Yeah, ummm…. Elias can repeat just about anything we say at this point!  Whoops!  And this one can’t be blamed on me!  We were driving home from the grocery store tonight and a pick up truck stopped in the middle of the road.  Nikki said: “What the Hell?” and Elias turned around and repeated it……

Well my parents are finally home from Antigua for the winter!  That meant Elias and I got to go down to the boat Wednesday night so Elias could see them (they called a half an hour from the dock during tub time).  We all then went down the next night so Mom and Dad could…

Well this week was quite interesting… Isabella had a fever Tuesday morning.  Nikki called the pediatrician and took her in.  They really couldn’t find anything obviously wrong with her so it was officially a fever of unexplained origins…  At her age (<2 month, just, she’s now over 2 months!) that meant a trip to Hasbro…

Another great week with both kids.  Isabella is 8 weeks old today.  She just keeps getting bigger and bigger and is still a great baby!  Elias is asking more and more questions.  Every where we go he asks why and which way etc.  We had a pretty slow weekend this weekend, Elias and I did…

Not a whole heck of a lot to report this week, and that’s a good thing!  Isabella is getting big and is still VERY relaxed.  She’s smiling more and more which is adorable.  We’ve all been enjoying her, including Elias.  He’s doing well but is VERY talkative and questions EVERYTHING these days.  Most of the…

Another funfilled week for us at the Jacobsen house.  The gang (Nikki, Elias, Isabella and Debbie) came up to the zoo during the week.  I was able to meet them for lunch which was awesome (and explains all the iPhone zoo pics).  We have season passes and this year we have a different kind where…

I can’t believe it, but Isabella’s a month only already?  And actually, but the time you read this a full 5 weeks as well.  Time flies, especially with two kids in the house.  Not much to report this week.  She had a checkup and is doing very well, she’s 10lb 15oz and 22.75″ long already. …

And happy 4 week old day to Isabella!  I’m writing this a day late because we had so much fun over at Gigi and Pop Pop’s yesterday I had no energy left to process photos, nevermind write up a blog post… So happy Easter everyone!  I had a 3 day weekend, so Friday after Elias…

OK, I probably need to come up with some better names for these blog posts, but you’re here for the pictures anyway am I right? Not a whole lot to report this week. Isabella went to here 2 week checkup on Monday where she was 9lbs 4oz and 22.25″ long(if not I’ll be told to…

Well, everything is still going pretty well here on the baby front!  Isabella is only waking Nikki once during the night which means Nikki is usually pretty well rested.  Elias is still very helpful and caring of his sister and keeps telling us things big brothers need to do to help (most of which are…

Isabella is already a week old, hard to believe!  So far we’ve really been enjoying her and everything has been far more relaxed this time around.  We’re not sure if she’s more relaxed or if we are or if it’s a combination of both, but everything has been going great with her.  She’s letting Nikki…

I’ve done these a few times in the past, but figured I was due for an update since I hadn’t shared anything from my phone (beyond facebook) since our trip to Antigua in March…  Speaking of facebook, check out the “social media” tab at the top for links to my facebook, twitter and flickr!  Enjoy.…
