Staying at Home

So I love the 5 days a week I get to spend with Jacob all by myself while Greg works. I am happy that I am able to that. Greg is such a hard worker and is happy that he can provide us enough to get by so I can stay home. But I have to admit that my favorite days are Sunday and Monday. Those are the days that we 3 get to spend together because they are Greg's days off.

We get to go to the pool and swim, or we can lounge in our PJs all day long and watch cartoons. The only thing that really needs to get done on these days are Greg's work laundry and any work things he may have to do while home. Those both don't take to long. It also means more time to lay in bed and snuggle before Jacob wakes up.

I do however wish Greg could have the opportunity that I get during the week with Jacob. We have so much fun playing and swimming and visiting Nana. I love having the option of not knowing what the day will bring. At least on Sundays and Mondays Greg gets to be a part of our little world of staying at home. And boy have they become so cute together.

Size What??

Well I don't know what to do about my little... eh big baby. He is 14 weeks old, 3 months and I just bought him size 12 months. Not for the future, for him to wear now! AHHHH! Where did my baby go? I can't believe he is getting so big so fast. He is 15 lbs and is 26 inches long. He is so long so none of his clothes fit. When he was born he wore 3 months, then moved to 6 months and pretty much skipped over size 9 months. I have a ton of clothes with tags on them that he hasn't and won't touch. It's awful. Luckily Carter's was having a HUGE sale and got a ton of outfits for $2 and $3 a piece. Which is great since he doesn't seem to stay in them very long.

In other news, he is sleeping through the night again, still teething but he got over this awful cold. Last night he slept 12 hours!! Oh my goodness, 12 hours is a long time. I will tell you I definitely enjoyed the sleep. Too bad it can't be like that every night.

Greg and I are doing well. Just enjoying our little family. Greg gets so excited when he comes home now. He can make Jacob laugh so hard, harder then I can. I think he prides himself in that. Jacob is starting to look like Greg too. That makes me happy.

My mom had her birthday last weekend and we made sure it was super special. My step-dad was out of town so I made sure she spent it with us. We had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and then came back to the apartment where she loved all over Jacob. He loves his Nana so much. They are so cute together. She is now an official senior citizen, 55 years old. She wears it well and I hope she stays around for another 20 or 30 years. I think that is my biggest fear is that she won't be around to see Jacob do things. It's scary, even though I had him young, she had me when she was older. I try to take as many pictures of them together as she will let me. I want to make sure that Jacob will always know who is Nana is, just in case she isn't here. I just wish she would let me take more pictures. She enjoys every minute she gets with him. She comes and visits at least once a week and we go see her once or twice a week. She can't go a few days without seeing him and that makes me so happy!!

I love my little family!

Mobile Baby

When I went into Jacob's room this morning to feed him I noticed he was crawling, but he was asleep. So I suppose you can say he was sleep crawling. I think that means he is going to be crawling soon. It's in his sub conscience I think, so now if he can only remember how to crawl when he's awake I will have a mobile baby! As much as that makes me excited at the same time I want my little baby to stop growing so quickly. I feel like he is just growing by leaps and bounds. He will 3 months old on Friday and I can't believe it. He is just getting so big so quick. If anyone had told me this I would have taken more pictures, not that I need to. I take a million a week.

In other news, I can't believe it's July already! Wow where did the time go?? I have taken on a craft project. I am making a toy box with a bench for Jacob. Since he has become mobile in his crib, his stuff animals need a new home so I thought this was a perfect way to occupy my time. I will upload pictures when I am done. Other then that I am enjoying my summer with my baby. Greg and I are doing so great as well. Thing are just dandy right now. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July. This weekend in my mom's birthday and since my step dad is out of town we are going to have her over for a birthday dinner. Other then that not a lot going on!!
