Happy 1st Birthday Crash/Jacob

To celebrate the 4th of July along with Jacob and Isabelle's birthdays, the Williams family headed up to the Smokey Mountains for a little BBQ and cake. It was a lot of fun even though we ended up getting SOAKED in some sort of freak, tropical down-pour. But until then, we did have fun. We're hoping to go back another weekend when it will be safe to play in the river. As you can see, Jacob LOVED his cake. I cannot believe its been a year!! For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of meeting little Jacob, he is such an utter JOY to be around. He charms everyone who looks at those beautiful blue eyes and BIG crooked, open-mouthed grin. He is so good natured and not much bothers him. In fact, he puts up with quite a bit without much complaint...ahem...Isabelle. (She really has been better lately about how she treats him...thank heavens) He LOVES music and LOVES to dance. He is super patient and entertains himself. He tries very hard for a 1 year old to behave and not get into too much stuff around the house...although he is extremely STRONG and a bit of a monkey. He can climb things too well. He has the typical 2 front bottom teeth, but got his front top 4 teeth at almost the exact same time...and never complained. His back molars are coming through right now. He has been walking since May and has discovered that he can reach things that are on tables, couches, etc. This habit of reaching to find things may have been what caused the sad accident that happened back on June 27th...but I will leave that for another day since it is midnight and I'm about to fall asleep. Don't be worried, I will tell all and show pics soon.
Until then, just know that he is doing absolutely fine.
