My favorite pics of the JACOBSEN family




Having both of my sisters and their families so close is a dream come true. They are my best friends, I call them several times a week (sometimes several times a day...). All of the cousins love getting together, it will be so wonderful for them to grow up so close to one another! Here are my favorite easter pictures of the Jacobsen family. (PS I made Katie's headband too...super sweet, huh?!)

Easter Morning



So, the Easter bunny was good to the kids this year, as you can see. Pearl's poses crack me up lately...Mom, will you take a picture of me in my new flip flops? Oh wait, let me grab my stuffed tiger...


She was so enchanted with her new easter dress and the way I did her hair. She was convinced that everyone at church would be amazed at how beautiful she was. I was so proud of the flower clip in her hair - I actually made it! Impressive, huh!?!

Pictures Pearl Took

Here are some pictures Pearl took and what she had to say about them..
This slime mold is cool. I think everybody would like to see it.
This is Yosemite Sam. It's cute. I got some of my mom in this picture.
This is my room. It's pretty cute. I want everyone to see it.
This one is our cows. I think it would be cool for everyone to see it.

There you have it, folks. Our budding photographer!

Happy Easter

Ok, so I took a MILLION picures on Easter...we took family pictures of each group, then morning pictures, then egg hunt pictures...you can just imagine. It also took about 50 shots to get a good one of ALL the Weir cousins together...I was proud (and relieved) that one of them was actually cute! Here are some of my favorites, I have enough to keep me blogging for days, so stay tuned...I'll try to post some every day this week:)


This was when Katie finally lost it, well, not so much lost it, but Pearl's dress is really slippery and she kept gradually slipping down...Mara had to intervene...
Can you believe it? Not ice cream (skittles this time) but they were watching QUITE a show put on by Annie and Mara...I wanted to look away from the camera and see what was going on a few times myself...

Amy 24 weeks



So, it continues to grow...though Sara may have way more (and cuter) belly pictures, I definitely have way more (though cuter is debatable) of a belly...

Eating Squid

Jared has done some bizzare things to our children. Like convincing Pearl that "mermaids eat raw fish" You should see her pull the raw fish off of the top of the sushi and suck it down. He also gets her to eat anchovies - like plain from the can. Usually, though, Sam has better sense. After a conference in Japan town, he brough the kids some dried squid, and THEY ATE IT!!! Needless to say, their mother did NOT partake. It was all I could do to refrain from making faces and noises when I saw them eating it! Well, hopefully their weird food trying habit will serve them well in life....the funniest part was that Pearl's only stipulation was that it was healthy. "Is is a 5?" (her kinder teacher's healthy food rating system) Yes, Pearl fish is very healthy for you. "Ok." Weirdos.
