Holbrook Family: Jacob & Eliza

Jacob & Eliza

Liza's now 6 months. It's crazy how fast the time flies. She's a happy and active little girl that loves her big brother and sister so much. Seeing the relationships those three have together just makes me so happy. We all just adore Eliza and what she brings to our family.

Two crazies and the random things they do together during the day

Jacob is now 3!!! Crazy. He was so excited for his birthday - and I think the gifts were just a bonus. He just loved the attention and the fact that we were celebrating him. We had a mini party with my family on the 9th complete with a Spiderman cake.

Then on the 12th I asked him what he wanted to do - go to the zoo, visit dad at work, go to the children's museum - and he chose having his best friend Aiden over to play cars. Thankfully Aiden was available and willing to play. Such cute boys.

Then that night Jacob got presents from us - a Spiderman skateboard & a Spiderman 'house.' Can you tell what he likes?

Then we were off to Red Robin with grandparents (and a couple uncles and aunt). While there Jacob got to open a few cousin presents and then enjoy a big slice of mud pie.

Happy Birthday Jacob! We love you!!!
