Jacob is 6 months old.

Yup, it's his half birthday. And I still feel like I just had him. We've got a lot of things to look forward to within the next couple of weeks like a wellness baby check-up and official 6 month pics. He's such a big boy. I can see his personality already. He's shy around strangers and very vocal with me and his dad. He has a bit of a temper and hates when people take things away from him. I've started to let him roll around on the floor more and he loves this new freedom. So how did Jacob spend his half birthday? Just chillin' at home in his favorite new toy. His jumper! And Jacob's grandpa is too cute. He got Jacob a cake, and we sang half of the birthday song. We were going to use half a candle but decided against it.

He loves it...


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Hope everyone had a love filled day with an SO or special friends. Our valentine's day was low key. Jess came home with these...

Two bouquets and a beautiful orchid. Jess calls the orchid our love fern (from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days)...


And we made chicken cordon bleu (Yup, Chema, we did it!) and it was really delicious. Chicken breast stuffed with prosciutto and swiss cheese served with a green salad topped with almonds. I'm very proud of us...
