36-Weeks

We are coming down the home stretch... Our little girl will be here in 4 weeks. We had our last ultrasound on Thursday and she currently weighs 5lbs 4oz. Looks like she will be about 7lbs 4oz at delivery. Jake give 'baby' kisses and hugs every night, so it should be interesting when she isn't in mommy's belly any more.
We will update the blog when she is born!

Jake's First Trip to the Beach

Jake and I went to the beach for a week with my mom (Jake's Mom-mom). It was a nice trip however, a 13-month old at the beach isn't very relaxing. He loved putting the sand and the shells in his mouth so the majority of my time was spent making sure he didn't put his hands in his mouth. All in all, it was a fun trip and I am looking forward to the beach next year... when Jake's a year older!

First Haircut

Jake had his first haircut on August 1st. It was needed but we didn't take too much off in fear that the curls would all disappear. Fortunately, he has curly hair like his mom... so the curls are still around!

And I'm off...

Jake is officially walking. He has been making attempts at it for about 2 months; holding your hand most the time but now he is walking around the house like a mad man all by himself! He will pull up on anything he can so he can walk. His next step will be figuring how to stand up on his own without pulling up on something. It should be getting interesting around the Musselman house now that the Jake man is walking!

P.S. Jake is carrying the basket because he likes to fill it with different things around the house... such as toys, keys, remotes, coasters, sunglasses, etc.

Jake and Daddy go to the Phils Game

I recently went on a girl's weekend getaway with my sister on a cruise to the Bahamas. Jay and Jake spent lots of time with the grandparents on both sides! It was no surprise to me because not only do the grandparents get to see their grandson, but they also provided dinner for the boys while Mommy was gone!

Jay and Jake went to the Phils game on Sunday July 12th and as luck would have it, Jay was able to trade our two tickets in Left field for one ticket in the DIAMOND CLUB only 6 ROWS OFF THE FIELD! All the good stuff happens when I am gone!

Knoebels

We went to Knoebels in July and it was a great time! Jake LOVED the giant ball pit. He sank to the bottom and couldn't move but loved watching the other kids jump around him. He loved the food which is no surprise since our little man is an endless pit! Jake also enjoyed camping for the first time... he enjoyed it so much that he woke us up at 3:45am to play on the last night! Boy that was fun!

Jake's First Birthday!

Jake turned ONE on June 25th. We can't believe that he's already 1! This year just flew by... it's so hard to believe that a year ago we were bringing him home from the hospital.
We celebrated Jake's birthday on Saturday June 27th. We had to push our party back 2hours because a terrible storm knocked out our electricity. Luckily it came back on about an hour and a half before the party.
The party was great and Jake seemed to really enjoy himself. Thanks to all that were able to make the party!
