Signs & Sports

Not only is Jack a cute kid, he's also turning out to be a quick learner. Allison has been working with him on his sign language recently, starting with "more." This was the first sign that Abigail learned...which ended up being quite appropriate for her personality! But Jack has now figured it out as well. This is a picture of him looking our front window, probably at 25 neighborhood boys playing football. And (this brings a tear to my eye) he's asking for more. More football. On a side note, he loves his basketball goal. Its about eye-level when he's sitting on his rump and it seems to be entertainment for hours. He loves it when everyone goes nuts after he "scores." And of course, we do our best to catch at least an inning of a baseball game over the weekend...about 9 if the Red Sox are on.

My first post...

Hello everyone,

This whole "blog" thing was Josh's idea, but I have to admit...I've definitely enjoyed reading his posts and seeing the pictures of our precious babies! So I've caved, and I'm now posting on the blog as well. Not much to say now, but I did want to share a recent picture or two that we've taken of the kids. By the way...thanks to everyone who has left a comment for us. We love reading them!! Aunt Libby, thank you especially for all the various comments you've left. Keep them coming. :-)

Love to all,

allison

And so it begins...

Okay, so I'm a bit late in letting everyone know this, but Jack is officially on the move!! Allison put him in the middle of the floor on Monday expecting him to play with his toys like he always does. When she turned around, guess who was scooting around the floor like he'd been doing it forever!! So now it begins...terror strikes. We've had a boy for 10 months now, but everything is about to change...we're about to experience "all boy." As you can see, having crawled for a matter of hours, Jack made short work of the contents in the entertainment center.
