Carousel

Rawr!
I think Carl's pretty happy with Jack's recent consistencies in potty training.  Poop in the potty = he-haw ride!
This one's getting brave...
Just like his Dada...
...checking out...
...how the carousel works...
Jack's favorite, seems to be about every kids favorite so it's not always open.
NEIGH!!!

Mimic

Jack is a bit of a mimic as these photos show.  The photos are here in the same order they were taken.  So, I made a face and then Jack copied it.  Better watch myself...  :)




I know it's fuzzy but I'm scrunching my lips up to my nose here, that makes sense in my head, hopefully it does out of it too.
Wish there was more of his face, but you can tell what he's doing.


I didn't realize what he was doing until I was just sorting through pictures.  He's a smart & cute little guy!

Jack Really Needs His Own Camera

Jack got a hold of my camera again and this time he decided to document his Mama rocking out on the Barbie guitar, ooooh yeeeeah.
I was super rock star right here but his finger found the lens...






So avant-garde








Anyway, not very interesting really, but Jack had fun & I thought some of you might enjoy.  Working on some more picture posts!

Buzzed

My sweet long haired boy, but momma gave him a horrible haircut and it had to be fixed!

It's a whole new boy!

Catch-Up ketchup catsup



It's a sheet monster!!!
Sheet fun
Found this fort kit at Goodwill, all you need is a sheet or blanket and some handy helpers
This first fort attempt went through many variations before it's final design.  That may have been caused by certain little people who like to pull the sticks out...


Carl was drumming and hitting, not a good combo
Little drummer boy
This is what a Carl fit looks like.
All done!
Rock band!  
 
Jordan put this set up together while I was having a bath the other day.  He was trying to get a picture with Carl playing the drums & Jack playing the guitar & singing.  No dice though.  :-(
Jack is a very good boy when we are at a store or anywhere that sells.  He can pick up a toy and play with it and enjoy it, but when we tell him it's time to put it back, he does, no fuss.  The two of us went to some yard sales last weekend and he was playing with this guitar and for about the 3rd time ever, he did not want to put it down.  He hugged that thing so close!  I figured he must really like it.  It's pretty cool because we can put Jordan's iPod in it and Jack can play along.  Both boys are really enjoying it, best $2 I've spent in a while. I've learned that the way to get deals is to give Jack the money and send him up to ask how much.  He kept it in his little pocket and would pull it out and hand it to them, he's got a little more to learn, but he's catching on quick.  I have great memories of going to the city market when I was younger and Mom had me keep track of how much we had spent.  I think that was really an awesome foundation to help me as an adult to better manage money, definitely want to instill that habit in the boys.
