I’ve had a crappy couple of weeks so today after a crappy morning I decided that Jacob and I would try to embrace the spirit of the season - and that we did! We went outside for a walk in the falling snow and Jacob wasa mesmorized! It was awesome!

When we got back in we had a spaghetti lunch followed by a bath for Jacob (with bubbles of course!) and then we got in our jammies, sat up on the couch and watched the Polar Express. Afterwards, we took a nap together in the great big bed……I found joy in doing all these things with Jacob - he is a piece of my soul walking around on earth.

Jacob had his 18 month appointment yesterday.

He’s now…

25 pounds 13 ounces…..

and 34 inches tall!

What a big boy he’s becoming!! Cant’ believe he’s grown so much! I remember when he was 6 pounds 5 ounces……seems so long ago now! Had he gone full term I’m sure he’d have been around 8 pounds!
