It is hard to believe that, as of today, Jacob is already 8 months old. Just 4 months away from his first birthday. It seems like just last week that he started eating solid foods, but that was almost 2 months ago. Jacob has spent the past two weeks off from daycare and hanging out with mommy. Today was his first day back. He went to the Aquarium of the Pacific for the first time over the weekend and was fascinated by all of the sea life.

Since he has been home for the past two weeks, I have had the privilege of waking up to his laughter as he and mommy would play in the mornings. Then I would jump out of bed and head over to see him. As soon as he sees me, he will just give me a big smile. It is one of the best feelings in the world to be able to make your child smile like that.

These past 8 months have gone by quickly and I can’t wait to see what awaits us in future months.
