Last One!!

We are all hoping this is the last enrty as a family of 3, we are on pins and needles here knowing Caleb could enter the world any moment.

Here Jacob is trying on goggles, he looked like a little scientist!!

Anyway just a short update on Jacob, as we sat here tonight and played dinosaurs we counted how many we could fit into the back of a tonka truck, to our suprise Jacob proceeded to count as well, making it to 4 on his own and then jumping in at 7 and 9 and 10. We were AMAZED, we have practised each day when brushing his teeth, we coutn to 10 each set so to see the work paying of was blissfull.

Jacob also got a hair cut~ Uncle Joe will be happy to know this. I (mom) was hoping to grow it out and see ringlets again however it seemed to stop growing downward and start becoming puffier, he seemed extra hot when running around at the beach so he went back to the big boy hair cut. He is as handsome as ever!!!

We are just so amazed by the things that are coming out of Jacob's mouth, he is for sure a little copycat so we are extra careful on harsh words around him. He loves to help daddy mow the grass and follows him like a little duck in the yard. I have to get it on film!

Though Jacob gets annoyed and scared of Sellie (the dog) he still wanted to help brush her!!

UPDATE

Ok i updated the size guesses, but i seemed to have lost my list, i am sure i am excused with only 14 DAYS to go.

This and That

Please continue to make your guesses either by email or commenting on the post below.


Ireland was our last big trip before Caleb arrives but we wanted to let you all know what we do to keep busy .

Our 4th of July, we spent it with 2 families who are great friends of ours, Jacob played all day with Kennedy and Isaac, the fireworks ont he base ended up being a wahs for us, since it POURED, other wise it was a great time

Isnt J the perfect example of an all american boy, in his adorable flag swim suit. He had 2 festive shirts to wear this day as well, one read "Daddys' my Hero" How perfect for our family.

Yes we decided to bring out some of the baby items: J fought and fussed all day about wanting to get in, of course we explained no he was too big and this was for Caleb, he however managed to climb in as i wasent looking and then so proud of himself Yells "LOOK LOOK LOOK" i had to snap the pic and then get him out, he hasent tried again however he can reach the speed dial, so we will have to keep a close eye on him or Caleb maybe on a roller coaster ride instead of a soothing swing.

Here playing play dough, his favorite thing to do is make snakes and he is getting rather good, yes we even add eyes.

This one was taken today, as we wait for 1 pm for the pool to open. He claims to be making a HOUSE!!!!

This one I included because i recieved such wonderful compliments on Sunday at Chruch, Josh and I along with many other were both recognized for our volunteer work in the childcare. One woman said i looked like a greek goddess, a bit extreme i know but on days like today when i feel so BIG it made me feel WONDERFUL.

Ireland~ The Emerled Isle

Ireland was Beautiful, thats about how u can describe it, we had wonderful weather contrary to what everytold us.
This is the site on our wild wicklow tour used in many films.

Our adventures included, many stops in Dublin: churches, a zoo, Josh was able to partake in the pubs, and a visits to the Guinness Factory as well as the Jameson WHiskey Distillery. We also visited an old prison now used in some films, such as the Tutors.

Our Saturday in Ireland borught the Wild Wicklow Bus Tour. Here we saw beautifil countryside and filming spots such as P.S. I Love You. the hills were amazing, even without the full bloom heather. we visited a monastary, and Josh got to have a shot of WHISKEY of course, on the side of a road. A road which i might mention if you go off of even an inch the ground will collapse.

Ok now Photos: This is the Church of Christ. we did not go in because there were charging an entrance fee, something un heard of in Italy, since most are catholic. Irelands churches ar emostly non denominational and simply go by Christian.

Jacob and Kennedy, locked behind the jail doors.

This is the a piece of the wall which at one point surrounded Dublin, J is fast asleep!!

Goof Ball Daddy, tryign to do a mustache. On the first day we were there, we chose a local smaller pub to eat at, Josh of course ordered a beer and Jacob decide the nice foam on top looked similar to ice cream and stuck his finger right in to have a taste, we all jsut sorta gasped as he then did it again.
