He's able to pull himself up to it and walk across the carpet, occasionally falling to his knees. He is SO PROUD of himself and I love watching his sweet little face look around for adoring fans when he pulls himself up to a standing position. He looks around like, "are you gonna clap for me?" and gets a huge, cheesy grin when we cheer. Jake has a new theory now on having more children. He thinks since we've hit perfection with the first one, we better just stick with one 'cause perfection couldn't possibly happen twice. :) I'm okay with that for now...wait 'til Silas starts to talk back and get in trouble - maybe Jake will change his attitude on how perfect Silas is. ;) For now I have to agree, though...he is definitely PERFECT!
Look at that wonderful face!! Doesn't it make you want to snatch him up and kiss all over him?? I'm so thankful I get the chance to love all over him daily!!
I think back to how badly I wanted a girl. I was desperate and absolutely convinced that I was having a girl and if I said I wasn't a little bit disappointed to find out I was expecting a boy, I would be lying. I can't even begin to imagine how much I would be missing out on if I'd had a girl! This boy stuff is even better than anyone ever told me. All close girlfriends with boys assured me that they are in fact wonderful, but I had my hesitations. Fast forward to now and I can't imagine my life being any different. I live with the two amazing boys - my hubby and my son and I am absolutely content and thrilled with having two boys in my life! My dear friend, Jenn, put it best when she said that having a son was like having a mini-me of your favorite boy (your husband). And anyone that has seen Jake and Silas know that Silas is Jake's mini-me. :) I do love and I am so, so grateful for these two amazing blessings!
