What I Love About You.

Alright, I'm telling you upfront, this is a sappy post. My blog, my rules, I can be sappy once in a while.

I remember telling Jacob almost everyday for the first couple of months when we first moved to Montana, "I don't know what I'd do without you." I can just remember repeating that almost every single day to him. Not only is he there for innumerable amounts of kisses and hugs, he makes me laugh all the time. Even though there were days where I felt like the worst/failure of a mom, he was there with a kiss or a hug to make me feel better.

At first the move was so perfect, I was so happy to be able to be a stay at home mom, in my home, with Jacob being my number one priority and focus. And then... I started missing family, friends, and our old ward. Even though our home, environment, and friends changed... my family didn't. It was still the three of us (and one little dude on the way). And, I'm so grateful for that. I'm so grateful to have been blessed with this amazing family. I don't know what I'd do without my husband, little man Jacob, and little jelly bean on the way. Thank goodness for families, and thank goodness for eternal families.

Why every picture I take with him he has weirdo eyes? I have no clue. But my eyes don't look so good either, we're twins. And, I was in my first trimester in this picture, so I look pukey and tired... :) There's my excuse. Take it or leave it! I think Jon is just so in love that with every picture he takes with me he can't control himself...

Drinking the left over water after bathtime.. yummy!

Watching basketball together.

Mmmmmmm strawberries with sour cream and brown sugar.

Or just the brown sugar...

First picture where he has smiled for the camera the first time being asked was taken TODAY... I guess it's easier to get him to pose for a picture when he's got one of his favorite things to get a picture with, and then he gets to see the picture after it's taken. I peeked in Jacob's room during nap time and found this on Jacob's bed. He is OBSESSED with this blanket that Aunt Shawna made him when he was about 6 months or less old. He's slept with it every night since and ever nap since. I just don't remember him sleeping with it like this. Maybe it was too light in his room.
