Thief

Hmmm, I guess I better babyproof my list of what needs to be babyproofed. Jack swiped it from atop the coffee table.

Ok, NOW he is better

Jack is finally nearly back to normal after a lingering virus. He is still taking extra-long naps (yay!) and has a super runny nose, but he seems to be in normal spirits and no longer has a fever or extra liquids (ewww) leaving his body.

As promised, here are all the best pictures from our trip. Later in the week we will get the 9 month update!

Feeling better (I hope!)

We all got colds in Florida and upon our return Jack got as sick as we had seen him (thus the very short blog posts). He had a fever (we saw it hit 103!) had a trip to the doctor and his first GI issues (thankfully short - I will save you the details). However, he seems to be on the mend this morning. He has no fever, slept well overnight (thank heaven!) and seems to be just stuffy. All of this made me love our pediatrician's office even more. They are so responsive and reassuring. We recently learned our pediatrician is leaving the practice (of 4) and opening her own down the street. We are following her but will miss the comfort of having 3 other nice doctors ready to help us. She is keeping one of the nicest things of the old practice - open hours from 8-8:45 for sick kids. Also making the transition easy, all scheduled appointments remain the same.


More FL pictures to come soon...

Swimming (fixed)

I am not sure what happened but the slideshows work now!

here are some pictures from Jack's first trip to the gulf and his first outdoor pool!

Back and Bronzed

Ok, I am a little bronzed but of course Jack is not. He was slathered in a ton of sunscreen each time we were outside during our vacation to Florida. Luckily, our longest outdoor venture was the coolest day we were there so Jack could be comfortably covered up - 60 and and not a cloud in the sky. Perfect for a ballgame....

Here are pictures from Jack's first baseball game - well, if you can call it that. 24-0 in 7 innings is not exactly much of a game! And, technically, it was an exhibition since it was against BC. Regardless it was the very first spring training outing for the Sox and lots of fun for us! Hopefully we have some pictures in the stands from Anne and Ann coming.

We even got our picture taken with the 2004 and 2007 World Series trophies.

Pictures of things like, oh, the beach and the pool are to come:) For most people reading this blog I thought these pictures would be the most important anyway!

Drumroll please...Anne is the winner!

We have an overachiever in our midst:) The below was sent in as an entry - and though many people had very clever ideas (I got some via email too), I have to give Anne the prize for effort alone.

Caption Contest

I am not feeling terribly creative as I was up a lot last night with Jack teething. However, I think these pictures deserve a good caption. Please post a comment and I will announce the winner. Of course the only prize is getting your screen name/name in a post title and bragging rights.
