Our weekend...
FRIDAY:
Friday night Gary, Michelle and Rick came over. Jake decided to join us at the table and paint in his new Mickey Mouse book. This kept him busy for a while. He wanted to keep his coat on just in case somebody decided to go outside.

SATURDAY:
We went outside as soon as Jake woke up on Saturday morning. Here he is showing off his personal football shirt.
Our friend Adolfo took some time to swing with Jake before everyone started working.
Jake and I went to play with Gary, Michelle and Rick at the lot for a couple of hours Saturday morning but when we got back Jake was ready to help the guys move the dirt pile...one piece at a time.

Supervising...


SUNDAY:
After the service Sunday morning at church Jamie and I were waiting in the CROWDED hall to pick up Jake from his sunday school class. We were no where near the door (waiting our turn) and all of a sudden I heard Jake yelling "STINKY STINKY STINKY". He saw us standing there and he was letting us know what he had done. The lady then had to yell at us that he did in fact stinky and she was getting his bag so she could change him. We were very proud parents at that moment. EVERYBODY in the hall knew Jake's bathroom (or missed the bathroom) issues and exactly who Jake belonged to.
After lunch we all went outside to play basketball before nap time.


And the best part about this weekend was Sunday when my Valentine's Day gift was delivered. Thanks to Uncle Brian, Gary, and Jamie for all of the help.

A Mickey Mouse Surprise...
New Mickey Mouse pillow and sleeping bag/blanket.
Helping Daddy vacuum. He did a great job!

Jake has decided to use his 'bobcat' bath towels as a blanket. He actually goes to the closet just to get them for that reason. I have no idea what that's about! Thanks Tracy for the blankets?

Playing outside

Since it's been so cold lately and we've been on the go, Jake hasn't been able to go outside and play very much on his new swingset so we decided that's what we were going to do Sunday.

A day at Grandmama and Papa's house...
Saturday we spent the day in Edgefield at Grandmama and Papa's house. We are always able to find something fun to do. Jamie, Jake and Papa went to the pond and Jake got to see a fox. I asked Jamie what the fox was doing and he said he was resting permenantly by the tree. I'm just glad they didn't come back with a picture of that! We also...
Played with toys..
Found the TRUE way to open up the jack-in-the-box..
Watched Aunt Suzanne open it HER way..

Saturday night with the McKee's
Saturday night we went to Charlotte to meet up with Adam, Andrea, and Maggie (soon to be here). It has been a while since we've seen the McKees and wanted to do something for them before Maggie's arrival. We can't wait to go back in a couple of weeks to meet her!
When leaving church on Sunday Jake sat in the baby carrier for a fun ride to the car. This didn't stop just in the church parking lot though. He even left like this from eating lunch. One man made a comment about the 'baby' and Jamie had to show him that it was Jake. I know that man thought we were all crazy.

More pictures from the weekend...
Jake and Emily.
Playing around with Daddy.
