Drummer Boy

We got a drummer on our hands. Jeremy taught Jackson a basic drum beat 2 days ago and Jackson is loving it! He looks like a regular musician to me. Jackson says he wants to have his own band - a kid band.

Jackson just told Jeremy, "I can't believe I'm going to be a star!" He is already a star in our eyes.

Here's a photo of Jackson with his new Indiana Jones Lego set too.

On a Jude note, he is nodding "yes" and "no" appropriately and started going down steps backwards (yikes!). Oh, and he claps when Jackson is done playing the drums!

Jackson says, "I just graduated from preschool - Little Saints Preschool. Here's a pictureof me with Miss Kristen. I will never forget my preschool teachers: Miss Jean, Mrs. Bender (that's her in the background), and Miss Kristen. My best friends are Thomas and Noah and Josh and Gavin. My favorite things to do at preschool were playing with my friends and my also favorite thing was playing in the little box where the sand/rice was. I will miss preschool but I am really excited for kindergarten with Mrs. Pfister!"

Jeremy brought the Thomas table back upstairs for the Father's Day celebration. Jude quickly learned the art of standing on the chairs and then getting on top of the table (standing).

Jeremy found this tiny painted turtle in the yard last evening and Jackson thought it was the cutest thing. We looked for it tonight, but didn't see it again.

Happy Father's Day

Oh! We had such a great weekend celebrating all the wonderful Dads in our lives! We had a brunch Sunday. Thanks everyone for showing up and celebrating. The day was so nice and everyone got a chance to get out and enjoy the warm weather (on Sunday, not Saturday).

Jackson had a "sleep over" @ Grammy Linda's this weekend - Zach and Maddie were in on it too! God bless Linda (I wonder if she'll ever recover).

This week will be busy and we're headed to the Pittsburgh Zoo on Saturday with Ga-Ga, Dana, and Nate.

Promise to add more photos soon.......
