For those that were wondering....

We're still trying to have another baby. I never thought it'd take this long!! We've almost reached the year mark of trying! This is month 11, so here's hoping! And trust me, we've heard all the advice and how "you're trying too hard," "just quit trying," blah, blah, blah...well, we get that....it's just sometimes hard to be patient! We know God will bless us in His time and when He does, we will be so happy! We just want Jack to have a brother or sister soon!

Fun in the Sun

Kevin got Jack a little kiddie pool for our backyard and it's just perfect for him! Jack especially loves the slide part. He pretty much just loves being in the water! We did go to the public pool a few weeks ago and he was a little water baby. He was trying to swim by himself, putting his head underwater, blowing bubbles in the water, and just having a blast! I didn't get any pictures from the public pool b/c I couldn't really wrangle Jack and my camera by myself unless I wanted my camera to get soaked.




Here's a video clip:

First Goose Egg

Last Sunday, we went to a friend's house to hang out with his parents while they were in town and Jack ended up falling off one of the kiddie slides they had in the backyard and landed on the concrete and ended up with a huge goose egg on his forehead! I was a little worried at first, but it just so happened that Jeremiah's mom is a nurse and she said it'd be okay! That made me feel better, but his egg swelled up pretty big and looked so weird! We let Jack eat some no-bake cookies and some ice cream after the fall and then he totally stopped crying!

Sittin' on the Potty

We're not really "officially" potty training just yet, but we're putting Jack on it and letting him try to go. He has peed in the potty a few times and he pooped on it once, so it's a start! The other day he was sitting on it and he was looking at his camera to help pass some time so I decided to take a few pictures myself!

Fun with the Suitcase

When I was packing for our trip last month, I noticed how much Jack loved the suitcase. He liked to sit in it with his stuffed animals, he liked to put them to sleep in there, he liked to throw stuff into it and just whatever else he could think of. It's been out for about a month now and he still likes to play with it! Well, Amanda and Cora came over the other night to watch Jack while Kevin and I had band rehearsal and Cora turned the suitcase into a lot more fun for Jack! She put a pillow in it, strapped him in, put his drink in the "cup holder" and started taking him for a ride! He of course loved it!



Cora strapped him in and he's ready to ride!
