Living on the Edge

Today we went to Wal Mart to stock up on some snacks and other vacation essentials.While there, we discovered that Jack has a new habit of sliding the carseat buckle down from a safe position on his chest. He apparently prefers to live dangerously. Before embarking on our trip, we have to tighten the strap...it's just one of many things on my to do list :)

An Outing in the Ha

Jack needed to get a little air today as he was feeling stifled by our apartment. We took him to the pedestrian bridge downtown for a walk. He hung out on the state line, saw a teepee and soaked up some vitamin D. The best part of the day? Not only did we get to see Brandan and Lia, but Jack got to meet Christine & Michael too! It was a good day :)


Note: Today's blog title refers to the hip and trendy nickname for our lovely city. It was unanimously decided that "The Big O" just doesn't sound right...

Mr. Cool

Jack had another new culinary experience today. Prior to the bite of carrots, he was playing it cool and sporting his new shades. He tolerates the sunglasses and doesn't even try to take them off. (Oddly, there is a puppy design on one of the lenses. Apparently babies do not need full use of their eyes.) Once he tried the orange stuff, however, he became rather agitated. He managed to choke down about 1/2 the jar before figuring out that throwing up stops Mommy from feeding him more. Overall, carrots were not a success.
