Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a good Thanksgiving with Grandpa and Grandma Wilhelm this year! Jakob wasn't super thrilled about taking pictures. It was a fun time and then on to Black Friday shopping! On Saturday we decorated the Christmas tree. I'm so excited the Christmas season is upon us! These pictures were taken on my phone and didn't turn out great. 

Trip to Primary Children's

Our little Jakob has a cyst on his eyebrow that needed to be looked at. So on Sunday we headed to Salt Lake for an appointment on Monday at Primary Children's Hospital.  Good news! The cyst is not harmful and is called a dermoid cyst and for right now does not need surgery. We had a fun quick trip as a family. Robert's work lets us stay and eat at Little America for free if we have a medical appointment. Super nice!

Emma has been wanting a Sleeping Beauty's Palace Pet from Build-A-Bear so she did some chores and saved her money. Monday morning we rode the train to the Gateway Mall so Emma could get her Palace Pet.

Happy Halloween!

We had a super fun Halloween! Emma had the day off of school so we had lunch at Pizza Hut then went home to get ready for the big night! We trick or treated downtown, at the Rec Center, and around our neighborhood. Super fun family time!

Little Jakey

Here are a couple pics of our cute Jakey I've taken lately. I caught climbing on top of his toy to get to the hope chest. He's into everything, but he's so cute!

We were staying with Carl and his family this last weekend and I found Jakob sleeping sitting up and uses his ducky has a pillow. He is so funny!

Halloween Festivities!

We have been having all kinds of Halloween fun this week. We have been carving pumpkins, trunk or treating, and Emma had her class party.

We had so much fun carving. Emma picked a bat and Robert also did another pumpkin with a haunted house.

10 Months!

Our little Jakob is 10 months old! 

He has been very busy this last month. Here is what Jakob has been up to.

• He started crawling! 
• Jakob can climb the stairs (and almost go down by himself.)
• He can pull up on all the furniture.
• He can pick up food with his index finger and thumb.
• He loves his ducky. A soft little yellow stuffed duck. He snuggles his face in it when he goes to sleep. If it happens to end up out of his crib ,and he sees it, he will get so excited and crawl right to it.
• Jakob is definitely a Mama's boy. If I leave him with anyone besides Robert he screams the whole time. Although, he loves to hang out with his Dad, but he prefers that I stay close. Robert has to pick him up and soon as he gets home or he will start to cry. 
• He is eating solid foods better and better. He still loves applesauce, but he also loves oatmeal, cheese, crackers, yogurt, and bananas, 
• The sleeping thing might be getting a little better. He still wakes up at least once at night. 

Jakob is our little joy. He keeps us busy and is so much fun! 

Snuggle Buddies!

These two love each other so much!
