Roxy's new friend

Roxy, our golden, had a friend over this weekend! We kept Erika and Frank's golden (friends from church) this weekend and the two of them quickly became friends....so cute! Jake just loved watching them chase each other and play. Funny thing is...we knew Roxy was small and looks especially small when we have her shaved. BUT - we had no idea just how small. Lady is 90 pounds and dwarfs Roxy! BUT - size didn't matter to either dog - they played like they were a perfect match!

This was the best I could do...Roxy HATES cameras!

He was laughing like this because the dogs were chasing each other in his room!

Watching every move those two make!

Oh, now he reallly thinks they are funny!!! :)

Bananas

We've been giving Jake baby food bananas for some time now...he loves them! Well, I went to Marion for a weekend to see my family and Jake got to try banana pudding! WOW - he LOVED IT! Seems his favorite dessert is also his pappaw's and his daddy's! :)

Here's a video of him eating his grown-up dessert! Notice how he reaches for the spoon and his mouth is already open!

Well, when we got back to Cabot, I decided I would buy him some real bananas. I thought--surely he'll love them! I have NEVER seen him look so disgusted. I guess its a texture thing. It was the worst face ever! ha!

In other news, I went to New Jersey last week for work. When I returned home, my husband had a black eye!! I wish I could tell you that he saved an old woman from being mugged, but it is just a basketball injury.

Hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather as much as we are! Have a great week!

Play Hard!!

Just thought this was cute enough to share!

Social Butterfly

Wow! Jake had a BIG day! Jake was invited to several birthday parties this weekend, but we were only able to make two of them. Jake had a blast! First, we went to Max McNulty's 2nd birthday party. Max's mom, Tabitha, is a friend of mine from Marion. She did an AWESOME job with her airplane theme.... airline tickets for invites, clouds hanging from the ceiling, airplane wings on Max's booster seat, airplane muffins...I mean...everything AIRPLANE! It was so cute. Jake was such a good little guy during the party, and the cutest part- everytime another kid got close to him, he squeeled with delight! Jake LOVES kids! He even gave Harper a kiss....so sweet! (see video at the end)

Max the birthday boy!

After Max's party, we went to the mall to get Jake some new jeans. (Poor guy has outgrown EVERYTHING!) We also got him some swim trunks for this summer. We plan to spend LOTS of time on the lake! We hung out at the mall long enough to do a little shopping, feed jake lunch and eat some chick-fil-a! (my fav!)

Then, we headed to Cabot for Jack's birthday party. Jack is Jake's cousin. Greg and Jack's dad, Brad, are cousins. Jack had his party at the Cabot Fun Factory, which turns out...is a GREAT place for kid's birthday parties. They had a cute little play area for babies, so we- of course- let Jake check it out. All the bigger kids (big being 4) were enjoying the blow up jumpers, so I climbed up to the top of one with Jake and let him slide down with Mommy. I'm sure it looked ridiculous...a grown woman with a baby in tow climbing up with a bunch of 4 year olds. (see video at the bottom)

Playing hard in the baby section!

We finished the day off with a visit to our neighbors. Nathan and Stephanie got a new puppy - Cash. So, we took Jake over to check it out. Jake wasn't too impressed with the puppy, but he sure does love Nathan and Stephanie!

Hope everyone had a great weekend...we sure did!
