Jacob

We were privileged to have our friends from Stephen Baker Photography (find them on facebook) come to our home to take some gorgeous pictures of little Jacob. Here are some of our favourite ones:

Thank you to Stephen and his lovely wife and assistant Amanda for their creative genius. 

Jacob is 6 and a half months now. He's eagerly learning how to crawl. Which means he's on the floor more now. I'm trying not to get too obsessed over cleaning the floors too much (last week I mopped like 4 times, which is excessive for me). After all, he needs to build up his immunity, right?
He is adorable. I love every minute with him and his cute little sounds (especially his "ta ta's"). I love him from the top of his soft fuzzy head to bottom of those cute little toes.  I love you Jacob, through and through.

Louie and I recently escaped for 2 days to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary. Nonna was kind enough to look after Sienna, Michael and Josh while Louie and I (plus little Jacob) were away. We stayed at this romantic place in Olinda called Loft in the Mill. Just decadent. It was so nice to get away, we don't do it much these days. Ten years. WOW. Time is a funny thing. It doesn't feel like ten years, but it must be ten years because we have four children, from 8 down to under 1 to prove that we have been very busy raising children and caring for each other. I love you Louie, and each of those four little beings we've helped create, forever and ever.

I baked today with my assistant: Baker Joshy, who NEVER misses an opportunity to help me bake a cake, cupcakes, or in this case, mini m&m cookies. He's so confident cracking the eggs in the batter and holding the mixer. All by "himthelf!" I love you Josh.
