Our New Pets

Favorite New Toy

We are away on our mini-winter vacation. We left home on Tuesday night and it is now Saturday night. While we were with Mom at her conference we went to do some shopping at Walmart. The nurse was doing flu shots so we had to get ours. We didn't want to but Mom got us each a Zhu Zhu pet, which made it all better. The flu shot didn't hurt much anyway.

I will now introduce you to my Kung Zhu, named Azer Master Kage. We are trying to upload video but for now I have a couple of pictures of him for you.

Jacob's Joke of the Day

Q: What does a monster eat after he's been to the dentist?
A: The dentist

Good-bye Dino Shoes

Jacob took this photo of his favorite Dino shoes that had to go tonight when I took a look at exactly how worn out they had become! Jacob and James each had a pair that were gifts from Aunt Lynda & Great Grandma. They absolutely loved them because they were designed with cool dinosaur pictures on the sides and also made dino footprints when they walked in sand or mud (patterns on the soles). Super cool because these boys LOVE their dinos. Anyway, there were holes in the soles and almost holes in the toes -- so Jacob took the pictures and we said good-bye. Maybe we'll find some cool replacements in Florida in March. Good-bye cool dino shoes.

Thrilling Dance Moves!

Jacob loves to dance to Beat It & Thriller. He wanted to post this video on his blog.

Jacob says, "I like Michael Jackson because he is the best singer in the world. My favorite songs are Thriller & Beat It. Below you will see me dancing to Beat It with my brothers. Someday I hope to take dance lessons and learn how to be a performer (singer & dancer) when I get bigger."

Jacob's Post

Jacob has taken an interest in photography today. This smilebox contains pictures taken by him but starts out with pictures from his day of skating with the Guelph Storm.

Enjoy.

From Jacob: "Jacob's pictures are here. I took these pictures with Mommy's camera. I hope you like them".

Hello again from Las Vegas!

Hello Jacob! How are you? We are good. We are having fun in Las Vegas. We had a good day of sightg-seeing near Red Rock Canyon. We also stopped and went horseback riding, which was very cool. Hopefully someday you will want to come horseback riding. Mommy likes it very much and I think Daddy finds it pretty fun too. The horses we rode were very big. Daddy's horse was called "Big Joe". It was a big, brown horse. Pretty neat. We will tell you more when we see you on Monday morning.

Hi Jacob!!!

Dear Jacob,

How are you today? We just talked to you on Skype. It was really nice to see your cute face. We really miss you and we are looking forward to seeing you when we get home late tomorrow night. We will sneak in to give you a kiss, even though you will be sleeping. Below is a picture of Daddy playing pool at Bally's. This was his first night of pool when he won all 3 games. He plays again tonight. Right now we are heading to Red Rock Canyon to see the sights.

I told you that we have some special presents for you and I thought I would give you a sneak peek of one. Can you tell what it is? I think it is just what you wanted.

See you tomorrow, lovey.

Hello dear Jacob,

I am creating this blog so that I can write you little notes whenever I feel like it and you can read them when you get older. We are in Las Vegas right now so I am sending you a note that Grandma and Grandpa can read to you. We are in our condo right now but will be going out after supper. Daddy is playing pool here and has done really well so far. He will tell you about it when we see you on Monday. We will be home late Sunday night but you might not wake up when we get there.
Anyway, we are thinking about you all the time and we miss you very much. As the oldest of our sons we have many treasured memories of our times with you. It is hard to believe that it won't be long until you turn 6 years old!

See you soon Jacob,

love from Mommy & Daddy

P.S: The picture is of Daddy at Hoover Damn.
