Baby's Firsts

 We are home from our vacation in Tucson. We had so much fun. We miss Grammy and Papa like crazy but we are glad to be home with daddy again. Jacob had lots of firsts in the past week.

First Flight

He did very well on  the plane. I fed him before we got on. He slept through the flight and I fed him at the layover in Vegas. He slept the rest of the way. It's funny how many people talk to you when you have a baby.

First time in Tucson!

I don't have a picture for that...

First time at the bowling ally 

He slept through it....

First trip to the zoo

Ethan is at a super cute age for the zoo. He was all over the place.

It was a Good day for the peacocks. Its spring time which means its time to start attracting those lady peacocks who are really good at playing hard to get...

 There was a white peacock way over there

Jen and I waited by the giraffes for awhile so we could get a good spot for feeding them

Papa carried Jake for awhile when he started getting grumpy. Thanks papa!

First blowout

Yup thats right it was Jacob's first blowout. Don't ask me how it was only his first but i'm glad he's not a big messy pooper.

We were at Chick Fil A and the changing table thing was in the handicap stall which was out of order and locked so uncle Michael to the rescue! He took Jake into the mens room and cleaned him up for me. Thanks uncle Michael!

First time in the pool

He loved it... well he didn't scream so I figured he loved it. He looked like this...

Is that a love it face?

First time at a wedding

My friend Nicole got married which was the good excuse to get down to Tucson. She was gorgeous and her reception was very nice. Jacob got passed around to everyone and he was very good. I love that I can pass him to anyone.

First Easter

You can't do much with a 4 month old on Easter but Mom did put together a little basket and we dressed him up.

He loves his yellow duck.

We love how is long toes stuck out from these sandals!

First eegees!

Ok so he didn't eat it but I did and that means he got some of it right? Eegees is one of my favorite things in Tucson. I had to document it.

And here's just a couple other pictures

I love these two together 

Also you may have noticed in other pictures but Jacob is getting a very strong neck. He loves his tummy time.

Baby's First Photoshoot

We are currently in Tucson and I forgot my camera cord so none of my photos can be uploaded onto mom and dad's computer. We did get some professional pictures done at Picture People the other day. I've been getting requests to put them on my blog. So I scanned them in and here they are!

He did very well. We went to see if they could make an appointment for later this week but when we got there they said we could go next. He was happy when we got there but there really is only a hour that he is happy from when he eats to when he needs to go to sleep. The picture people took their time and when they got to us he was getting tired. We got good ones though and these were our favorite. We had just bought a cute new outfit and none of the full body pictures were all that good so you can't see his cute shorts and shoes. sorry. Well when I get home I will have a few more things to blog. Jacob and I are having lots of fun hanging out in the sun and we don't want to leave. Too bad the Costco here doesn't want an amazing employee like Jared.

Hanging out with mommy and daddy

Jacob is doing really well at sitting up and holding his head up. He really loves to sit up these days.

My First Sewing Machine

My wonderful husband talked my wonderful mother in law into buying me a sewing machine. I'm not sure how fair it was but i'm so so grateful! I love it. after weeks of looking for one and after buying one just to return one because it was no good. We finally bought one at Joannes new. But then my mom found the exact same one used in Tucson. so we returned that one and got the used one. It's definitely older but it was for sure cheaper and works just as well. 

So here she is my lovely viking

My first project was Jacob's easter vest

It was my very first time doing button holes and buttons... it turned out a little lopsided.
