Nana Lisa came to visit last week. Scott's sister Kristen was induced on Monday for her first baby. Luckily for us, but not so lucky for Kristen, she didn't have the baby until Wednesday. That meant Lisa spent more time at our house! The kids loved having her all to themselves.
Monday: Lisa reading stories for Jack before bedtime.
Tuesday: We went to cookie cutters for Jack's first official hair cut. Usually I just do it myself, but it was so long I didn't know what to do with it. Clara loved climbing in and out of every car there. But of course this pink one was her first choice.
Jackson picked the motorcycle and watched Tarzan while the nice lady trimmed him up. This was so fun -- and so worth it -- pretty sure we will be back.
Wednesday: Wesley Wayne Fuller arrived! Congratulations Kristen and Garrett. This little boy is lucky to be brought into your family.
While Kristen and Garrett were in the hospital we watched Duke. Jackson and Clara love him. Jackson loves taking him outisde to go to the bathroom, and Clara loves to pull and poke. Thankfully duke is used to kids being around and is extra tollerant of the little toddlers.
Thursday: We went to the Dinosaurs at Thanksgiving Point with Jessie and Brody. I took this pic of Clara and can't help but notice how quickly she is growing up.
What would an afternoon of fun be without all smashing into the same car? These kids love spending time with eachother. They are basically cousins.
My kids were not allowed into the hospital to meet baby Wesley. Jackson was sad and didn't understand why not. He just kept telling me... "but I am not sick"! So when we finally got to Kristens house - he was super excited to beable to hold this little guy.
As we drove to Kristens house for the first time, we of course had Duke (the dog) in the car bringing him back home. As we were driving, I said to Duke...
Me: Duke, you get to meet your baby brother
Jack: Is the baby a dog or a human?
Me: (Laughing inside). Its a human.
Jack: Did Duke come out of Kristens tummy too?
Me: (Laughing even harder). No. Duke came from a doggy's tummy. *I then I continued on with dogs are from dogs and humans are from humans... so on and so on.
I love Jacksons wandering mind. He thinks pretty deep, and asks me alot of questions. I like it. I like teaching him about the world... and I love hearing his perception of how the world works.
They came walking in to music and wearing mickey ears. So cute!
Close up of my little gymnast.
Ready to get started.
Of course everything in the middle was filmed so I don't have any more pictures until the end. This was him getting his ribbon.
With daddy.
The family.
His #1 fans :)
Andrea, his coach.
Scott couldn't resist messing around a little afterwards. And Jack loved watching his dad!
We went to Thanksgiving Point for ice cream to celebrate... and this was him after. Totally exhasuted. And notice his cute little "Jump Up Gymnastics" shirt that my dad bought him at the meet. My dad always bought me a shirt at all the meets that I went to... so I was so excited when he offered to do it for Jackson too!
