So, I'm going to share a little bit about him, right now.

Jacob is a big boy..and I do mean big. When he was born, he was 7 lbs 7.8 ozs..AND he was 3 weeks early. Now, he's 5 months...and close to 19 lbs!! He LOVES to eat...he gets that from his daddy!!! When Jacob is eating his bottle-if you try to take it out to burp him....he will SCREAM bloody murder, it is hilarious!! Jacob is eating solid foods 2 times a day...he's made his way all the way through the fruits and now we're working on the vegetables. So far, we haven't found anything that he doesn't like!!

Jacob has learned to do a few things...they might seem simple to some, but to me, they are a huge deal!! He can roll over from his belly to his back, which I might add, he learned at 6 weeks. He is learning how to use his hands and can grasp small toys, necklaces, earings, my hair, etc. He is sleeping in his own room, in his crib, and can most of the time make it all the way through the night (yay!). He likes to play with people...he can stare in your face and laugh and talk to you forever...that's definately his favorite type of play time! He is learning how to sit up..he can support himself on his knees for about 10 seconds...and sometimes if he's laying at an incline he can pull himself almost all the way up.

I really could go on and on about all of the things he does...but I'm sure I've already gone on for too long! :o)

There is more to my life than Jacob....like my husband. We've been married for 1.5 years now, and although there are days where we both could kill each other, we are still very much in love. He makes me happy every day. I still work for Navy Federal...and I like it, although my heart is at home, with a certain little boy.

There is much more that I could say, but it's getting late...and although Jacob can sleep through the night...his idea of morning is 6 a.m, even on the weekends!! So, I better join the rest of the family and hit the sack!

Goodnight!
