first halloween

jack had an exciting time last night and today. he really enjoyed watching us carve pumpkins and trick-or-treating. this was the best halloween yet! thanks jack!

food at 22 weeks!

jack started cereal last week. when the spoon appeared he opened wide. somehow he knew just what to do. must be from all the watching he's done of patrick and i eating. i take pride in the fact that i alone have been making jack's, for the last 22 weeks. the 11 pound weight gain is from me!! however, i am happy for the help especially since jack has been spending the last 3 weeks waking for a couple midnight snacks.

he's going to love avocado,squash and sweet potato next month.

retro

jack enjoyed staying in our retro holiday inn room. one day, we will tell him about his first trip!

mission point

it was a warm day at the point of old mission in traverse city. jack was a sweet baby during our trip. more later!

4 years later

today is patrick and my 4th wedding anniversary and the first with jack, making it extra special. we are planning a weekend trip to traverse city and it will be jack's first vacation. it will be fun.
