Jacob is a BIG Boy!

I took Jacob to his one month check-up last week and the doctor confirmed what I already knew... Jacob David is a big boy! I knew he was at least above average based on the large quantities of milk he consumes all day and night. As of Friday he weighs 11 pounds 4 oz. (80%) and is 23 inches tall (90%). I thought he looked bigger than most one-month-olds:)

Bathtime!

Jacob and Abby's PJs - I've already had to pack away Jacob's because he is too long!


Going for a walk. Abby is attempting to hide Jacob's eyes from the sun. And yes, she is wearing a swimsuit - she's very ready for swim season!

Several recent pictures...

The NEW Reyes Family of Four
Abby is really into headbands lately - she just clearly wears them in her own way:)
Mama and her two babies - Don't worry I know it doesn't look like it but I know that you are supposed to support a newborn's head.

Our Two Kids

Wow! Life has been so crazy for us lately - sorry I've been so bad about updating the blog and posting pictures. In less than two months we've celebrated Abby's third birthday, my (29th!) birthday, Jacob's birth and mine and Matthew's 7th wedding anniversary. Everything is going well for our family of four and we are adjusting to less sleep and all that comes with having a newborn in the house. Jacob is a joy and Abby is the perfect big sister. We have had lots of help from our wonderful family and friends. Our friends here in San Antonio have kept us well fed and we've had Auntie Becki, Aunt Kristine, Aunt Judi, BeBe (Matthew's Mom) and Hootsie (Naomi's Mom) come to take care of us. We are thankful!
Here are a few updated pics of the family.

Jacob in the "tent" - one of Abby's favorite places to play as a newborn, too.

Is that a little smile? We can't wait for Jacob to really start smiling intentionally because when he smiles in his sleep he has the greatest smile!

Uncle B and Hannah with Jacob - they came through town for a visit and brought us a delicious dinner. Thank you two - we had fun with you!

Abby looking super cute before preschool last week.
