Knock Knock

This is why dinnertime in our house takes forever...

Love,
J

P.S. If anyone knows any good knock-knock jokes, we're all ears!

Oops

Has it really been 5 days since we last posted here? Oh my.

We'll be back on track soon, though. Mommy is putting together her new desk area today so she will finally have a place to sit and write again.

Here I am, looking very serious.


And here is my little clown of a baby brother.


Have a fantastic weekend!

Love,

Buds

Usually it's Jake's friends who come over to play. This weekend, it's my turn!

Isn't my buddy Lincoln the best? He and his mommy came to stay with us this weekend and we are having so much fun with them.

Feeding Time

Mornings in our house are a bit like feeding time at the Zoo...

Mommy keeps calling Jacob a Big Helper. He helps her feed the dogs and chickens. He can even get his own waffles for breakfast. (Good thing he likes them still frozen.) And, as of this morning, he helps feed me!

See, everybody loves me!

Have a great weekend. We sure will! Mommy's friend Jen is coming out for a visit...and she's bringing Lincoln! I cannot wait to meet that guy. We're gonna have a great time together.

Love,
R

Chasing Chicks

It's my new favorite thing to do!

Smiley

Yep, that's me! I am a smiley guy, just as long as I get my way and everyone is looking at me.

Jake is at school and Mommy thinks we are going to paint the hallway. Silly Mommy.

Saturday Already?

Wow...It's Saturday already. This week has gone by VERY fast. I spent a lot of time helping Grampa Mike outside. You can see the pictures of our new patio on Mommy's blog page. It's pretty awesome. I already rode my bike around and around and tested it all out.

Sadly, Grampa Mike is leaving tomorrow. I'm not sure how we will survive without him. Please don't anyone tell Gramma Jojo this, but Grampa Mike is pretty good at fixing all sorts of little things around the house, too. Doors the didn't open well now open easily. Lights that were too bright now have dimmers. Sprinklers that didn't sprinkle now work again (sort of). Little boys that love their Grampas are now happier for having spent a whole week with their Grampa Mike. You should see Ryan smile and laugh every time Grampa talks to him. I think Ryan likes him as much as he likes me...and that's a lot!

Here we are on our last night together...


Thank you so much for everything, Grampa. I'm not sure how you remained so patient with us this week...I'm sure it wasn't always easy to let me "help," but now we will think of you each and every time we play on our new patio. We're pretty lucky. Thank you so much!

Love,
J

Helping Grampa

Grampa Mike is here!!!

I was SO surprised when he got here. Mommy told me that a surprise was coming, but wouldn't tell me what it was. We went to the airport and she kept telling me to watch for someone I knew. Sure enough...Grampa Mike came walking down the hallway!

We've been busy. I've been helping Grampa dig! We are making a new patio. It will be nice to have a place to drive my trucks outside again.

Here we are working hard...

B Sprouts

Mom doesn't like them either.

Soon Mom will post pictures of our house. It is a complete disaster right now. They are replacing our roof, adding lights to our ceiling, and putting a skylight in the bathroom today. While they are doing that, Mommy is trying to paint the ceilings in the bedrooms so we can move our furniture back in there and stop sleeping in the living room. Oh boy.

I hope you have a great weekend. We will have a busy one! Grampa Mike will be here on Sunday night though....yay!

Love,
J

Oh Bubbles

Uncle Darren came over last night and brought me a birthday present! Since it was already getting dark out, mommy told me I had to wait til morning ro play with it. She must have thought I would forget about it...

Nope. This video was recorded at 7:30 this morning.

What a way to start the day!

Love,
J
