Cabinet spelunking, plastic treasure trove

Big boy food

Jack has been very, very slow to take on finger foods or anything non-pureed. I am happy to announce that he is a cracker and apple eating machine now! He also like spaghetti noodles and cottage cheese.

Faster, faster!

Jack's buddy, Walter, let him borrow his cool lion ride. It has two modes. One lets Jack stand behind and push it and the other mode makes it a cool scooter to ride on. Arthur pushes Jack back and forth in our living area about as fast as he can go. Jack just hangs on and smiles..... even when they crash sometimes. :)

Horseshoe pit....Who needs a stinkin' sandbox!

Arthur and Jack decided to overtake the backyard horseshoe pit for a play sandbox. Jack seems to think this is a grand idea. I am still wondering how sand has the ability to creep into everywhere!

The drama of pencil drums

Itty Bitty Playdate

Jack and I hosted a playdate for our Mommy Meetup group. Here are a few pictures from the big event. We think everyone had fun. Jack enjoyed climbing up on all the other moms and getting hugs. He even got a couple of the ladies to read books to him! He is a book junkie. At the very end of the playdate a couple of Jack's friends got busted emptying the contents of someone's diaper bag. I posted a picture of the aftermath. Jack wasn't a part of the destruction but I posed him in the picture so he could look cool.

Tunnel Time

Jack got to attempt to crawl through the tunnel at his last playdate. He never actually made it all the way but had fun anyway! Jack also had fun playing in all the pebbles at the park that day. The swing set area had little rocks and pebbles instead of a foamy playmat. If only his bummer of a mom weren't there... Jack could have eaten rocks til his fill!!

Look out!

Jack is so close to walking. He pulls up on everything and is into absolutely anything that is not nailed down! He is so busy.

First time to trick or treat

Grammy Jane's visit

Grammy Jane came to visit us in Houston. She got to hang out with Jack and read him lots of books, his favorite activity. Also, Grammy got to go trick or treating with us.
