Posted in Jacob by Mel on the November 4th, 2008

And, I’ve been lazy…I have more photos to post, but I just wanted to get these out there…we have another RASH epidemic!!! Ugh…I’m not excited!

First, a cute photo of me, with my shirt on!

Rash…

Now, a photo with my spots…there are a few on my legs & arms as well…I thought I was over getting these random rashes!!!

Mom promises more photos, soon! Hey, we’ll just be watching the election results tonight, so she doesn’t have anything else to do, right??? ;) ~ Jacob.

Mini-Meatloaf…it’s a winner!

Posted in Melissa by Mel on the September 19th, 2008

So…I know I should be sharing PC recipes on Jacob’s website, but this one is tooo good to not share, and too simple!

I hope everyone will be able to read it…if not, here’s the recipe:

Ingredients: 1 pound extra lean ground beef, 1 pkg (6 oz) stuffing mix, 1 tsp garlic powder, 3/4 cup barbecue sauce, 3/4 cup shredded cheese.

Directions: Heat oven to 375 F; Mix meat, stuffing mix, 1 cup water & garlic powder; Press into 12 muffin cups sprayed with cooking spray; Make an indentation in the center of each mini loaf with a spoon; fill with sauce; Bake for 30 minutes or until cooked through (160 F); Top with cheese; bake for 5 minutes or more until cheese melts. Serves 6.

ENJOY them as we did! :)

Menu Planning…

Posted in Melissa by Mel on the September 16th, 2008

So…I decided I needed to get better control of my kitchen & what I am doing in it! So…here’s the plan for the week…

Breakfasts - Monday through Thursday: Yogurt, Oatmeal, Fruit, Toast, & Cereal - variety depending on mood.

Lunches - Monday: went to lunch with Fleeta before she left town; Tuesday: Spaghetti (I LOVE the new pouches for the microwave for sauce!); Wednesday: Soup/Sandwiches; Thursday: Grilled Cheese & Fruit; Friday: Daddy is off, we might go out somewhere cheap!

Dinners - Monday: Leftovers (soup for Jacob; Hash for Daddy; Toast for Mommy); Tuesday: Mini-meatloaves - I hope they’re good! with rice & veggies; Wednesday: Chicken Club Ring (PC recipe); Thursday: Frozen dinner from a few weeks ago - Ribs & Augratins with a veg. Friday: Leftovers - there are sure to be some! (might flip Thursday & Friday, too)

As for the weekend…they are always so touch & go…and, I include Friday’s in the weekend because Shad works 4 10’s now…and he’s off. Friday morning, I plan on making a Quiche (yummy…I did this with Heidi last week & it was soooo good!). Saturday & Sunday, we’ll probably stick to the above for breakfasts unless we have cinnamon rolls - they’ve been a hit lately!

I’ll keep everyone posted on our menus as the weeks go by & how I am to sticking with them!

A birthday party for Wyatt…

And…photos with my friend, Ashley. I didn’t get any with Wyatt, or if I did, Mom didnt’ get them to post! Aren’t these cute?

Unfortunately, Mommy had to work a tennis tournament, so she couldn’t come with for the festivities! I had a pretty good day…went to the party, got to see Mom at work, and then hung out at home with Daddy…can’t complain about that!

That’s it for today! ~ Jacob.

 

 

Another fun day at home with Alyssa…

Posted in Jacob by Mel on the July 10th, 2008

Here are some photos from today…Alyssa was here with me to play all day.

Alyssa

Alyssa - smiling as usual!

Jacob!

And Jacob with his grin…

Both - on the couch!

The day would not be complete without a picture on the couch! We LOVE to sit on the couch.

Earlier, I gave Alyssa a hug, but Mom didn’t have her camera & I didn’t do it again…maybe next time she’ll get a photo! ~Jacob.

The fourth of July…

Posted in Jacob by Mel on the July 5th, 2008

Well, we got out to the boat for the afternoon…I got to run around with my lifejacket on, and see my cousins, Lauren & Kate, along with their parents, my Aunt Regina & Uncle Andy. It was a good time…

Jacob & Daddy on the boat

Here are a few photos from inside the boat…I wasn’t in there during this time, I was outside…

Melissa with Kate

Regina with Lauren

We had good food, took a ride down the river, and as soon as we got back to the dock, we left for home. It had been a long day in a confined space…and, I was ready for a nap! ~ Jacob.

I’m going to be a big brother…

Posted in Jacob by Mel on the July 2nd, 2008

Well, Mom will finally let me tell everyone, since we are 12 weeks along & there have been no issues…she didn’t spend last night in the ER, like she did with me, at the same point in her pregnancy. We are glad about that!

As for me…no new photos right now…Mom needs to get working on it! I am getting into having temper tantrums & not eating due to my teeth that have decided to emerge…I’m getting the pointy teeth on top, and Mom thinks I might be getting the molars on top as well. So, I have fits about it…get frustrated when I can’t do something I think I want or should be able to do…and, Mom tries to just deal with me, hoping I don’t bite her - yes, I’ve gotten into that!

Other than that, we’ll be making an appearance - that is, me and my mom - in Minnesota, hopefully arriving on July 31st with Auntie Karissa, courtesy of Uncle Jason & NWA. Be in prayer that all our flights will be open with enough seating for us!

More later…hopefully, I’ll convince Mom to get some photos, too! ~ Jacob.

Happy Father’s Day!

Posted in Jacob by Mel on the June 16th, 2008

We spent the day just hanging out as a family…and then we had dinner at Nana’s house, complete with flying the airplane on the golf course!  Here are the photos:

Running on the golf course!

It’s fun to run on some really nice grass!

Bill flying the airplane

And chase the airplane when it is flying around!

Jacob & Daddy

I really thought it was fun to have the balloon, and Pops decided to clip it to the back of my shirt…I ran around the house with it!

We had a really good time! I think Dad enjoyed his second father’s day…Jacob.
