Father's Day
Posted by Bill Roberts at 7:35 PM About Jake
Today was my very first father’s day and it was awesome!
The day started off by Jacob waking up and smiling at daddy! We then tried to decide which outfit Jacob should wear to the Angels and Dodgers game at Dodgers stadium. Since he has outfits for both teams and his daddy likes the Angels (while his Papa likes the Dodgers), it was a battle between which one he should wear. I decided to have Jacob wear the Dodgers outfit first and then change later to an Angels fan because I didn’t want Jacob to go home wearing losing colors ;). You can check out the pictures by clicking HERE.
We then headed off with Nani and Papa to go pick up Grandpa to carpool to the game. When we got there, we ended up scoring BIG TIME by getting premium parking at the top and only having to walk about 20 feet to get into the stadium. That was really cool especially since it was a little warm and we had lots of food with us.
We eventually met up with Uncle RJ and Auntie Sonia (and her parents). RJ was so happy to see Jacob. They were hanging out together and took lots of pictures. Next, the game started and Jacob ended up going pee all over his Dodgers outfit – I guess he was showing everyone what he really thinks of them. We then put on his true colors... the Angels outfit and he looked really cool. Everyone around us was checking him out and they thought he looked like a real cool little dude!!! After changing him, the Angels started to do really well too and in the end, the Angels ended up pounding the Dodgers, 10 to 4.
So now we’re back home and just kicking it. What was really cool about this weekend is that he finally was able to take a bottle. Nani came over and helped Jacob eat from a bottle. Daddy just fed him a 6 oz bottle at 6:45 and he did very well! Soooo...no more saga with the bottle. WAY TO GO JAKE!
Thanks for the best father’s day any daddy could ask for. Missy is a wonderful mother to Jacob and she really made my day today! Jacob got me a really cool picture gallery with daddy-to-son sayings on it, a cool mouse pad with his picture (I'm using it now), a frame with some pictures of us in it, and a really cool daddy book to read to him at night. I was expecting a great day and it ended up being so much more than what I expected. I couldn’t sleep and woke up early because I was so excited to take on the day. I don’t want today to end but I know it has to. But I’m fine with that… because I will see my precious Jacob tomorrow and be so proud of him.
Mommy and Daddy love you buddy. Today you were a champ!
