Sorry for the delay

The Blogger site has been down for almost two days! And I apologize to our loyal Jack fans. I've had the honor of seeing the little man each day, what have you done?? Kidding. Nothing too exciting has happened. 

But...yesterday and today, have been VERY hot here in Michigan. Yesterday was so hot, Jack decided to walk around sans pants. Admit it. Sometimes it's nice to walk around in your underwear. Jack thinks so, at least...

Jack strikes a pose while "hitting the links" without his pants on. We will be discussing proper golf attire.

Mr. Clean

Tonight Jack played the roll of Mr. Clean - as he "mopped" the floor with my new mop. I bought it for myself for Mother's Day (special) and as you can see...it has yet to be opened. That's because when I get home from work - the LAST thing I want to do is clean the house. Apparently, that's not the case for Jack. So have at it, son.

Making a Difference

I made a post a few weeks ago about a classmate who was an organ donor. Yesterday I found out that my sorority sister (and pledge grandma), Melissa, is featured in this month's edition of Ladies Home Journal. You can read the article about her HERE. She's an amazing person inside & out...

Second thoughts...

 This is Jack walking into daycare.

 And here he is having second thoughts about going into daycare... Last week, for the first time EVER - Jack started bawling when I handed him off to Miss Judy. So I tried a different tactic. I let him walk in, on his own, and then I gave him a quick kiss goodbye. So far, so good.

This is just a random picture of Jack - drinking "wa-wa." He is a silly little man.

Happy Mother's Day!

My day started off right when my husband and son brought home doughnuts for breakfast. Doesn't get much better than that! Wish we could celebrate with all of the special moms and grandmas in our lives! We love all of you! 

Happy Mother's Day to all of the special moms out there!

Got Get'Em, Princess

If you live in the Indianapolis area and this looks familiar - it's because Aunt Karley was recently interviewed for Fox 59. Why? Because she is the ONLY Princess running in the Mini-Marathon this weekend! 13.1 miles? No thank you. But we will be cheering for her & sending her positive vibes from the comfort of our bed/couch. Go Get'Em, Princess!

Trash Day

Tomorrow is trash day and it's Tyson's "job" to take out the trash. Since Jack and I were enjoying some sunshine after school - we decided to help Dad out a bit. Jack likes to help.

He also likes to stick his foot in the dog water bowl - notice his left pant leg is wet!?! Yeah, the whole foot was in the bowl, splashing around. Needless to say, I was NOT pleased with his poor choice. And therefore, he wore his wet shoe.

Artist

Jack was busy working on a beautiful piece of artwork tonight. He really enjoys using the "magical" markers I bought him. They are "magical" because they only write on "magical" paper and NOT "magical" couches. We know this is true - because Jack tried it tonight.

Let's Fly!

I think it's very appropriate that Jack's PJ's say: Let's Fly! And Tyson captured Jack in a moment of "flight". I swear, half the battle of parenting a toddler - is keeping your kid out of the back of an ambulance. Lately, I have felt that my Daredevil Son is on a mission to hurt himself. He has NO FEAR - and will (quite literally) walk off the edge of anything (mainly the couch).

Apparently, I should have invested in Band-aid.

Weekend Wrap-up

We enjoyed a nice, low key weekend at home this weekend. It was nice to be able to lounge on the couch - watching the Tigers lose (all three) games to the Indians.  We also enjoyed a dinner with the Jakobsens on Saturday night. Jack hadn't seen Mikkel in a while...apparently, too long. He couldn't get enough Mik time while we were there. Finally, by the time dinner was finished - Molly decided she'd had enough of Jack "stealing" her Daddy.

Back to work and reality tomorrow. Boo.
