Weekend

We had a very nice Thanksgiving with the Welches and a productive weekend decorating for Christmas. Jake enjoyed picking out the tree, but was ready to go inside where it was warmer and get some treats. He loved decorating his little tree and helping mommy put the lights on the family tree. Maybe next year he can do it so I don't have to! Josh was in charge of the outside lights and they look great. Jake made me take him outside three times last night to look at the lights. He was equally amazed each time he saw them. Oh, to be 2 1/2 again. Enjoy the pictures below.

He loved putting on his ornaments

A Chef at Heart

Saturday morning waffles

Jacob has really taken to the idea of cooking. He loves doing anything that involves helping make a meal. Sometimes he "helps" a little too much, but at least he's interested. Josh took Jacob to his second Colts game the other weekend. Jake now wants to watch football all the time and is a huge Colts fan. Of course this pleases his father to no end:0) Below are a few photos from the last couple of weeks. Have a great Thanksgiving!

Me do it, Mommy!

Trick or Treat

Jake had a full weekend. It started off with a fall party at school and continued on from there. Nana and Bumpa came over so Bumpa could do his anual pumpkin carving. It turned out great. Jacob loved his pumpkins this year. Nana brought over a cake for our birthdays and we have now done candles and birthday cake a total of three times since Friday. He shouts out, "Happy Birthday to you, Daddy!" Then of course he is the one to blow out the candles and lick the icing off them. We used the last of the candles last night, so the birthday celebration is now officially over.

Jake was somewhat into trick or treating. We went to our old neighbors and then just stopped at a few houses. The people next door and Josh set up a tent between our houses and we all just hung out there and had a nice time passing out candy.
