More Bouncing!

Jimmy randomly got over his Christmas afternoon fear of the bouncer on the day after Christmas. The pic of him running - he had just seen Colin at the door and let out the excited screams of all screams and went running! He wanted Mommy in the bouncer....when I got in he said "all done Mommy".....is version of "your too big - get out".

Creativity..........

Jimmy likes coloring on his easil but he also likes using it as a tree house......and with a sheet...it becomes a great tent!

Gifts and Kisses.

The Bouncer!

Jimmy loves to jump so we decided to get him a bouncer for Christmas. He LOVED it this morning......and then later in the day wanted nothing to do with it acted scared anytime he came near it! We figured we'll get a couple friends over to play with him and he'll be over it!

Christmas Eve 2008

Jimmy was WIRED Christmas Eve. I don't think he stopped talking all day. Even continued to talk throughout the night in his sleep. He was a constant blast all day long! We spent the day at home and the evening with the Fiscus Family and thier traditional humble Christmas Eve meal (pic from thier home to come!).

BIG JUMP!!!!

"Opters" and Uncle Nick

35 Years Old and 25 weeks pregnant!

We started today with a suprise lunch with just big Jimmy and I at a great Italian restaurant......Jimmy's steak was the BEST steak we've ever had.....EVER. It was the first "date" we've had in a year without Jimmy! This evening Colin joined us while his mom and dad were at a Christmas party. The boys had a blast pulling out the shoes. Then we had ice cream birthday cake from Baskin Robbins. I jokingly said I bet we end up with green tea ice cream.....as it turned out, the green stars on top were! Not my recommendation for ice cream flavors but the rest was good. The snowman hat we're all wearing came with the cake!

The week before Christmas!

Jimmy seems to be in the spirit of the season. As always - jammin' up a storm. He seems to be in constant song and dance. Aunt Charity gave him a guitar a year ago and just in the last couple months he's really taken to it. And who doesn't like an umbrella to dance with?

Jimmy and Bear

Helping Dad with Christmas Decorations

Last year Jimmy could hardly walk. This year he in full stride helping his Dad.

Thanksgiving Weekend

We spent today hanging out at the house. Colin came by to play and have some "hotchy-chotchy" (jimmy for hot chocolate). While it's taken longer than expected, they boys decided the dog kennel is a GREAT place to hang out. Jimmy also go his new coat and hat in the mail today. He was anxious to put it on and leave to go "bounce and eat".

Brushing the Teeth

Despite the fact that we have an Elmo toothbrush, Jimmy still puts up a good fight. His first line of defense is ignoring is dad.











Next, refuse to open mouth.











Then there's the fake choke (and it is all fake).











Lastly, after calling for Mom, he resorts to combatives. This is certainly a battle of wills!

Bounce and Eat!

We found a great new "beef and leaf" with good food and a blast of a play area for the kids!










Colin (left) and Jimmy bouncing! They are both sleeping well as I type!
The slide is fast and fun!
Swinging with thier new friend.

More Bounce and Eat!!

Colin takes on the speed bump!











Please....let me out........












Even the guys got in on the fun.











Jim's having a hard time learning to share.

Gettin' the chores done!

Jimmy "helps" feed the dogs. The dogs sure don't mind it but if we don't watch......we'd have some BIG dogs! And the crazy hair curl isn't what it looks like - it's very thin and wispy.

Move over Neil Diamond.........

DADDY's HOME!!!

Seoul

We went to Seoul Monday night. Jimmy had his very first bus ride!
















We took a trip to the Seoul tower. Jimmy was more interested in the circular bench inside the tower than the view.

An actual picture with my child! I realized it's been atleast 6 months!












A tiny slice of Seoul...and I mean tiny. This place is beyond HUGE!
