He Crawls!

Yup, our little man has started crawling! He started this new adventure almost a week ago, and is fascinated by his new discovery. It's so entertaining to watch him scurry to his destination with a look of determination on his face. So far, his primary goal is to gather up all of the dog toys and Dixie is not helping in that area. Dixie's our lab, and she loves nothing more than to play ball. So now that she has a miniature friend to play ball with, she is always tossing her toys at him. Really great....

So, I have a new workout regimen and that is to follow little Jacob around wherever he crawls making sure he's not eating the dog food or the dog toys. It's really fun, though, and I am so happy that he has reached this milestone. We praise Jesus for blessing us with this sweet boy - he is such an answer to prayer and the Lord knew exactly what we would need in a child. He has captivated my heart!

I would attach the video of him crawling, and I tried to, but it won't download for some reason. I think it might have too much memory. Oh, well!

Marital Bliss

Derek and I just celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary last Monday, June 2nd! The years have gone so fast and I am so thankful and very blessed by my wonderful husband. He is the love of my life!

To celebrate our anniversary, we took a family trip to San Diego, California. We were there for 4 days and had an absolute blast! What a beautiful city! Jacob got to fly on his first airplane ride, which he did fabulous for the departure flight (not so much on the flight coming home)! We also went to San Diego Zoo and saw the polar bears and panda bears, and we went to Sea World and saw Shamu and sharks. Jacob especially liked the sharks.

All in all, it was a wonderful vacation. We're sad to be away from the beautiful California weather, but it's nice to be home. We missed our dogs very much. (Well, I did. I can't say the same for Derek)!
