Happy Easter everyone! We had a great day and really enjoyed the time we spent with family this weekend. Church went pretty well also, although Jacob is getting pretty ridiculous with the whole breastfeeding thing. He was pulling my hair, pinching me, slapping my chest. Aaron said "He's done". Right now I'm down to just breastfeeding in morning and evening, but I was hoping to keep Jacob quiet a bit during church, which he DID quiet down, but I think he was still very distracting! Anyhow, hope everyone else had a great day as well. I forgot our camera, but we took a few with my mom's camera, I'll try to add her photos later.
Well, Jacob has really grown by leaps and bounds lately. I really feel like I have a toddler now and not a baby. Since we returned from Florida on March 23rd, Jacob has cut both of his top front teeth and is now WALKING! He started taking several unassisted steps last Sunday and by this Sunday... uh, yeah, he's walking. It's the cutest thing to see, since he is just so short and small. And he walks like a zombie or someone who is sleepwalking, with his arms straight out in front of him. He also walks kinda silly, like he is a drunken sailor. I'm trying to download it so I can put a little video on here, but I'm having problems, so I will keep working on that. In a couple of years, Jacob will be able to show me how to do stuff like that, but in the meantime I am on my own!
In other news, the weather sucks. We have had major snowy/windy/blizzardy/icy conditions since Wednesday. It's such wasted snow too, since all the area ski resorts have closed :( I have seen a few sleds (snowmobiles) out, so at least a few people can take advantage. Let's just hope it doesn't do too much harm to the cherry crops up here, those cherries are important to this area!
I'm so glad people are commenting more. It's making this blogging thing so much more fun! And, I'm super excited that my cousin Julie started her own blog, check it out at www.julie-fiveisenough.blogspot.com (hope you don't mind me posting that, Julie!). I highly encourage anyone else that is thinking about it to try it out! It's been fun and like my cousin Jeanine says, it's kind of therapeutic!
Oh and a BIG congrats to Shannon and Joe who are expecting their first child together November 3rd, just one day before Shannon's birthday! They are going to make us wait until then to find out if it's a boy or girl, but my money is on a BOY! Congrats guys, you two are going to be GREAT parents!
So, since I don't have any pictures from our Easter, here are some from last week of Aaron and Jacob on the Quad. Of course, Jacob loved it, although he looked pretty grumpy for the camera. 
Also, here are a few of Jacob and Noah together. Noah is 3.5months in these photos, Jacob is 10 months.

OMGosh! Danielle, look at Jacob walk! I think mom said I walked at this age and it looks so silly for such a shorty to be walking! Darling video! I'll have to try out the video too :-) Btw, yes, it's fine that you advertised my blog! Well, keep warm! We're comfortably warm here ;-) Heehee!
