A few things....

1. This is post 450!

2. About two months ago I thought Jackson was getting a tooth. Brian and I both thought we felt/saw it. Today it finally popped through. Yay!

3. Yesterday Lucas was bowling on the Wii with Brian. After a fairly unsuccessful roll he responded with "uh, my ball is getting too heavy." He's pretty funny.

Post 451 Coming Soon.

It. snowed. a. lot.

I don't know exactly how much snow fell at our house, but it was a lot. The front yard is nothing compared to the backyard. Holy snow! Gotta love northern Indiana.

Our mailbox when we woke up this morning.

Have a seat!

Should we fire up the grill?

Lucas saw me taking some pictures and decided he needed to take some too. I love his choice of footwear.

Apparently, when you are snowed in there is nothing to do but play in a storage bin.

Lucas finally got to go out and play. I love his jazzy purple scarf!

Jim & Arica are moving...

...to warm Arizona. We love Jim and Arica and are so sad that they moved to Arizona last week. They came up for a good-bye dinner before the big move. We treated them to Gino's East. Yum.
We wish them all the best in Arizona and can't wait to see them again.

Bookworm

Jackson sure does love story time.

We love our cousins!

Jim, Reagan, Riley, Caroline & Caleb stayed with us last week, Thursday-Sunday. It was such a great visit and after seeing Lucas play with Riley and Caroline I am so happy he has a little brother he can soon run around with. He had so much fun with his live in playmates.

Uncle Jimmy is very cozy!

Super cool kids!

Double trouble?!

Jackson is 6 Months!

I can't believe my baby is already 1/2 a year old! How does that happen?

He is becoming A LOT more verbal. He's definitely not the quiet baby he

was just a month ago. He LOVES rice cereal and is finally open to the idea

of other baby food. He eats carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, peas,

bananas and mixed vegetables. He is an excellent sleeper and he has now

slept 4 nights in a row unswaddled. Perhaps he won't need to take his

miracle blanket to college.

Stats:

Weight - 17lbs

Length - 26 1/4"

A little bit of Christmas

Santa was very good to Lucas. He asked for the 'dragon movie & dragon things.' Santa delivered and he was thrilled.

Helping Jackson open his presents.

Jackson opened some, too!

Pitiful

Jackson is usually very happy. Every now and then he gets some feelings of stranger danger. Janice and Jeremy came and he was a little scared of Jeremy...
