A Lot of New Things Happening...

This handsome man has had some big things going on lately...On May 15th Wade was ordained a High Priest in our church and called to be the 2nd counselor in the Bishopric. For those that don't know exactly what that means...A high priest is one of the offices of the highest priesthood in our church they are given authority to lead a group. A Bishop is responsible for a ward (a few hundred members). Wade is 1 of his 2 helpers and with that comes a lot of responsibilty and a lot of time from home. Its all volunteer, as are all callings in our church. He is already doing so well and I can already see such a difference in him and in the blessings we have recieved because of his willingness to serve. Keep it up Wade...we love you so much!

The Three Piggy Opera. Jacob had his first School play on May 20th. It was adorable and he did such a great job. He had the opening line, "Welcome to our Kindergarten musical, The Three Piggy Opera. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!" He made my heart melt.

The very next day, we had a ward birthday party that I was in charge of, and Jacob was asked to play a special birthday song in a bell chior. When he was asked, the instuctor thought he was a little older, but said we could give him a shot at it anyways, and he did a great job, just as great as the older kids. He really impressed me with his attitude and willingness to practice so he could stay with the older kids...he is just growing up way too fast.

Another One Bites the Dust...

Almost exactly a week later... tooth #2 is gone. His top 2 teeth are loose as well, he'll be able to fit 4 straws through that gap.

The Tooth Fairy...

The Tooth Fairy arrived at our house Tuesday night because Jacob lost his 1st tooth!



Under the pillow it goes...

When he woke up he found 2 dollars, a note and his tooth...he really didn't want the Tooth Fairy to take it away and she listened.

Easter Morning...

Easter Fun...

The Annual Easter Egg Dye.

This year the weather man said it was going to snow on Easter egg hunt day so we opted for an indoor hunt at Hollywood Connection. It turned out to be pretty fun with face painting, balloon artists, and free rides for the morning. Not bad for free.

Cole was the only one brave enough to get a picture with the Easter Bunny.

Anna's First Year of T-ball...

We weren't really planning on putting Anna in T-ball this year but she got so excited when she saw the uniforms and hats we decided she might have fun. She loves playing with Jacob and being on a team coached by her Daddy.

Catching Up Since We Became a Family of 5... (note:4 new posts below)

Cole's baby announcement...I am sure I will get them sent out sometime.

For all you Aggie Fans!

So Cole continues to be our big baby and we love it...kissing chubby cheeks, legs, and tummies is so much fun...I just want to squish him all day long.

Anna gave her first scripture and prayer in primary a few Sundays ago, she was so cute and so excited to be like her big brother.

More catch up...

St. Patty's Day...

Anna rockin out with her Dora guitar, Dora Jammies, and Jacob's 100 day glasses.

Cole looks like this all the time. He is very serious and always looks deep in thought. We do seem to be getting more smiles lately.

He also loves his thumb, fingers, binky, or whatever he can suck on to keep him occupied. He is a super easy baby he loves to lay on the floor and babble. He also likes his carseat and being in the car which is great for this drive-all-the-time mom. He rarely cries except when he is hungry...you don't mess with this kids and his food! We just can't get enough of him.

Even More Catching Up...

Cole's blessing Day...


Jacob thought it was cool that he matched Cole. This is the outfit Cole came home in that Jacob picked out. It as a #3 for the 3rd child and for the 3rd of Feb, the day he was born.

Anna just being cute.
