Happy Valentine's Day!

Jacob's new hobby is bringing his fist up to his mouth and licking it. He also likes to suck on anything he can get his mouth on, including our shoulders! Jacob also likes to talk! He would stare and us and ramble on and on and on about anything while grabbing our faces. It's so cute! He responds well to soft tones. He'll keep the conversation going...
This is just us trying to get more cute snapshots of Jacob in his Valentine attire...something that mommy has been looking forward to all week!
For V day, Aunt Monica gave us a unique and most adorable gift...a glazed tile with Jacob's picture inscribed. I'll have to take pictures of it and post it. It's gorgeous! Jeremy and Jacob gave me an 12x18 collage of some of Jacob's cute pictures over the past couple of months. It's sure to go on the wall in Jakey's nursery! =)

During play time, we've been told to work with Jacob on developing his neck strength. We do this by pulling, gently, his arms for him to sit up. Then, gradually, we'd pull him up to stand. He absolutely loves to stand! He gets super excited, his mouth gasps open, and so does his eyes. You can see it in this picture. When we put him back down to do the exercise again, he doesn't like it at all. He'd rather stand up the whole time!


This is Jacob waking up from his very 'short' nap...a 15 minute nap! We were cooking dinner and wanted him downstairs with us so we could keep an eye on him. Once I placed him in the playard, he woke up instantly and wanted someone to hold him. Jeremiah and I raced to pick him up and he chose daddy... *scroll down for more pictures*

I love his beanie! And he looks so big, not the new born look anymore! We miss him.ture
