13 Month Pictures

It looks like I took their 13 month pictures during breakfast time...(I'm posting it 2 months after it was taken. ) Jacob doesn't look too happy here, but notice he is feeding himself!














Jacob is on the left and Robby on the right.

Robby has this cute growl face he does. It comes complete with noises too! This picture has their "birthday bear" in it. I'll have to hunt around for others. I have their "birthday bear" in all their monthly pictures to show how much they've grown.

Rachael's 17th Birthday Party

These are pictures taken from Rachael's 17th birthday party. It was quite a big bash. It was in a facility with pool tables, foosball, video games and tons of other things. Her mom hired a magician, who was incredible. Once I figure out how to upload videos on my web site, I'll put some of his magic tricks on her.
Jacob and Grandma looking at the magician's dove.
Grandpa holding Robby and Ryan holding Jacob. A couple of tired looking boys...they stayed up for the entire party...which was way past their bed time.

Mother's Day... May 12, 2008

Robby & Jacob







Cousin Rachael, Robby & Jacob...

This was the same day that Rachael was getting Jacob into his pajamas and somehow "packed" the toy cell phone inside of his clothes...It was pretty funny! It reminded me of the day when Auntie Debbie changed Jacob's diaper for the first time in the NICU. She was so proud of herself for doing it until the RN pointed out that she had also strapped his arms into the diaper too! I wish I would have got a picture of that.
Cindy & Jacob. Jacob loves looking at himself in a mirror.

We had a great day to walk and it was so great seeing some our favorite night nurses again!

Hailey was in our room to greet us when we first arrived to the NICU. A few days later, her brother Andrew returned from a stay at Children's Hospital and they were both our roommates for our entire stay. Molly was in the room next to us. A great family, who has been through even more than us.




Big Sister Megan wanted in the picture too. I read their blog regularly and she is quite the big sister and sounds like she adjusted well to having three siblings join her.


I'm trying this new thing w/ Picasa and I can't figure out how to get all the pictures on the same blog...so there is one more picture that will be alone.

The final....March for Babies

Now we got Megan with the group! What a doll!

We thank everyone who supported us for this walk.

Many years ago and for several years, I did the 20 mile walk
for the March Of Dimes. I had no idea what I was raising money
for, but it was fun and a challenge to see how much I could raise and
making it the 20 miles.

Now I know where that money went and what a worthy cause the
March of Dimes is! We plan on doing this walk every year and hopefully
someday they can figure out what causes premature births and stop it!!

Little Red School House

Here is Jacob in the little swing they have at The Little Red School House.

This place is great. Jacob gets therapy once a week from Pilar (pictured in a couple of the other pictures). Since he is a little behind developing, she works with him to catch him up. They have mom and baby play group on Friday which I sometimes make it to. Grandma has been there with them more often since I have to work.









Here is Pilar reading to Jacob after snack time and Robby listening in.

I'm not quite sure when these pictures were taken...sometime in May.
