Week Twenty One

All in blue...even the sky! At first I thought I was going to have troubles dressing a little boy. Needless to say since Jack's arrival I can spot the color blue a mile away!


Jack and Tom beat the pants off of me in Bocce. I think next time I will have to wear the Baby Bjorn so Jack can bring me good luck. We have always been game players at our house and now the winner gets to pick a chore for the loser. I was the one who got stuck changing the poopy diapers for the rest of the day!


You would have a big smile on your face too if you had these giant, beautiful blues eyes sitting next to you! Jack got to spend some more time with his friend Hailey this week. She and Jack are only 11 days apart. They had a great time riding the backseat together on our trip up to Sheboygan to visit their new friend Mason. Don't worry Nick (Hailey's Dad) Jack was a complete gentleman the whole way!


Jack gives his new friend Mason the once over. It seems like Jack has been spending a lot of time with the girls lately, so he is so happy to have a friend who is a boy! I have a feeling that we will be getting together with Mason and his parents, Matt and Jen, for many more playdates.


After Jack gave Mason the once over he seemed to look at me and ask "Can we get one of these Mommy?" I guess we'll have to wait and see what Dad says.....I have a feeling that I know what the answer will be, but we'll keep asking!


Jack talkin' to his other friend...the frog!


On Saturday Jack and I walked the Laura's Smile Mile, while Tom was a little more ambitious and ran it. It was a beautiful day to enjoy a great walk by Lake Michigan. After the race we got to catch-up with Jake.

Week Twenty

This is one of Jack's new favorite things to do...jump in his Jump-a-Roo. He will only do it if you are watching him though, I guess you could say he is kind of a show-off!


Grandpa Tom came for a quick visit this week. He fed Jack his peas after getting back from Cabela's, of course!


Such a little Love-Bug!


A relaxing Saturday morning nap with Mom.


I heard Jack making some new squealing sounds, only to walk into the living room to find him with his toy covering his face. He thought that it was a great new game of hide-and-go-seek. Can you find me?????


Our old neighbors, Nick and Amy, who we miss having right next door, invited us to a Buck's game in the company suite! Jack's first time at a sporting event was done in style, like everything is with Nick and Amy! Here is Jack hanging out with Ryan. He thinks he is pretty cool when he gets to hang out with the "big boys"!


Jack and Ryan actually decide to watch a few moments of the game.

Week Nineteen

What a big boy! It is so hard to believe that 19 weeks ago Jack only weighed 8 lbs. He has now doubled his birth weight!


Yum...sweet potatoes!


Yuck...sweet potatoes!


The Cubs were beating the Brewers so Jack and Grandpa Tim decided it was time for a quick snooze.


After Jack's snooze he headed out to go 4 wheeling with Grandpa Tom.


The Easter Bunny brought Jack some new beach gear. I'm sure he'll get all the hot beach babes this summer with this outfit!


A few weeks ago we discovered that Jack's long-lost twin was Bob the Builder. This week we discovered that he has another twin...


Enjoying Easter brunch with Grandma Jane.

Week Eighteen

This last week was a week of many firsts! Jack began the week by letting us know that he no longer needed to be swaddled when sleeping. Now Grandpa Tim can't make fun of us anymore for "tying" our son up so he sleeps!


Another first...solid food! Jack sure enjoys his rice cereal...anyone else care for a taste? My guess is that it tastes much better off of the bib.


We enjoyed the WARM spring weather and went out for a stroll.


Can you tell that he is Tom's son?


Yet another first...swinging in the "big boy swing" at the park. I have a feeling we will be spending many hours there this summer since Jack really enjoys the swing, especially when his good friend Emmie is in the swing next to him.


Jack's feet can finally touch the floor when you put him in his exersaucer. He has a great time bouncing in it.


Getting ready to do some home improvement with Dad!


I'm not sure why, but Tom and I think it is sooo funny to put Tom's glasses on Jack. No, we don't put them on him all the time, just once in awhile for a good laugh!


This is how we used to spend $30 on our Friday nights....


This is how we now spend $30 on Friday nights....going to Babies 'R' Us to pick up yet another box of diapers.
