Group Shots



A rare shot of the four of us all together, you can almost see everyone's faces!


I love this shot!


Jack and his Nonna have a very close relationship... yes, he's trying to pick her nose.

The kid's a nose picker, what else can we say!

That's better, best friends.

Group Shot.

Weekend in Houston

Kyle's explaining to Carrie and David exactly what it is that he does as a Research Scientist, which is very complicated, requires a drawing actually...
...hence, the pencil.





Jack's Tiny Big Kid Bike

Aunt Carrie found Jack this awesome little bike, which Jack calls his "Blue Motorcycle". He hasn't quite mastered this one, as this video will show, but he's really close. Once you help him onto the bike he does pretty well with the pedalling but it's going to take a bit more practice to master the art of pedalling and steering at the same time. We're getting there though!

Those cracks get him every time!

Cool bike, Jack, certainly nothing to thumb your nose at...

But apparently it's great for picking your nose on!






"That Crack is Hard to get Over!"

Jack got TWO new bikes in Houston this weekend! Here's him mastering the first... he finally figured out how to pedal!!

Aunt Carrie and Nonna, admiring Jack's sweet bike.

What a great backyard, huh?




Bath Time For Bonzo!

Notice the stratigically placed wash cloth. Poser.

Happy 25th Birthday, Kyle!

Kyle's 25th Birthday was on Wednesday and we celebrated with a few gifts, which Jack was happy to help open, and then Kyle and I went out for sushi while Nana Catherine watched the boys. The birthday celebrations will continue through the weekend when we head out to Houston on Saturday to see the Knights and introduce Nana Marcille to Mr. Scott!

Kyle's new Astros Hat, looks good on him, huh?
Scott's keeping a close eye on Jack. Jack's been known to sit on Scott from time to time, it's all accidental of course, but Scott is noticably cautious as a result. One day, I'm sure, Jack will be looking out for his little brother, but these days, Scott's looking out for him!

Thanks, Grandpa Bill!

After an afternoon of helping mom clean the whole house, a very deserving Jack got a brand new train set from Grandpa Bill! It was meant for Christmas but was saved for a special day due to the Christmas presents over load of 2007. Jack was totally thrilled! Thanks, Grandpa Bill!



Grandpa Bill also sent Scott a brand new crib!

Thanks a ton, Dad!!

Egh! Hook 'Em!!


Scotty's Nakie Tax Day Fun!

After over hearing how The Man had taken the shirt off Dad's back in Taxes, Scott thought he'd help out by offering Dad the shirt off his back... Thanks, Scott, but nobody took Dad's pants, put yours back on Buddy!

Scott's New Toy- Thanks, Nonna!

Nonna Connie sent Scott a brand new Floor Gym today and as soon as we had it out of the box, Scott was playing! He seems to really like it alot! Thanks Nonna!!

More of Jack's New Shoes


The camera didn't do the best job of capturing the lights, despite Jack's greatest efforts. He jumped around for hours last night and then he slept with his shoes after we finally wrestled them off of his feet!
Caught a little off guard by Kyle's rare attempt at photography.

Jack's New Shoes

This video is pretty dark, but you can really see the coolest feature of Jack's New Shoes- the lights! I took Jack out for a little Mommy and Me time yesterday, we had a blast. First we went to Starbucks where Jack had some organic chocolate milk and I had a Double Chocolate Chip Frap and we spoke at length of the day's events. Then we headed off for some shoe shopping. He picked these shoes out all by himself and he absolutely loves them. It was a great little afternoon.

Pool Time

Haha! Jack just got pantsed by Grandpa Mike!

Jack was really into staying put on that step, Kyle's trying to convince him to venture into deeper waters.
Miss Lily Kate was fearless as ever!.. well, she was by the time we got there anyway.
Scott decided to sleep through Pool Time, typical.





Backyard Play with Lily Kate




Lily Kate's Visit to Austin!

Lily Kate was apprehensive about Roman and Lenny at first, but she eventually warmed up to them.
Jack, on the other hand, was an instant hit with Miss Lily Kate.
