Snow/Sunny Days

Well March has definitely been an interesting month. We started March with a snowstorm. We were sitting in church and the big fat snowflakes were just pouring down. It was beautiful, but of course that had everyone down here in the South freaking out. Needless to say grocery stores were packed and schools were cancelled on Monday. So that meant Jake's friend Matty didn't have to go to school so he came to visit us. The boys had a ball playing together...they even tossed a ball back and forth.

Of course down here in the South we have some crazy weather...snowed one weekend and was in the 70's the next. Go figure. So we had a great sunny weekend playing outside with Jake. He loves the cornhole set. He kept putting the bean bags in the holes. It was really cute. I can't wait for the weather to really start being nice enough to play outside everyday. He loves it.

Jake started swimming again. He LOVED it! He was literally shrieking with delight. He, of course, was so excited he forgot everything he had learned previously but he had such a fun time! We are looking forward to our neighborhood pool opening.

He also has some new teeth coming in. His two front teeth are trying their hardest to push through...poor little Jake is not liking it one bit! But the tooth pain has not slowed his eating habits. Good grief! He will eat anything, chicken nuggets, green beans and grapes are his new favorites. We just gave him his first pancake today. He kind of spit it out and then realized his mistake and popped it back in. Mmmmm!

On a sad note my grandmother passed away Monday. She was truly a great lady. She will definitely be missed and remembered by everyone that knew her. I flew out to NY for the funeral and had to leave Jake for 3 days. It is so wonderful to have friends that really come through in your time of need. So thank you so much to Leslie and Hilary for watching Jake for us. I know he had a great time playing with his buddies Brendan and Davis.
