MS Walk 2009

Today we joined Aunt Diane, Uncle Richard, Blaine, and others in the MS walk. It was cold and very windy, but we all had a really great time. John was fast asleep and very warm and cozy for a little over a mile, but then got hungry so Jason, John and I headed back.

Jason used this as an opportunity to test his jogging skills with the new jogging stroller on the way back to the car and, needless to say, Jason got lost on a one way jogging course and I beat them both back to the car walking.

One Month Old!!!!

Today (March 26th) John turned one month old, it is amazing how fast time is going by. In the past month John has become more alert. He does not fall asleep right away after eating anymore, which enables us to interact more. 

John enjoys looking around as we point out objects and tell him what they are. His strength is incredible and he enjoys lifting his head and holding tight onto your fingers. He also enjoys pushing off with his feet. John is smiling more each day and we never get tried of watching all the cute and funny faces he makes. 

Video of John taking a bath!

Here is a short video of Jason giving John a bath in John's bathtub for the first time. We had to wait for his umbilical cord to fall off and heal before John could sit in water up to his belly button. I ended this video a little to short, as soon as I turned the camera off John peed all over his dad, which I found very funny. Enjoy the video and now that we know how to do video we will be posting many more moments for you all to share in with us!

The Guys Morning Routine

Before John came along Jason and Poindexter would wake up every morning and start their day off with a cup of coffee and watching/shouting at CNN. Here are a few photos of John and the guys this morning hanging out and watching CNN.

John Visits Flight Museum

Today the three of us met up with family at a local flight museum to show John the B-17. John's great grandfather (Howard G. Clark) whom John's middle name comes from flew B-17's during WWII. It was a beautiful sunny day and we all enjoyed the time out in the fresh air.
