Decorating the Christmas Tree!

Jake has REALLY gotten into the Christmas Spirit early this year! He got these Christmas PJs from Di and Pops, and he wanted to wear them the first night he got them! Here we are decorating the Christmas Tree...

He had so much fun decorating!

*************Pics in front of the tree...************

I actually got him to agree to sit in the rocking chair in front of the tree and smile! Must be because he knows "Eddie" the Elf on the Shelf is watching!!!!

He had to turn around again to take a look at the tree! He was so in awe!

My Sweet Boy!

*******Jacob meets his new neighbor, Ava *******

Today, Jake and I went to lunch with our neighbors, LauraLee and Ava. We went to their house before we went to eat, and Jake got his first look at Ava...up close. At first, he had to squat down and look at her.....

She is not a fan of her carrier, so she gets pretty mad when mommy puts her in it...Jake figured he would try to rock her in the carrier to stop her crying....

I guess he figured it didnt work rocking her from the foot, so he tried from the head of the carrier....not too successful in that attempt either, though!

************Trick -or -Treating*********

Here is my little lion....He really was so good about wearing his costume!
We had Jake and Micah in the wagon and took them door to door to trick or treat...they had so much fun!

Here is Micah

And the little lion again!

*****************The Pumpkin Patch*******************

Jake and Di in the car on the way to the Pumpkin Patch
He had no problems diving right in and picking out the pumpkins he wanted to take home!

He found the one that was just his size!

****************The Family******************

AAAHHHHH Yes, the joys of trying to get a family picture....... Attempt #1 - Mommy and Jake
Attempt #2 - Daddy, Mommy, Jake.....Not so much luck here with the two boys!

Attempt#3 - Daddy, Mommy, Jake...Well, maybe tickling him will get him to smile!

Attempt #4 - Well, at least Mommy and Daddy are looking at the camera and smiling!

The Pumpkin Decorating!

I decided that I would let Jake decorate his little pumpkins today since he cannot carve his. He had a great time with it! We still have 2 more to decorate too!

Mommy came home and decided to carve her own Pumpkin...I am pretty impressed with myself if I am being honest!

***********Dancing to Imagination Movers**************

***********Happy Tuesday Morning!!*************

Here is Jake this morning eating his Donut Holes and Watching Handy Manny.

He is WAYYYYYY too wrapped up in this show to pose at the moment! HAHAHAHA!!!

************The Precious Pumpkin************

I figured that since I was on a roll today with the camera, I would dress Jake in his Pumpkin outfit Di and Pops got for him. He was not so crazy about the idea of smiling for these pictures, because he was trying to watch Beverly Hills Chihuahua. But, he was still a precious pumpkin!

We LOVE Brushing Our Teeth Too!

We brush our teeth with every bathtime...and with his new electric toothbrush...its ALWAYS fun!

OOPS! Water in the face! HAHAHAHA

***********THE "TUB DO"*************

This is our new hair do that we always have to fix now when we are in the tub...I like to call it Jake's "TUB DO"

.........................The Halloween Lion..................

Here is our little Halloween Lion! I figured I better get pics of him in the costume while I had the chance....He LOVE the IDEA of being a lion for Halloween....He just HATES the costume! HAHAHA

And, Yes...I had to let him eat the cookie in the costume in order for him to agree to put it on for longer than 3 second! Hey, Whatever works!!!
