Your Tenth Birthday!!!


















Today you turned double digits! A big deal at your age I guess (I know that it was big deal for me when I was that age). You were at your mom's for your actual birthday (and I heard that you got a new TV in your room - lucky you!). You are spending winter break at your dad's house this year so we got to celebrate with you on Monday evening. Daddy, Sam and I got you some new U of M pajamas and the movie "Cars." And since you are getting to that stage where you like to pick out your own things and we never know what you really want, we got you a gift card to Best Buy to have your own little shopping trip! You were really excited about that and couldn't wait to go shopping with it! We had some cake and Sam helped you blow out the candles! I hope you had a great 10th birthday! We love you, bud!

Here are all the pictures I took from your birthday - click here

Jacob's Own Page

I have decided that since I cannot seem to keep up with the scrap booking anymore, but I still want to place to keep pictures, milestones and just day-to-day stories in one place, that I am going to start a blog for each of the kids.

Most of this blog will start from Jacob's tenth year (since I already have a scrapbook that is kinda sorta half done for his first years through kindergarten and another one kinda sorta started almost finished for his school years of kindergarten through fifth grade).

So whoever wants to see anything and everything about Jacob just come on over here! (I am still keeping the family blog, which I will post things about the entire family.)

Note: This will be written as if I am talking to Jacob, since this is really their memento and I want them to be able to go back and read this like I was telling them a story about themselves.
