It's been awhile!

It's been over a week now since we've posted. Turns out that life is busy with three kids. Not that I was taken by surprise by that or anything...I'm just saying.

Lots has happened since we blogged last. Last weekend Jake got to meet all of his Allen cousins and Aunts and Uncles. What a blast we had together! We all went to Six Flags for the day last Saturday. Scott, Dede, Logan, Carsyn and McCrae came over for dinner afterwards. Then on Sunday Mark, Teresia, Landry and Reid came over for the day. We had such a good time. On Tuesday we went to Granbury and met Momma D for lunch. The big kids went on to Sunfish with them and had the time of their lives. Papa made them each a swing and hung it from the big Oak tree. They played in the sand pile, went on boat rides, saw some goats and went fishing. You can see the pictures below. Only at Sunfish can you go fishing in your jammies. Good times. Jake and I joined them at on Friday and enjoyed time on the porch and the cooler Fall weather. There's no place like Sunfish!

Our weekend ended with a bang at FaithLyn Bragdon's Princess Tea Party Birthday bash. You'll see a picture of the rockin' Tea Pot cake that Kelli MADE for the big event. Can you believe that? We had such a great time. Thanks for the great party Bragdon Family!

And finally, you can see pictures of just how much Jake has changed. When we left the hospital he weighed 7 lbs. 5 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. At his two week check up last Monday he weighed 9 lbs. 6.4 oz. and was 21 3/4 inches long. Can you even believe it? He's gigantic. And SUPER cute. Can't get enough of those cheeks. He's such a joy. He loves his Daddy, his dinner and his bed. He's getting so alert and so strong. Loves looking around and taking it all in. He turned three weeks yesterday and I can't believe it. He'll be three years before we know it.

Enjoy the new pictures!
