First Christmas

It's Jakob's first Christmas.  On Thursday, December 22nd, we went to Lito and Noni's house and he got to see the cousins for the first time.  He didn't like all the noise but we enjoyed spending time with the Elan, Ellery and Ellia!  He also loved being held by Noni and Lito and Tia Kate!  We managed to only stop once for the 6 hour trip so it was a good one. 

Christmas Stocking

Here is Jakob with his stocking at Noni and Lito's house.  The stocking is almost as big as he is!

A Festive Tummy Time

We retired Jakob's pumpkin hat and now he's sporting his santa hat.  He's our little Santa (or maybe given his size he should be our little elf and sport an elf hat!).  This was an attempt at tummy time on the Boppy but unfortunately Jakob's not a fan.  He buries his head until he gets frustrated after a couple minutes and then we have to quit.  As of December 11th, he now weighs 8 lbs 8.5 oz and is growing well.

Day After Thanksgiving

We spent the day after Thanksgiving with Nana and PaPa.  It was Jakob's first big trip.  It was the perfect distance given that we could feed him before we left and get there right before he was hungry again.  Mom and Dad made a big "uh oh" and forgot some of his feeding supplies so he went a little hungry but managed just fine during the 5 hour visit.  We'll have to do better for the longer Christmas trip! 

Great Grandma got to hold Jakob for the first time!  He also met Great Uncle Wayne and Great Uncle Chuck for the first time.  It was a fun day and he definitely enjoyed all the attention.
