Three Months Old!

Happy Three Months to our smiley little guy!!


Jack is very vocal now.  He makes lots of different sounds and coos all the time.  He makes raspberries too which George and Clara think is hilarious.  Jack wants to sit up and stand up most of the time.  He seems done viewing the world from flat on his back.  He puts full weight on his legs and can sit up alone for a few seconds at a time. 



He is still waking up at night but seems to be stretching his sleep time out on a more regular basis.  Most nights he is only up twice which is an improvement.  Mommy is bleary eyed but this is just one of the not so fun things about parenthood.  What I know for sure is that Jack is adorable when he sleeps.  Here is some proof.





Jack has had some more firsts this month.  We enjoyed our first family adventure to Space Center Houston.  He enjoyed his first time hanging by the pool.  He watched Clara's swim lesson with Daddy and George.  Jack sits with us in his high chair for meal times now.  He also had his first nap in his very own crib. 






Jack can grab toys now and is figuring out the use of his hands.  He is more interested in toys and gets a very determined look on his face when he is reaching for something he wants.  It is pretty cute. 





Jack really enjoys bath time and is starting to splash in the water a bit.  



And of course he adores his brother and sister.  They get some of the best smiles from Jack.  I look forward to the day that they can all play together.



I'm tired but I'm soaking all of these moments in.  It is amazing how just looking at this kid makes my heart soar.  He completed our family and we are all so in love with Mr. Jack.


We've loved every moment of your first three months Jack.  Can't wait to see what is in store next!
 


Happy Father's Day

John is exactly what I dreamed of as a father for my kiddos.  He is completely present in their lives.  John tries hard to balance work and family, which he does well.  George and Clara adore him and count down the minutes until he is home every night.  Jack gives Daddy some of his best smiles and giggles. They already have an amazing bond.  I am so thankful for you babe!

We made sure to celebrate John all weekend long! We decorated the kitchen for Daddy.  We showered him with presents.  We swam all together.  We went on a greenbelt adventure.  We enjoyed cookie cake and had a yummy dinner.  Daddy got some time to do one of his favorite things, golf!  













We also celebrated with our own Dads, who happen to be pretty awesome.  John and I both adore our fathers.  We enjoyed spending time with each of them to make sure they know just how special they are to us!



It was another wonderful family celebration.  We are so happy that we are able to spend these important days all together.


John, thank you for being who you are, which happens to be just perfect for us! Happy Father's Day!!!!

Enjoying Summer

School is out for summer!  We fill our days with fun play dates with friends and new adventures.  George and Clara have had a blast their first month of summer. We've enjoyed the Kings Harbor Fountains with friends from school.





When it is unbearably hot outside you may find us playing some games or watching a movie on the couch.  (I can't believe these two already know how to do this).


We've enjoyed lunches with our good friends The Lively's.

We enjoyed our first bowling and arcade adventure.  We will definitely be doing this again!





We've enjoyed dinner out with good friends!



And of course we've been swimming a lot!  We practice all of our new skills with Mommy.


More adventures to come!!
