3 Little Christmas Monkeys

We spent Thanksgiving with my family in Statesboro and we attempted to get a shot of Jack and my two nephews, Carson and Austin, all in matching Christmas PJs. The first and shot is this year and the third shot was last.

Like I said we attempted. I tried to bribe them with chocolate chip cookies.

Happy Halloween!

In years to come, Jack will kill me for publishing this picture. I had just put on his brown tights for the costume.

Jack and Mama at the Fall Festival

Jack is trying to understand the game where you throw the football through the hole.

Just a moment where Jack is looking around trying to take everything in.

This year for Halloween Jack was a puppy. I borrowed the outfit from a friend, and it was a perfect fit. He was one of the cutest puppies I have ever seen. John had to work late, so Jack and I took off for our church's fall festival. He loves going out and seeing people. He checked out everything and kept me busy chasing him. Now that he is walking, you may have noticed that I update the blog less and less. Hope you enjoy the pics. We had a fun time! Oh yeah, he can now say a something that sounds like dog. If he hears a dog barking, he says "dog" and points.

Boxes, Boxes, and More Boxes

Hey all! We are in the process of settling in our new home which is very exciting. I love having a laundry room. As I look around the house, I keep asking out loud, "Did we really fit all this stuff in our apartment?".

We have been really busy moving, unpacking, and chasing Jack who is now walking. He is saying "Uh Oh" at the right moments and sometimes not the right moments. He is giving kisses and I just love him more every day. John and I get so much joy and laughter from our little man.

I can't believe it has been a month since we last had an entry. And sad to say, I don't have many photos. Hopefully, in the next few weeks we will remedy that. My dear friend, Sandi, kept Jack on moving day, which was such a blessing. The pics above are of Jack at her house and playing with her 9 month old, Nathan.

Just a few more from the weekend.

Practicing walking with Pop. He took a couple of steps by himself this weekend.
Playing with the puzzle Aunt Rachel, Uncle Pepper, Annabelle and Logan sent Jack. Thank you! It is perfect with extra chunky pieces. Already an Auburn fan and ready for the big game. Too bad they lost! :(

More Birthday Pics

The pics are a little out of order. Here is Jack helping his daddy put his new wagon together. His Aunt Angie, Uncle Michael, and Austin and Aunt Christy, Uncle Matt, and Carson gave this to him. We had been using the neighbors, so we are glad to have one. Thanks ya'll!

Sitting with Grammy. Jack didn't want to wear his cowboy hat.

We had a cowboy theme for the party. The cookie cake was delicious!
We also had a boot pinata. Jack was scared of it and a little unsure. We had help hitting hit from all the kids in the park.

Jack enjoyed the chocolate ice cream that followed the cake.

The Cake

Jack sees the cake and the candle.
John brings it closer to him to take a bite. He got the hang of it pretty quickly.
He finally made it past the icing.
Jack is still eating out of his hands even though we have taken the cake away.

Jack's Birthday Party

The best two grandpas in the world!

Hey Ya'll. This past Saturday we celebrated Jack's birthday. He will be one this Friday. We can't believe it. Both sets of grandparents were able to come for the big event. We went to a local park and just played and had cake and ice cream.
