Mmmm..grass.....

So today was a big day for Jack! He went to Maynardville with daddy to visit his teacher friends and hang out some. Apparently Jack was his usual charming self. He apparently took a liking to a cabinet, deciding he MUST fit in there. I read in the "What to Expect: The Toddler Years" that at his age, Jack will try to fit himself and his body parts into a variety of places. I am just hoping that this does not result in any serious injury - as I have noticed Jack literally has no fear!!

Exhibit A: Maggie's Cage


I also need to report that we FINALLY took some staged pictures today to document the summer and the end of Jack's first year. (which was technically in April!) We took him across the street to our sweet neighbor Helen's yard. She must be 70 years old and she keeps her yard emaculate! (which is WAY more than I can say for our yard!) She can be seen in the fall on top of (yes I said on top of) her roof blowing leaves off with a leaf blower. The woman is commited, to say the least. Anyway, so we head over to Helen's and Jack is not as smiley as I had hoped, but we did get a few shots that will work, and we can try again another day. I also didn't stop at the outdoor pictures and decided to snap a few in the bath tonight - those are a bit more smiley, because yes, you guessed it - my little fish was surrounded by water - his favorite! :) Enjoy the following pictures...more to come I am sure!!


beautiful boy

Okay, so Helen's lawnmower broke....and Jack thought he'd help out...he did an excellent job...until...........
