Great Grandma Jean's House

We went to visit Grandma Jean this week in Maricopa, AZ. We had a really nice visit. Jake just loves his Great Grandma Jean - and her teddy bear that say "I love you" when you push it's paw.

Now if he could only balance ...

New Cousin Mylie

This is Jake's new beautiful cousin Mylie. She was born July 9th to Steve & Amy Hoff in Chico, CA. These pictures were taken when she was about 4 weeks old.

We are in front of Shubert's Ice Cream shop - this is where everyone in the picture (except Papa Rich & Grandma Debbie) had their first ice cream. Shubert's has been open in Chico since 1938 and makes the best ice cream and candy all in their little shop! It has been a family tradition for over 33 years to go get ice cream cones and walk around Downtown Chico.

Jake and Lewis

I know, four pictures of the same thing is a bit much. I just couldn't decide which picture to chose. We are so happy that Lewis is being so good with Jake. Jake LOVES Lewis and is fascinated by him - whether watching him walk by or petting him.

"Singing"

Jake is getting quite vocal - especially at mealtime and when I am on the phone. If I talk to Brian on the speaker phone, Jake immediately squeals when he hears his Daddy's voice. Pretty darned cute!
