Meijer Gardens

jack enjoyed his trip to grand rapids to see lots of outdoor sculpture and a very nice garden including a children's garden with an alice in wonderland theme. we first came here last spring when jack was 10 months old. at that time, we only visited the butterfly house and indoor atriums. this year he really enjoyed the freedom of running EVERYWHERE!

summer has begun

jack loved the pool today. he thought it was pretty fun to slip and fall. this picture captures the moment well!

terrible twos aren't so terrible

sometimes in the moment, the tantrums can make me sad, but i dig deep for patience and enjoy every moment of jack. each moment that passes will only remain a memory. jack can say sentences now and can understand so much more than 2 months ago. he is trying out what he can get away with and i am learning to let out more rope.

Bubble Boy

spring time

jack tries to say every word we ask of him and he is actually pretty good at it. i can't believe how quickly he's picked up words in the last month. he is keeping busy with great interest in trains, airplanes, bubbles and puppets.
