35 Weeks 5 Days of Heavenly Bliss

Some of you know that grace and poise don't exist whilst I'm pregnant.

I apologize. Soon I'll be back to my perfect little self.

I say this mainly to Lexi and Travis.

The things they've seen...

Things that have made these 4000 weeks better...

frosting
family
friends
Mario Kart
space heater

and mostly seeing this today...

#4 ultrasound and the shy little toot finally shows her face.

and an ear...

Some neat finds.
We saw her open her eyes, she is no longer breech or transverse (she couldn't decide last week), kick the ultrasound wand, fuzzy hair on her head, practice breathing which leads to our favorite site...the diaphragm.

I can't wait to show Lex.

I think I'm in love.

Creative Genius

I just made chocolate pancakes.

I used Ovaltine.

I rule.

Easter was SO last week.

Our best girl and a tummy shot of the Beef.Easter does wicked things to a girl's hair.
A little egg hunt in our beautiful courtyard.
New duds. Aunt Cyd's handywork!
She must be low on her medication.
We had our pals over for dinner and strangely this is one of the few things we decided to document.
Marylynn and her first deviled egg: A Series.
This will be her one and only bite of a deviled egg.
Ever.

A second egg hunt.
A little more competitive.
Thanks for a great Easter Jacobs Fam.
Hope you had a sound night after that deviled egg.

Sorry chumps. You must not be photogenic.

Kennedy the Kindly Teenager

That's right. I used kind and teenager in the same sentence.

If anyone knows the Dunlops, we can't help but surprise each other.
One night we had a call at 11:00pm saying that Cyd and Phil had "just got something" and wanted to show us. Now I'm dumb, but not THAT dumb. I had heard rumors of my brother in law and nephew maybe coming so I wised up. Made a quick sign and at midnight I found this on my doorstep.

My completely adorable niece came out to NJ on a whim to help my sister Cyd out with entertaining her boys whilst Eliza becomes adjusted to this thing we call life. It was also her Spring Break so she was living it up.

Like the terrible aunt I am, I didn't bring my camera with me, except for one day. We did a lot of fun things including Kid's Castle in Doylestown. A place Kenner went many a time when we lived in PA. Ken would all the sudden have an memory blast and remember being there.

March 31st was a Awareness Day for Congentital Diaphragmatic Hernia so we all got together in Princeton to visit the cemetery and to do what we do best...eat foods.

PJ's Pancake House

Ken- I loved, LOVED, LOOOOVED seeing you. You are amazing at entertaining the kids and mostly entertaining me, but if you call my cell phone again just to make it ring (I had 14 voice mails in one day of her making horrendous noises)...I'm gonna have to break you child.

Miss you already!
COME BACK SOON!

Easter

This time of year I like to think of the things that bring me joy.

Spring.

Easter.

and this...


I warned you Cyd.

You should have never put pictures of me in the dance costumes.

Never.

April Fools let down

"Ok Lex, let's make dad some cookies and make one REALLY salty."


Later on, "Hey dad, we are going to make cookies today!"

"That's good, Lou."

"And we aren't going to make one salty one. We really aren't."


Awesome.
