The Picarelli Family Grows!: January 2010

This month Jacob turned 16 months...he is growing so fast! He had a doctors appointment and now weighs 24lbs and is 32inches tall. Big Boy! Jacob is getting better at talking and communicating, and always lets you know exactly what he wants! He loves to sing and dance along with the Backyardagins and Spongebob Squarepants, and shouts with glee when he hears them come on the TV! Jacob is working on feeding himself with both fork and spoon, though he is quite the picky eater (mostly he likes to eat crackers and goldfish). We had a wonderful Christmas, spending Christmas Eve with the Brooks side of the family and Christmas Day/weekend with the Picarelli side in Pennsylvania. Jacob still doesn't quite get the whole idea of Christmas, but definitely enjoyed seeing and opening all the presents! We had a great visit with both sides of the family, lots of food, sharing, and good memories. We also were blessed to find out that JACOB IS GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER! Yes, Dave and I are expecting again and are due August 14, 2010. 2009 was a year of many blessings for the Picarelli Family!
