Jake's Photo Shoot

It's hard to not do the same things for number two and three as you did for one...not because you don't have the same desires for them but because you no longer have as much time or money!! We took Jake to picture people a couple weeks ago and I am so glad we did. You can really see the red tint to his hair in these pictures. When he did his naked pics they had to take him to the front...the place right by the window to the mall. I think 7 or 8 people stopped and watched him take pictures...there is just something about a naked baby that makes people smile and laugh, especially when they have so many rolls like Mr. Jake. It was a lot of fun...thanks Mom! It was a wonderful Mother's Day gift.

Tyler turns 5!!

Bed head and all!

So I didn't win the award of the most pictures taken on your child's birthday. I had plenty of opportunities...the kid celebrated his birthday for about 2 weeks...party at Chucky Cheese with Caleb and Noah, celebration with Mommy and Daddy and then unexpectedly a Pappasitto's celebration with the grandparents. He did well for himself. I think we all kind of over did it out of guilt because all his little friends (besides Crista's kids) are in Georgia. Anyone that has boys and needs to give a gift soon...the speed racer track (the one that flips the cars 2 feet in the air) is awesome and remote control dinosaurs are very cool (have to have two though so they can fight). He also loved the transformer in the picture...the one I thought he wouldn't like because it stayed in robot form and almost took back...its the one toy he hasn't put down...go figure.

Jake turns 6 months!!

There is no doubt the kid is a boy...he wrestled this dinosaur for 20 minutes!

He is becoming our boy of many faces...we can't believe the things this kid can do with his eyebrows!

We go back and forth on who he resembles the most. There are so many times I think he looks like our nephew, Noah, when he makes all of his faces (Josh and Teresa's boy) but he is also very much a Nicholas (my mom's side of the family). You can't see it so much here but in some other pictures taken he has a very distinct red tint to his hair and he obviously has huge blue eyes...all of which are from Mom's side. Ben's mom sees my uncle all the time in him (Jack Nicholas) and last night Ben said he looked like a Bobinski (which would be my mom's sister). We'll see. One thing I know for sure is that I am in love with this kid and he is a complete angel!
