Jude Video

Here's Jude saying some new things.

Fresh and New

The boys got very-much-needed haircuts today; next on the list is mamma... Sue did a nice job on their hair - as you can see the 3 bottom photos in the collage are the "befores" and the top 2 are the "afters". It always amazes me how haircuts instantly turn my babies into boys; they look so grown up and distinguished.

This week went really fast - we had a couple of nice days which meant we got some "outside time." Jude's new things this week are saying, "Hey, baby" and when you ask him what G-Gram says when she gives hugs, he says, "oooo ahhh." Jackson is involved in a little research project with one of my students @ SFU, so he started that this week - he gets to do soccer drills as part of it, so he's lovin' that!

Oh, and HAPPY SPRING - finally!

What a Personality

Our second child is turning out to be a little different from our first. Let's just say he's a little more "free-style." He's a little more laid back and likes to get attention by doing funny things - kinda like the Oreo story from last night. Here are some photos of him being, well, him!!!

Here, Jude pulled a marshmallow (which he calls "manos") apart and put the sticky ends on his cheeks.

Here, Jude swiped my Dad's glasses and was having fun with them.

This is how Jude helps himself to pretzels at my Mom's

Ordeos

I have no photo to show for this because we were in the car, but here's the story and maybe you can imagine it. We were on our way home from Altoona this evening and each enjoying a little snack - Jackson convinced us to buy Oreos- ones with yellow centers for spring time (as if there isn't enough bad stuff in Oreos, we got a little extra coloring). So Jude asks for an "Ordeo" and after he eats one, I asked Jeremy to turn on the light in the car and I'm not sure where most of the oreo ended up - in Jude's mouth on around it - it looked like he licked his face and dipped it in dirt.......maybe you had to be there, but it was so funny (and cute).

I'm sure that since there are still many oreos left over, there'll be another opportunity for a photo of Jude and his "ordeos."

Jude Drumming

Since I put the Fudge-o video up, Jude has taken a liking to watching "Jude videos." So here is another Jude video - I'll have to make more soon!

Sea Lion Video from the Zoo

Just wanted to share this little video of the boys watching the sea lions at the zoo. Listen for Jude laughing - he's got this new thing that when something is funny, he bends over, puts his hands to his mouth, laughs aloud (it's a totally forced laugh) and then says, "Funny!"

Fudge-O Update

I totally forgot that I had video of the fudge-o incident and I somehow forgot that Jude was trying to feed it to Gertie.......
