Fall Update!

Megan and Jacob are growing like crazy. Megan is a wonderful big sister and seems to want to help most all of the time. She loves to say "me here buddy" to comfort him when we walk out of the room. She also loves to give him paci's, puffs, and toys. The other day Megan was taunting him with her puppy on a string. She pulled it along until Jacob got close and then quickly pulled it away and started running with it. Jacob loves anything Megan has of course but he is also enjoying shoes (to chew on them of course!), anything with wheels, and musical instruments. His ultimate favorite is finger-walking with daddy. He would walk around all day if we let him, when it's time to sit back down he always cries for a time before settling down to the fact that it's floor time now! They both love the outdoors playing in the leaves and swinging.

We seem to be adjusting to life with two kids at home. Jacob is finally sleeping through the night at least half of the time. Megan is loving preschool and seems to have made some friends. We were able to get the leaves raked in the backyard and hope to finish the front yard soon. Michael did most of the work while I played with the kids and cleaned up all the toys we seem to have collected. Megan helped by jumping in the leaves and Jacob was napping for most of the time!

We enjoyed ourselves at the park last weekend. The weather was gorgeous and we took full advantage. We started the day shopping at the outlet mall at the Lake and then went to the park to play and for Megan to jog of course! Jacob had a blast playing in the leaves, he crumpled them in his hands and swished them with his feet.
The practice updo for Halloween.
Jacob practicing pulling up which he does all of the time now. He is starting to stand by himself for a few seconds before falling down and he is also starting to just let go and balance for a second before falling. It's rather scary sometimes!
Ahhh, his first love....duckie blankie!
It's been a hard day!
Megan wanted Jacob on her lap and I just couldn't resist getting it on camera. She would probably hold him more often if I would stop taking pictures!
Cheese!
Megan and Daddy on the carousel at the Mall. She was funny, each time it came around she would yell faster to the attendant and she also pretended to pet her deer!
More cuteness! In another picture he just had the rattle in his mouth with no hands!
