24 weeks.

yipes - sometimes i forget to update my blog. well, it's not that i forget...it's that i don't have anything exciting to add to the blogging world. well, i never really have anything exciting to add to the blogging world, but i suppose this blog is more to keep my friends and family updated with the happenings of our life since they are spread out throughout the whole world in places like Baltimore, Rochester, Lexington, Massachusetts, California, Vancouver, etc. Anyways...here's some thoughts on the past couple of weeks. if you make it to the end there will even be a bumpdate!

+there have been no more kidney stone episodes...praise the Lord. i never want to go through that again. 

+post kidney stone was an infection. antibiotics seemed to have cleared them up.

+cousin has started the brainwashing of jacob (who she fondly refers to as jsquared). i was beyond excited to receive this gem in the mail...along with THE cutest socks and bib EVER! THANKS COUSIN!!!! jsquared tells us he cannot wait to wear this!!

+ry and i are on a serious mission. the goal: find a baby US soccer jersey for jacob. oh dear this is near impossible. there's just about every other country in the world except the US. doesn't anyone know that the olympics are coming and we need to have jacob outfitted appropriately?

+clearly sports teams have been picked out for jacob. we're allowed to do this until he's wise enough to choose syracuse, the patriots, the red sox and US soccer as his own favorite teams ;)

+we got two feet of snow on saturday. two feet. that's a lot of feet of snow. it's so tall that beans won't go in it because his whole body sinks down in. poor little guy. we had to shovel paths for the dogs. here's a picture of them running through the paths...i love the little guy in the back:

+i love my beanies

+ this, my friends, is what 24 weeks of jacob looks like. sorry for the black sweater making it a little hard to see ... i had to take advantage of being dressed in more than sweats and a gordon soccer t shirt, so i took a picture in my church clothes yesterday!
