Wednesday!

Have you ever seen the YouTube video of the guy who took a picture of his face everyday for over a year and then edited them into a video and set it to music? It's neat to see (in fast forward) how he changed over time and how little changes that seem insignificant day to day make a big difference over time. After seeing the video I was inspired to do something similar for Jack. So every Wednesday (since he was born on a Wednesday) we take his picture.  My plan is to keep it up for a year. So here is the 30th installment of our weekly photo session.

Catching Up

27 weeks

Once we came home from our visit to Texas and Scout Camp we've been busy at home! GeeGee came for a visit, we celebrated the 4th of July, made a trip to Jackson, and watched a little boy grow!

4th of July

 It's hard to believe it's already July! What a fun summer it's been so far!

Where the Wild Things Are

While we were in Tyler we took Jack to the zoo for he first time. Caldwell Zoo is the best! I loved going there as a child and it was such fun to take Jack. It was even better than I remembered. We saw all sorts of animals . . .

In between all the nifty animals we had fun hanging out with GeeGee, Mimi, and Granddaddy.

We even made our first trip to the petting zoo for a picture. We kept our distance from the goats, though. Let's just say I am NOT a fan of goats after a traumatic petting zoo experience as a child. But I managed to make it long enough for a picture to record the occasion.

We had so much fun it wore a little boy completely out! This is definitely the way to do the zoo on a hot summer day, by the way - wheels, a sunshade, and a fan.

We even brought home some of the fun with us - SOUVENIERS!

Daddy!

I'm a tad late getting these posts up. I had good intentions but the last few weeks have been busy! It all started on Father's Day . . .

Daddy had to take the Boy Scouts to camp for the week and he left on Father's Day. We were still able to have a special breakfast before he left, though, Do you see that smile on Jack's face? He sure does love his Daddy!  No one else is as much fun to play with as Daddy and no one makes him laugh as hard either!

While Daddy took the Scouts to camp we went to Texas!  While we were there we got to spend lots of time with Papa.

We had fun taking pizza and spending a day with Papaw and Mammaw.

We also had fun with Granddaddy and Mimi, including a trip to the zoo (more to come soon!)

What a fun time we had with all our daddies!
