Hope you are all doing well. Jake has been a busy little guy lately. Last weekend we ventured up to the outlet malls and bought Jake lots of new summer clothes. Just in time too since this weekend it hit 90 degrees! After shopping Jake helped Payton celebrate her first birthday. At least for a little while before he fell asleep. We had a great time catching up with friends.
Unfortunately Monday brought a trip to the doctor. Jake's first ever "sick" visit. He was grabbing his ears and was not sleeping well and the doctor confirmed two ear infections. Poor little guy. But we got some antibiotics and Jake was off and running. Well maybe not running but he loves walking. He just laughs and is so proud of himself. He wants to run but his feet just can't keep up. It is so cute to see how determined he is to walk. Today Brian taught him to get up when he falls with out grabbing on to something so I have a feeling he will be running very soon.
Thursday night Jake went to his very first baseball game. Uncle Johnny's team (Charlotte Knights) was in town playing the Gwinnett Braves. Jake isn't really in to sitting still so we did a lot of walking around the stadium. Saturday night Johnny pitched and the MacIsaacs, Berrys and Fingers all came to root him on. It was a great time and we were glad so many people came. Jake conked out around the 7th inning so we had to leave a little early to take him home. But Johnny did get the win so it was a great evening.
Hope you all have a great week and enjoy the sunshine!

Happy Easter
I hope you have all had a nice holiday. We traveled to Sandersville this weekend to see Brian's family. Jake was especially excited to see his cousin John Payne.
We had a great weekend hanging around the house and Brian even got to play his favorite game...cornhole. Of course he had to stomach the red and black bean bags (Joe is a big Georgia fan). Sunday Jake had his first easter egg hunt. He found a few eggs then plopped down to see what was inside. Then he figured it was more fun to play with the empty eggs so John Payne took his candy off his hands for him.
Jake is walking much more these days. He stands himself up and off he goes until he falls and then he just crawls off. It is really cute. But day by day he is getting more and more steady on his feet. Before I know it he will be running all over the place.
Now we are looking forward to our neighborhood pool opening and in June our trip to the beach. It can't come soon enough!

Spring is Here!
I hope you all have had a great couple of weeks. We have definitely been enjoying the sunshine. We have had such nice weather Jake is able to go outside and play now. He loves it outside. He constantly wanders to the door and reaches for the doorknob.
We have had lots of playdates with friends and Jake's friend Matty turned one. He had a fun birthday party and Jake was all over that place. He had a great time and totally crashed as soon as he got home.
The big news is Jake has taken his first steps. He has been walking along couches, tables, cabinets (anything really) but he hasn't let go. We were in Sandesrville this weekend and playing in the yard and he just walked to his juice. We even got some of his steps on video. He is so unsteady its really cute. I uploaded a video of him walking. Go to the Baby video tab and see his first steps.
We are looking forward to the pool opening in our neighborhood and the summer starting. He loves his little friends and they all have such fun together. Hopefully we will have lots of playdates and park fun! We are also getting a zoo pass so we will definitely be spending time with the animals! Can't wait!
Have a great week!
