Hanging out at home…

Jes — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 21:57:48 +0000

Jackson recently started going to Day Care and I think he is really loving it. It was an easy decision, but tough to do. He is having an awesome time hanging out with kids his age. He is making friends and becoming more talkative. I am sure missing him during the day though. And I worry about missing his next new word. I have been at the studio full time the last couple weeks and it feels good to be back to work, I just miss Jack.

Here is a recent video of him at home just hanging out, being goofy.

Jer sent me this link the other day and I just lost it. And since then Jer has been telling me to Catch his Feet and sending my messages like “hawp, hawp, catch my feet”

Just watch…

Jackson at the park

Jer — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 14:22:29 +0000

Here are a couple of videos we took of Jackson at the park yesterday. He’s pretty darn fearless and loves going up the stairs “like a big boy”. If you want to watch a better version of them, click the link below the videos and then make sure to click the “watch in high quality” link to the bottom right of the video.

Here is a new video of Jack! It’s pretty darn funny. He is pretty darn funny! It really is amazing at how quickly he is growing up with a bigger personality every day. He brightens our day all day long!! (we can’t get enough of this video!) Click the picture above to be taken to the video. It might take a sec to load, so you may need to pause it and let it finish before you watch it.

New Indiana Jones trailer out

This looks like a great movie. Sure it’s another sequel and Mr. Ford is getting up there in age, but I can’t help but get excited about it. Hopefully there’s not too much CGI and it’s not filled with “damn I’m old” jokes, but should be a fun movie anyway. Check out the trailer:

6 Months Old!

Jes — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 04:07:58 +0000

I can’t believe it! Jackson has grown up so much. He had is 6 mo appointment the other day and he is 19 lbs and 27 inches, 75th percentile in everything. He is strong, smart and so much fun to be around… except when he is being cranky right before bed. Jack has been sitting up on his own for over a month now. He get on all 4s and nose dives ahead or kinda scoot backwards. So he isn’t crawling yet, but he is working on it. He has been on cereal for awhile and he likes that a lot. We recently started him on baby food and so far, sweet potatoes are his favorite. He loves Lucy and Eddie more and more every day, grabbing and trying to eat them! So, pretty much anything he does we think is adorable! His cheeks are still pretty red and kinda chapped from teething. No teeth yet and I have been saying “any day now” for awhile. He handles teething pretty well.. from the stories I’ve heard anyway. He as a bit of a cold right now. Hoping that doesn’t turn into RSV like his baby cousin Kael.

He spends the occasional afternoon with his cousin Kael and that has been a hoot to see them together. Jack seems to want to eat him too. The other day I was holding Kael and Jack must have gotten jealous because he looked at me like I abandoned him and began to cry, which made Kael cry. Sidney is pretty content chillin in his room. Maybe once the kids get a little bigger he will be more interested in playing with them. Jack loves anyone who gives him attention. He smiles when he sees his Grandparents and Aunties. He pretty much smiles whenever he sees anyone smiling at him… I LOVE IT! My Aunt Jackie and Uncle Tom watch him quite a bit. He loves his Great Uncle Tom. Jer and I are pretty lucky to have so many great babysitters handy. I think everyone has watched him at least once, which has been a blessing for us to be able to go out every once in awhile or even just get the grocery shopping done by ourselves.

We had a crazy Christmas this year. We went to Pierre for an early Christmas at Jim and Judy’s house and Milo and Peg’s house! Then came home to spend Christmas Eve at Dave and Brenda’s house and Christmas at Tim and Ruth’s house with my folks! Then back to Pierre the weekend after Christmas! Like I said, crazy! He was such a good sport though. He also got to “meet” Santa, aka Grandpa Wade which was very special.

During the Holidays Jer and I spent a lot of time with friends, we ate out way too much and just enjoyed ourselves! My Birthday was in January and soon Jer will hit 28. (in March)

Work is slow going right now, but things are looking great for Spring and Summer. Jer is working hard as usual. Our families are all doing well and I think we are all ready for warmer weather.

I hope I didn’t leave anything major out! I promise to blog more and update the pictures more often. We have really slacked in that area and I’m not sure why. Can I blame it on being tired? We are sleeping more now though because Jack is doing better in that department. Well, I can’t think of anything else at the mo so I’m going to sign off. Comment us, shoot us an email, give us a call. Let us know how you all are doing.

Happy Belated New Year everyone!
Love,
Jes, Jer and Jackson
