TIME OUT!

I'm convinced Jack is hell bent on hurting himself before the wedding. Yesterday the first incident came when he was pushing his favorite car around the carpet and wasn't paying attention. Right into the corner of the wood step stool by the couch...OUCH! He felt it neccessary to put the bag on top of it and his truck into time out for two minutes.

Incident number two came not even 20 minutes later. Brian was packing and I was in the kitchen when we heard a loud crash. I turn the corner and daddy's picking him up so I go about my business when I hear, "He's bleeding!". Bloody nose everywhere...and I mean everywhere. The sight of blood made him scream harder and the blood seem to come out faster. His nose is a nice shade of red now and is slightly swollen!

After daddy left we decided to go outside so he could run off some of his energy. He rode his bike too close to the boat parked across the lot and turned a little too late. Tipped him right over and into the boat. Dramatic screams and a couple of tears later he was back on his bike, only to fall over again. That's when we decided to go in and watch a movie...it's at least the 100th time we've watched Shrek!

The before picture.

The mission - to keep the curls!

He was a really good boy. Sat still, looked where he needed to look, flirted with ALL the ladies.

He even let them put clips in his hair.

Stylin'!

Not sure if it was a good idea to give him a squirt bottle but it's their mess to clean up!

The AFTER picture! Success!

Professional Bike Rider

Just look at that concentration!



He's everywhere and has time to say hi to his fans! There's some interference with the sound but you can still here him.

Even the best get stuck sometimes. It doesn't seem to bother him though. I was trying not to laugh but you can still hear it! His entire backside was wet.

Playground!

Our favorite new park! Far enough away so I can get a decent run in but close enough that we can spend a long time there in between!


Lots of different things to climb on to get someone tired before bed time:)

All by himself now!

There's a lot of "Look at me mommy!"

A new favorite is going down all slides either head first or backwards. And then climbing up the slide again.

HI DADDY!

Someone has to do the yard work!

We were teaching squirt how to give back rubs. Never too early to start!

Best Buds!

This is before daddy came home.

When daddy came home! Someone was missed!

Jacks immitation of daddy's airplane!

Aunt Patty's gift is now one of Jack's favorite blankets. Thanks Aunt Patty! He's such a snuggler.

Okay! Enough snuggling!



Showing off his stretching moves he learned at gym class.

Now it's time to play! Lots of screaming, turn your volume down!


Jack's new digger! Boys and their toys.

Resting time!

WI Shower

There has to be a shout out for the jello. Mima and grandma spent all of Friday adding layer by layer. Crazy!

Thanks to Sara, Jean, Jeni & Connie! I had a great time! The food was great, the company was even better!

Betsy and Katie came out for the weekend! Too much fun! I'm so sad I can't make it out to the lake but hopefully we'll there for Thanksgiving! I promise I won't get sick on your lawn this year :)

Possible Mima's favorite person in the world. Somehow she spent the whole week with Jacker's and still had a little energy to hold him. Rumor has it she slept the whole way back to NY though.

Grandpa Jack is always a favorite since he has so many cool (loud) toys!

Even Unc Ug (Uncle Doug) came out to hang with the little guy for a while.
