Wow, time flies even more when you have a child I guess! You guys he is growing up so fast and everyday we watch him grow stronger, older and smarter. He loves to be talked to. He loves to sit in the sun and watch the world out the window. He really loves to smile and mimic the noises we make to him. He loves it when we stick out our tongue to him. And we are loving every moment with him.

We were recently in Minneapolis photographing a friend’s wedding and he did so well in the car and the whole trip in general. We rode along with Jer’s parents and made it to Pierre to visit family. We made a special stop to see Jackson’s Great Great Grandparents. That was really special for us and of course we took some photos. Check out the new photos btw!

Sidney just turned 7 and the family had a little birthday party for him. He is getting so big and he will soon be a big brother. We are all anxious to see the new baby!

Everything at the studio is going great. I have been really busy and I think I am finally getting into a routine with being at home with Jack and working at the studio. My mother has been amazing and she watches him almost everyday. Jer’s folks are fabulous and they are always more than available when we need them. The homemade dinners have been great too. And did you guys know we have been driving around some new wheels? YUP! We have crossed over to the dark side and are now driving a mini van! AND WE LOVE IT! Jer’s grandparents, Milo and Peg, along with his parents, all chipped in to get us this new van. How great is that!

Well, there is the low down on what is new with us and the family! Below, there are videos of Jackson. One was a couple weeks ago and the other was taken less than a week ago! The purple mouth was super funny, but basically he had some kind of fungus (which they say is pretty common) on his tongue and this ink was spread all over inside his mouth and it was stained purple for about 3 days. It was pretty funny!

So… hope you all comment or email us or stop by. Jer is working days now because of his new job with Milcorp out on the base. It’s been wonderful to have him home at night! Really wonderful! So yeah, hope to hear from you all soon!

Love,
Jes, Jer and Jack! (Lucy and Eddie too)
