Blessings...

This picture has nothing to do with my blog post, it just cracks me up. Do you like her onsie bonnet? :)

This is my blessing #1 - Andrew. What a great kid. He's funny, he's sweet, he's cute, and he takes good naps (usually) and sleeps well at night (usually!). Love that kid. And I love the way he holds his stuffed animals.

Blessing #2 - This is how Emily was sleeping the other day. So funny. I love that little kid so much...

She looks a little weird here, but I love her little smiles. She smiles all the time, especially when I stick my tongue out at her or when I open my mouth really wide. It's hilarious. She's too adorable.

Blessing #3 - Emily's blessing. Even though Andrew was crying for his daddy the whole time, I felt so very blessed to have a worthy priesthood holder in Mike who was able to bless her. I'm excited for her to continue to grow and become her own little person. Here she is at my parents house. Could she be any more tiny?

I love her little blessing outfit. She looked so cute.

Mike was exhausted and fell asleep on the floor.

My dad and Emily

I hate to admit that I love it when she starts to cry, because she usually makes this silly face beforehand.

Here are the three of us. Andrew was running around somewhere and was impossible to track down. This is outside the church after she was blessed. I'm in love with her socks. And her dad.

Two of my loves

Emily finally got to meet her Grandma and Grandpa Jacobs. They loved her, she loved them, it was good. :)

I love this picture. I love my in-laws so very much.

I feel very blessed!!

Because it's funny...

Recent Pictures

I love that my skinny little baby looks pudgy here. I love her sweet little smile.

Babies look so angelic when they're sleeping.

I, on the other hand, do NOT look angelic when I'm sleeping. Here is me with my babies early in the morning when they came to see me. :)

She has a silly face in this picture, but I adore her little nose, and this picture really highlights it. That and her bright little eyes.

We love our little kids so much!

Getting To Know You...

Unbelievable as it is for me to imagine, our Little Miss Cuteness is two weeks old today!!! We have all really loved getting to know her, and are so grateful she's here and healthy.

Pinkie in her mouth after eating. Apparently that was necessary. This kid cracks us up so much. She makes the funniest faces and noises.

Sleepy little Emmie Pie. Still looks just like all the Jacobs girls. :)

Here's her pensive look. She did this for quite a while while I was changing her diaper.

"Shall I start screaming to eat now, or should I wait until she is ready to eat her lunch?"And here's her big brother Andrew. This was his first ever ice cream cone on the Fourth of July. He was pretty impressed. Also, this kid is amazing. Today he shocked me by counting to ten all on his own. I had NO idea he could do that. He is also the sweetest little boy I could ever ask for. Lucky, lucky, lucky me!!!! Love these kiddos.

Emily on the 4th of July. She definitely looks like she's done taking pictures.

Family Pictures

Me and Mike with our little daughter (by the way, it's still weird and awesome that we have a little girl now!)

The whole family! I can't believe my luck. The best husband, the funniest, nicest little son, and the sweetest little daughter.

Sleeping little angel. I could just stare at my sleeping babies all day.

"You may kiss the royal hand."

My "little" guy. He has been a little jealous lately of the baby. He's been really sweet to her, he just likes to sit in her seat, ask for hugs while I'm feeding the baby, etc. I'm really proud of how he's adjusting. I love my little guy.

I love my little family!!
