Jake finally learned how to ride a bike!  The top video is the actual first ride.  The bottom video is him really getting the hang of it (on his friend's bike that's a little bigger).

Jake lost his first tooth!!!  He put it under his pillow that night along with a note for the Tooth Fairy.  She took the tooth and left him a note, a receipt and a two dollar bill!

This video of the boys is a good snap shot of them right now.  Jake likes to mess with Cole and when Cole gets fired up, he comes out swinging.

Jake at UCSF challenging his allergy to pine nuts.  He ate some under the supervision of the doctors and nurses.  Unfortunately he had a reaction (hives) so pine nuts stay on the restricted list for Jake.

Cole's favorite stuffed animal Brown Dog was loved so much his leg fell off.  Mommy preformed emergency surgery to make him whole again.
