So, obviously Jacob wasn't allowed to use the jar of sprinkles anymore after this. Yes there was one of those shaker things on it but that doesn't stop little tiny sprinkles from pouring out!
This cookie actually had a lot of sprinkles on it (out of the one's Zach did). He put exactly 1 sprinkle on all of the others.
Tater Tot being Tater Tot. Cute.
Now, fast forward to today's fun! I had my first trimester screening scheduled for 8am this morning. Zach woke up feeling miserable so Daniel hung out with him while I headed to the hospital. This is the screening where they check for things like Down's syndrome, Trisomy 13 and Trisomy 18. All of my measurements looked good and now we're waiting for the bloodwork to come out to compare all of the numbers! Anyways, since it was an ultrasound we have MORE PICTURES!! I need to come up with a nickname for the little booger...we won't find out the sex until my next scheduled ultrasound (Feb 10th! my daddy's birthday!! wouldn't finding out he's having a granddaughter be an awesome birthday present??? fingers crossed. another boy would be fun too!)
Little booger's profile.
Another profile where you can see the belly too.
Look closely and you can see one of baby's feet above the "y" in belly.
There's a hand right at baby's chin too!
Front view of the face on the left and you can see a left arm and hand too!
The boys were both so excited to see pictures of the little one. I'm going to try to take both boys (and Daniel of course!) to my next ultrasound. I think they'll love seeing the baby move! They are both loving this baby so much already.
Now, even more excitement!! Christmas came a few days early for the boys. We've been promising them bunk beds for a while now. My parents bought them bunk beds for their house and they love sleeping in them there...we figured this was as good of a time as any to get them for them. We went ahead and set them up for them today since we wouldn't be able to actually give them to them on Christmas day (well, I guess we could've hauled them to VA and back but yeah, that wasn't happening). Anyways, they love them.
I'm not sure whether they were more excited about actually getting the bunk beds or the fact that they could reach the pull string of the ceiling fan/light. We had a discussion about nobody touching them without permission. And yes, I know Zach's sheets are boring. He wants tractor sheets like his big brother so I'll have to see what I can find! I'm thinking of making each of them a quilt! (and yes, I also know that I need to fix the paint stripes in their room).
Jake trying out Zach's bed!
Zach in his new bed! Of course he'd climb under the sheet to check it out but won't actually sleep under the sheet! He only likes his blankie!! I also had to put a white pillowcase on the pillow before he would sleep on it. My kids are weird like that. I tried to convince him it matched the sheets...he didn't care.
yes, that would be Jacob.
Jacob again in the box from one of their mattresses. He wanted us to cut a window in the box for him which wouldn't have been a problem if we hadn't been trying to put the bunk beds together. He went downstairs and got one of their butter knives (which is really just a rounded piece of metal with a plastic handle) and sawed away until he "carved" his box (much like his pumpkin that he did totally by himself for Halloween). He's really pretty stinkin' creative (& very determined!)!!
I had to include this one of Ringo too. Daniel sent Jake's old mattress down the steps and Ringo apparently thought it was a doggie trampoline. He kept jumping on and off of it...
should I mention that Jacob and Zach kept doing the same?
