A day at the park

If what goes up ...

Jackson

must come down ...

Then what is down ...

Jace

must go up ...

But best of all ...

Melissa

is all around ...

Happy Birthday times two

Valentine's Day (part 2)

We're always amazed how fast a week can go by when we head to St. Louis, but even more amazing is how fast Jace is growing ...

Already sitting up by himself ...

Most of the time ...

And then there's Jackson, sitting on his own during library story time ...

And sharing with a new-found buddy afterward ...

Of course, J and J are the best buddies ...

Well, check that ... Jackson might say Pop Pop is his best bud after building a model of Dusty Crophopper together ...

Let's face it ... Pop Pop is number one in everyone's book ...

But Nana gets a smile, too ...

And once again we went out like a lion ...

But we'll be back when the weather is more like a lamb.

First take on food ...

Hmmm ...

More please ...

I think I like it ...

Hey Jackson, this stuff is good ...

I know Jace ...

Pop Pop just showed me the pictures ..
