My oldest angel - Jacob

Jacob Woodruff Jr.

Jacob came into this world right on schedule. Born on May 23, 2002, right on his due date. He was born at 9:58 pm and was 7 lbs. and 8 oz., 19 1/2 inches long. (I think they measured wrong because at 2 weeks he was 23 in.) He was the best baby. He slept great, smiled a lot, and hardly ever cried. (I couldn't find my disk that has his baby pictures.)


As a little boy, he was the sweetest child. He loved helping, especially helping with his brothers and sisters. He loves to play by the rules.



Now at 9 years old, he is going into the 4th grade. His favorite color is blue. He loves building things out of legos and bionicles with his brother, Ethan. His favorite show is Ben 10 and he can quote and tell you everything about every episode. He doesn't like school at all, but he is really good at math. He is usually the top of his class in math. Jacob has a great imagination and loves to play with his siblings. He loves the outdoors. He recently hiked to the Timpanogas Caves with his Aunt, Uncle, cousins, and Amara. He loves to ride his bike, jump on our new trampoline (he has been practicing flips), and playing in the playhouse. He is a great help and takes out the trash and recycling.

Jacob is in scouts and has earned his wolf and is currently working to getting his bear.

When asked what he wants to be when he grows up he answered - a sciencetist.


His favorite past ime is playing video games. I can barely get him off his DS. Jacob is currently saving all his money to buy a DS 3D.


Jacob is a great boy who always wants to do the right thing. He hates it when people cheat. He believes everything should be fair. I love him so much and am so curious to know what is going to be when he grows up.

  1. See, I didn't know all these things about Jacob and I'm his aunt. I've seen him grow up these last 9 years and he is still a mystery to me. I'm glad he has the Derington side in him with his love of video games. All Deringtons love video games.
