Beautiful Day in Boulder







We love Boulder and try and go to hang out as much as possible. We would love to buy a house there, if the prices did not rival the Bay area. When college is in it is also a little crazy there. We went to spend the day there with my mom. We did a picnic lunch first and then went down to Pearl street and let Jack run in the fountain for kids. Addie was a little freaked out with the random water shooting up. The close up picture of her I posted just because you can see how blue her eyes are. She looks a lot like Phil.

FOOD! MMMMMM!




Adeline seems to now like food a little more. Jackson dropped some peas on the floor, and before I could grab them crumb snatcher was there to get them. She loved them, of course when I cooked some and put them on her high chair, she looked at them like they were poison. I kept putting them in her mouth and she kept giving them back to me. I don't think I got one down her. Crazy Baby! Baby food she likes, finger food if not on the floor, no thanks. The little blue dress my mom made. I love it!

Our Backyard




So I just wanted to post some photos of our backyard. I took some photos of Phil's garden, which right now I have tomatoes and cucumbers coming out of my ears. We also got a trampoline in the back . It is huge but a lot of fun! Thanks grandma! Phil and I get in there with Jack all the time, boy is it a work out! I have video of Jack jumping. i will try and post that on you tube soon.

Spiderman!!


Jackson has a new obsession. He LOVES Spiderman! He has never seen the movies but somehow loves it. It is almost as bad as his Star Wars obsession. So we just had an Organic Market open near the house and they were doing face painting for their Grand Opening. Of course he had to have Spiderman.

We just bought him a Spiderman costume, since all he wants to do is play dress up. I will try and get a photo taken today of that. I got him Spiderman sheets yesterday and he was so excited. He hugged me and told me I was his best friend.

So it looks like I am completely caught up on the blog!!!!!YEAH!!!!! I will try and keep it as current as I can now.

Love and miss everyone,

Going down to South Park.......









So we took the kids camping at the beginning of August. We met my mom, step Dad, and his other grandson, up in South Park CO. I went up with the kids on Friday afternoon and then my brother and sister in- law and Phil met us up there on Saturday. The first night was rough with all of us in the camper and because Ty and Jackson were fighting for Grandpa's attention. Ty is not really Jackson's cousin except by marriage, but they spend a lot of time together so that is what we call Ty. Cousin Ty was having a hard time sharing Grandpa and so was Jackson.

By Saturday I was dying for Phil and my brother Aaron to get there, so they could divert Jackson's attention. I also secretly was dying for Aunt Jess to get there. She has taken a real shine to Adeline and pretty much will not put her down when she is around. She loves Jack a lot, but Addie just melts her heart. It gives me a much needed break.

I was right, when Daddy and Uncle showed up Jackson had tons of attention and things seemed better. I was a nice time with the family. If only it had not rained from Saturday evening until late that night. Our tent was so water logged Phil had to sleep in the car with Jack. I was in the camper with baby.

It was fun, and I am sure we will be doing a lot more camping, but it is so much work. Thank goodness for my mom and Sam and their great camper!

Trout Fishing



Grandma has left and we are all very sad! We all miss her a ton! Phil decided it would be fun to take Jack on a fishing trip. So the two of them headed out on a Sunday morning to spend the day at a trout pond. When they returned they had three fish, all caught by Jackson. He was so proud of them, that he ate them without any problem.
