Our very first family photo!

Jacob's christening day. Ken was so proud to have Jacob wear the same Christening outfit he wore when baptised!

The day Jacob's adoption was finalized was very important - it meant the rest of the world recognized him as our son - but to us he was our son from the moment we first held him!

Jacob's first haircut. I think Daddy's crying!!!!

One of our family traditions - cut down our own Christmas tree. Jacob's first year at the tree farm with Mommy and Daddy.

Two of Jacob's cousins have birthdays close to Easter. Ken's sister hides Easter eggs full of candy for the kids to find. This year was a sports theme. Jacob was so proud each time he found one of his hidden Easter eggs.

Jacob needed a little help from Mommy getting his eggs out of the trees.
