Best Saturday Ever

Eddie, Jack and I all took a walk this morning to the duck pond and then to Az Bread Co. for some breakfast. The weather was amazing and so was breakfast. Jack enjoyed watching Eddie ride his Fuzion ahead of him and would not take his eyes off of him the entire time. We do regret to say that there were 13 baby ducks and we only saw 5 today. It is fun to see their progress and watch them grow up and always reminds me of Jack. They were so tiny and fuzzy and helpless just a couple of months ago and now they are swimming along without their mommy already! In the past week Jack is progressing in his attempts at crawling (or should we call it slithering?) and he now holds his bottle on his own. He sits up by himself and plays with toys now...he is doing so much more on his own already! 

When Daddy Leaves...

Last week Daddy went out for the night so Mommy and Jack got plenty of play time together - Jack decided that he would tear apart Daddy's side of the bed! 

It's HOT!!!

Well, it has been way too long since I have posted new pictures, so I apologize to all of you Jack fans out there. Jack's most notable accomplishment lately has been that he has turned into a little fishie - he loves the water so much! He is so happy, and his new favorite game is attacking Eddie and trying to push him under the water (with some help, of course!) 

Six Months!

It is hard to believe that Jack is already six months and Eddie is nearly ten years old. The boys went to have their pictures taken for Daddy's birthday - it is also hard to believe that Daddy is already turning 27;-)  They both look so handsome! Eddie did a great job enthusiastically posing and assisting with Jack, while Jack remained his same crazy self, and hammed it up for the photographer who was laughing the whole time. 

Take Me Out To The Ballgame...

Tonight we went to Eddie's baseball game and Jack was a great fan! He loved watching the Durham Bulls kick the Owls butts 16-3! Jack adores watching his big brother and socializing with all of the other people at the game. The weather got a bit cold so Jack wore his cool beanie and looked like he was plotting to rob a bank...or the Gerber factory!                                                         

     

Small, Mighty and Handsome

Enough said...

Road Rage!

Jack is finally big enough to start using some of his Christmas toys! Will this be a prediction of our future driver? 

Hey lady, get outta my way! 
Move it! 

Almost 5 months old....

Today Aunt Yasha and Uncle Carlos came for their first visit to see Jack and he was delighted! He was nearing the end of his four hour Saturday nap when they arrived and he woke up with the biggest smile and welcomed them immediately. Uncle Carlos took some excellent pictures and Jack talked their ear off the entire time. He is such a happy baby and such a little crack-up! 

Big Brother

Jack's absolute favorite person in the world is Eddie - he looks at him with such adoration. Jack could care less what Eddie is doing, he believes that whatever he is doing, he should drop it and immediately play with and entertain him. You can just see the look in his eyes! Eddie always does and is the best big brother that anyone could ever imagine! Jack is so lucky to have him and so is our entire family! 

Jack at the Park

Today we took Jack to the park since it was such a beautiful day outside. Jack absolutely LOVES being outdoors. Whenever he is fussy the immediate cure is to take him outdoors and he is so happy as soon as we are in the fresh air. Jack loved looking up at the trees and playing with the grass. He didn't care about the playground but he sat at the top of the slide in hopes of one day making it down on his own! He was so curious about the world around him and it was so adorable to watch him take it all in. Daddy brought some blankets so that we could sit in the grass and take some more photos while Jack practiced his very best Zoolander poses!
