(This is the house that my grandparents have owned for almost 50 years, and now it's for sale. We've always taken pictures on the staircase, so we had to snap a few of the great-grandkids while we were there.)

Kate Update

Kate is starting to notice Tug more. She likes to let her lick her hand!

Kate can sit up now! She's still pretty wobbly though, so we can't go too far. She's really not that interested in sitting up. She would rather roll around on the floor from one side of the room to the other.

Can you see those 2 bottom teeth?! And the top 2 are on their way.

Jackson's First T-Ball Game

Jackson and his friend, Lauren (they were in the same class at his old preschool)

So excited!

Singing the National Anthem before the game

His first hit!

(They only hit off the tee for the first game, but the coach will pitch to them in the future if they want him to and can do it)

Jackson playing first base

(He told me this was practice and not a real game. I told him it was a game, and he said, "No, Mom, the Auburn baseball players don't stand in hula-hoops!")

Making friends with the base runner

Sliding

(Jackson LOVED to slide in the dirt...even when the ball was nowhere near him!)

Good game! (The Red Sox won!)

So proud of his dirty pants!

Kate with Mommy and Daddy

Look-a-likes

Daddy's girl

(Jackson took this one...pretty good photographer, huh?)

Kate - 7 Months (on March 25, 2011)

We're Back!

Somebody (and it was not one of the kids...or the husband) spilled chocolate milk all over our computer about a month ago, and we finally got it back from the Geek Squad! It has been a crazy busy month, so I have a lot of catching up to do. Kate turned 7 months (and 8 months will be here soon), Jackson started T-ball, Kate has 2 new teeth, we went on vacation with Erik's family (unfortunately, I forgot to take my camera on the trip, so there probably won't be a vacation post), we decided to put our house on the market, and lots more. I'll catch you up with some pictures as I find the time.

Playmates

Jackson REALLY wanted someone to play "light savers" with him!

Jackson's "Blast Off" Birthday Party

Jackson's birthday party was scheduled for the park today, but we had to make a last-minute change due to the rain. So, we found a pizza place that didn't mind having about twenty 2, 3, and 4-year-olds running around! Jackson had a great time, and we appreciate all our friends and family who came to the party. Mimi and Pop happened to be in town for Pop's annual Atlanta conference. Mimi got to come to the party, but Pop had classes today so he wasn't able to make it. Yoshiya, Yoko, Cayden, and Kayla also came in town for the party, and Jackson had so much fun playing with Cayden (as always). Here are some pictures of the party and some of our wonderful guests!

Jackson and His New Umbrella

Jackson got a new "Cars" umbrella for his birthday, and he's really been wanting to try it out in the rain. It started to sprinkle while we were driving home from preschool today, but by the time he got outside with his umbrella, it had stopped. Next thing I knew, he was yelling at the top of his lungs, "GOD, CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE IT RAIN??!!" (Kind of ironic since I've been praying the exact opposite for his outdoor party tomorrow that has since had to be changed to an indoor party to due the rain headed our way!)
