Jacob's walking

Jacob started walking a couple weeks ago. He is really getting around now. If he's walking along something he can hold onto it seems as though he's almost running. He's really moving now. We have to keep a close eye on him even more now. Here are a couple videos of him walking.

Happy 1st Birthday Jacob

Jacob turned 1 on Tuesday. We had Grandma and Grandpa K and Uncle Jeremy over for supper. Here are some pictures from his big day!

Swimming!

Last weekend we went to DesMoines for a bowling tournament so we had to take Jacob swimming in the hotel pool. We tried out first with his life jacket on, but it was riding up on him so we took it off. I think he was more comfortable with it off. He had a good time swimming with Mommy and Daddy. He was giggling away at times.

Easter

For Easter we went to Aunt Darlene's house in Rochester. We had an Easter Egg hunt and good food too. Jacob found lots of eggs. He got some change for his piggy bank and some candy for Mommy and Daddy.

Jacob says "Look what I found Mommy!"

"What's an egg doing up in this tree Daddy?"

See my egg Uncle Jeremy

What do I do with this?

Look at me, I'm trying to walk by myself!

Bowling for Ashleigh's Birthday

Jacob got to go bowling for the first time at Ashleigh's 30th birthday party. She had a party at the new Treasure Island bowling alley. It was quite fun. Ellen and Dawson were there too.

He says I'm ready to roll the ball Daddy.

Is it going to be a strike?

Here are the little ones playing with their bowling balls.

He's really concentrating on the ball. He often tries to lift it up.
