Our life in pictures

We have had a great few weeks in Norfolk. Here are some of the highlights: 

Jackson has discovered the front door and entertains the neighborhood all day. It makes it hard to leave for work on time when those cute little thighs are standing there! You should see the glass...between Link and Jackson, there is no such thing as a clean front door anymore.
 We enjoyed a cooler afternoon on the porch last week and I loved to see my boys hanging out together. Doesn't Jackson look so relaxed with his dad?
 Here is J, all dressed for bed while spending the night at the Byrne Grandparents. We think he looks so grown up in this picture. Hard to believe he's 9 months. On a side note, it's pretty funny to watch him try to crawl, stand up and climb stairs in footie PJs :) It's like a mean trick we can play to slow him down!
 We LOVE story time on Wednesdays at the Larchmont library. Some days are very long when there is nothing to do. I mean, we take our morning run, eat and hopefully take naps but now there is a lot of awake time to be filled. Story time comes at 4:30pm when we are usually bored with each other and need a change of scenery. We brought our pals Mary and Ellie (pictured) whom we have not seen in FOREVER (ok, like 2 weeks, but it's like FOREVER!).  Jackson and Ellie have grown up so much and it's fun to see them interact with each other, trading water bottles, pulling up on each other, touching hair and stealing paci's.  It's awesome to have activities for the kids and have fun friends who also join in to have some mom time.


J is tuning into the 2012 Olympics
The Olympics are so exciting that we are losing sleep over them!

Finally, we got to enjoy a day with Christian, a friend from college, and her husband, Mike and daughters Lilly Kate and Ann Elise when they were in VA beach for a few days. We spent a few minutes down by the water but keeping three kids peaceful proved to be quite difficult and we enjoyed a few 'calmer' moments up at the pool. I love her sweet children and hope that they grow up to be just like Christian and Mike!
