Pics of Jake

This looks like kind of a scary smile. But it is just Jake saying "cheese"
Yesterday while I was having Aaron take a belly picture for me, Jake had to join the picture. He loves to be in the picture.
After church yesterday I put Jake down for a nap. It took him a while to calm down and I could tell he was not going to sleep. He finally did fall asleep and I went in to find the bed safety rail knocked on the floor. Jake was lying upside down and the mattress was pushed a foot away from the wall. What a wild boy!
I found Jake trying to put on his daddy's belt. I thought it was so cute that I had to take a picture. It is so funny how Jake tries to copy things that Aaron and I do.
Aaron took this cute picture of Jake just sitting in his room. Jake is so busy and active, but he is such a sweet boy.

Well for anyone that wants to see how big I am getting, here you go. I will be 26 weeks on Friday. Everything looked good at my last doctors appointment. I was measuring a little big, but I always measured 2 weeks bigger with Jake.

Such a dumb thing to do!

Well I did something kind of dumb on Tuesday night. While I was making dinner I laid my right hand on the stove and burned most of my palm, pinky finger, and some of my thumb. So painful! I ran water over my hand then had my hand in ice for several hours. I was so glad that Aaron was home. He finished making dinner and took care of Jake for the whole evening. Well I tried going to bed holding an ice pack on my hand, but that really didn't work. By 11 I was out of bed refilling my ice pack and still in so much pain. I decided to sleep on the couch so that Aaron could sleep well. So I was up till almost 4am refilling my ice pack every hour and trying to fall back asleep. I couldn't believe how bad this burn hurt. So I did finally fall asleep on the couch around 4 and woke up at 6:30 when Aaron got. When I did wake up the pain was finally easing up, but only after having ice on my burn for 12 hours!

I had a doctors appointment yesterday and I had my doctor give me a prescription for some burn cream for me. He looked at my hand and said "I hope that doesn't hurt as bad as it looks" but it did. It is looking so much better today and the burn cream really helped. It has just been hard not really being able to do everything with my right hand. Aaron really helped me out a ton last night. I don't know what I would do without him. Thanks sweetheart!
