Update ( no pictures )

So things have been kind of crazy now for awhile and I have been bad and haven't updated anything. It's been about a month since I last updated well maybe a little longer seeing as in a week he will be 10 months old! Can't believe it. Let's see- we are still waiting for teeth 3 & 4 I honestly would have thought that they would have made their appearance by now. However no such luck. He still isn't walking he is cruising around furniture like there is no tomorrow but that is about the extent of it. Though he does stand by himself. He is also starting to be weaned from baby food. What we have left is it. Used up all I have made for him and now just using what we have left of the jars and then we are done.
But over the weekend he actually tried some new things and just adored them. We as a family went to Chuck A Rama after Losepelli's baptism. It was really funny to be able to spend sometimes with the extended fam. Jacoby loved it because he adores being around people. He has no stranger danger at all he believes that when we go places everyone is there to see and hang out with him. However back to Chuck a Rama. I let the boy try some salmon ( loved it ) chicken ( couldn't seem to get enough ) and lasagna and mac & cheese he loved it all. It's amazing what a happy little guy he is. Everyone seems to remark on that as well as his "gorguess eyes".
Yep proud to say he got those from me hahaha!
i can't really think of anything else that is really exciting other then we are walking the day before Jacoby's 1st birthda with the March of Dimes in honor of Jacoby since he was born at 35 weeks and is still a preemie though albeit a later term preemie but still a preemie. So if anyone is interested in donating please let me know-
Oh and of course carry on!

updates

So I wanted to do a little update with things that have been going on- The boy actually started crawling this month and now has it down hard core. He can get anywhere very quickly. He has also since learned that he can pull himself up and feels that he needs to be standing constantly.

He also has his first 2 teeth on the bottom. I believe that here in the next few weeks we will have 3 & 4 up on top. Hard to believe now that he is 8 1/2 months old it goes way way way too fast but it's so much fun. I just love that little guy so much!

But here are some new pics enjoy :)

A new decade starts.

I can still surprisingly remember where I was at the start of the last millenium almost as if it was yesterday. I was with Britnie, Anne Jason, Billy, Caliab and Brian. We were downtown for the what was called at the time "First Night Celebration" out on the streets of Salt Lake with tons and tons of other people. I remember that I bought a special new dress and a feather boa for the occasion ( I had to dress up the dress )... I had no idea what to expect of the new millenuim. I had always thought whent he year 2000 came we would be driving in little cars like those on the Jetson's and maybe living on the moon. However in my defense I was only 5 when I believed those things because it just seemed so far away.
When I think back on the past decade there is a song that comes to mind. "It's so hard to Say goodbye to yesterday by:Boyz II Men". It's true though how do you say goodbye to yesterday? When this decade started I had no idea of what was to go where I would go the people that I would meet and things that would change my life drastically. I mean I moved to Texas in 01 for a few years and met people down there that I cherish with all my life and I don't know if I would have made it out there with out them. Reconnected with an old friend and have stayed reconnected. Now live in my own house. The biggest but the best thing that came out of the decade of course would be Jacoby. I can't even begin to picture my life without him. I honestly can't wait to see what the next decade brings. I can look back on this decade with fondess, there were good timesm truimphs, heart aches loss and great friendships but those are what made me the person that I am today and I wouldn't change it a bit. Never look back with regrets or wonder just look forward with hope and learning.

more misc pictures....

Honestly at the time these were taken I was too horrified with how I looked to even dare post them to this but now I I don't really care.

These were all taken the day that Jacoby was born 5/16/09

Jacoby met Santa Claus

So this past Sunday I took Jacoby to South Towne Mall where we met up with friends to get our kids pictures taken with Santa Claus. I honestly wasn't sure how he would do but had hoped it would do wonderfully because he loves people and loves to be the center of attention. But he did wonderful and seemed perfectly content to be sitting there :) He looks like such a little man now! Growing up way too fast.

Jacoby 6 months

I also thought that I would share some of his 6month pics that our friend Misty took for him one day while he was at her home.

I am only slighted belated in writing this as next week he will be 7 months old!

But I still can't believe that my little man is halfway to being a year old. Seems like just yesterday he was this tiny little guy that they placed in my arms who was so little and peaceful.

Now I have this little bossy person who can reach and grab and thinks that he is capable of all kinds of things. Lately I have decided that I shall refer to him as the toothless wonder. Yep we still have no signs at all of teeth nor of being able to sit by himself. He has quite the little personlity and is such a happy little guy and loves to play with toys or play in his toys :). When we went in for his 6 month appointment he was 25 3/4" long and 15lbs 12oz. He had officially tripled his birth weight!
