Bill and Miss (plus two)

Today Jacob is getting ready to watch the UCLA Bruins play in the Final Four.  He is wearing his UCLA gear for good luck.  He's worn the same outfit for the past 3 games and so far so good!  Daddy and Jacob went for a walk this morning.  When they returned Jacob was holding a flower for mommy that he "picked."  Of course mommy had it in a vase and will keep that flower forever.  Daddy said that on their walk they were looking at the birdies and chased a couple of lizards.  Now here is the funny part...we all know that Jacob can't chase lizards right now, because he can't walk yet...so that means Daddy was running after lizards with the stroller...I know that must have been a funny sight.  It does bring a smile to mommy's face (1) thinking about Bill running along the street with the stoller but (2) I can only imagine when Jacob is able to walk and wants to chase lizards and stuff that the two of them will be out together doing those things.  That kind of stuff brings a smile to my face.  Daddy loves to hang out with his son whether it's just them hanging out on the couch kicking it or if they are sitting outside watching the birds and planes fly by!  They are so cute together!

Yesterday Jacob, Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, Grandpa, Nani and Papa went to a Fish Fry at Daddy's high school, St. John Bosco.  It was so cool being with both sets of grandparents.  After we ate Daddy gave us a tour of his school.  I think he had a good time thinking of the "good ol days"

Well hopefully we will be updating tomorrow with good news that the Bruins will be playing on Monday in the Championship game!  Until then...mommy and daddy love you!

Sunday Jacob turned 3 months old.  We celebrated by going to church :)  We went to the 11:30 service so we were able to meet more mommies and babies in the nursing room.  Then we went to lunch and got a little shopping in.

On Tuesday, March 27th Jacob started to grab things.  Up until this date when he played with his hands they were always in fists.  When he woke up on Tuesday, mommy noticed that he was holding the blanket that was over his legs.  So she gave him a toy to play with and he grabbed on for a little while.  Now he favorite thing is a small blanket with a bear attached to it.  The edges of the blanket are wet when he's done with it, because it goes from his hands straight to his mouth.  I guess the blanket tastes good:)

Today we went to the mall to have his 3 month pictures taken.  He looked so handsome in his overalls outfit that he will also wear on Easter.  He was a good boy even though it was his feeding time! He didn't smile too much, but we got some good pictures anyway.  There was another 3 month old little girl in there and Jacob was flirting with her...it's starting already!  He was a good boy the whole time we were there...Once mommy picked out the pictures, then he got hungry.  The rest of the day we are just hanging out waiting for daddy to get home from work!  Jacob misses his daddy when he has to go into work, but has a good time with him once he gets home!

Until next time...mommy and daddy love you!

Yesterday Jacob went to see the Easter Bunny and take his picture with him.  Fortunately we were able to go during the day and there was NO ONE THERE!  So we walked right up to the Easter Bunny.  Jacob was a good boy with him and didn't cry.  In fact, daddy even got him to smile for the picture. 

While we were getting ready to leave to see the Easter Bunny we were putting Jacob in his car seat and realized he was too big for the newborn insert in the car seat:(  So, he has graduated from that.  Daddy took out the newborn inserts and had to move the straps up one notch.  Oh no! He's getting bigger right before our eyes.

Today mommy and Jacob went to visit Jacob's great grandma.  This was the first time they met each other.  G.G. (as the other great grand kids call her) loved him and thought he was too cute!  We had a nice visit with GG but had to go earlier than she wanted us to so that we would miss the afternoon traffic.  Jacob does not do well in traffic and with no one in the backseat to entertain him, mommy was not about to have a long drive home with a crying baby.  So we told GG that we would visit her again and take her out to lunch. 

For the past week or so Jacob has been sleeping through the night.  He eats and goes to sleep around 8:30 and doesn't wake up until 5:30 in the morning!  Mommy and daddy love this new routine, we are getting lots of sleep now which is wonderful.  Mommy still wakes up in the middle of the night to check on her little sleeping angel, but it's not that bad!

Mommy and daddy love you!
