I know it's been forever since I last posted.  I can give any excuse you could think of...but I guess it comes down to laziness!  Although, I do have to share how crazy my son has been lately!  He has been teething the last month, with productive results!  Four molars and one more bottom tooth to add to his collection!  Whew!  It hasn't been a very pleasant month.  Hopefully we'll get a small break before teeth make their arrival! 

Jacob is also quite the dare-devil.  I am amazed every day how "boy" he is!  He is soooo different than Gracie - He studies things to see how they work, and hasn't found anything yet he doesn't want to climb.  His favorites are the coffee table and on top of the dinning room table.  When he achieves his goal he does a little "jig" to celebrate!  He makes me laugh, and I thoroughly enjoy him - even when he's a little grouch.

Changing the subject....my little family went on a day trip to the foothills last weekend.  We were going to drive to Potwisha, a campground just inside the National Park entrance, and hike on a trail Mike knew about.  We packed a lunch and arrived in no time!  We started our hike, but unfortunately we didn't get 20 minutes up the trail when it started to rain.  Gracie, Mike and I loved it, but Jacob didn't see the fun in it.  We also stopped at Reimer's and ate some homemade ice cream, and Gracie got to spend her allowance on her most favorite thing....candy, of course.
