In the Captain’s Seat

Enjoying the hotel view, overlooking the airport. James could see planes landing, taxiing and taking off. Oh yeah, and really tall palm trees too.

We’re in Old San Juan

It’s time for a vacation to Puerto Rico. We’re enjoying a bit of shade on a hot morning in San Juan. I love the colors here. James loves wearing his open pants again.

Fillow Pight

James has developed an adorable and surprisingly authentic Filipino mispronunciation of one of his favorite pre-bedtime activities, the fillow pight (pillow fight). He’s currently immune to our attempts to correct him.

He’s also a huge fan of the Netflix series called Beggie (Veggie) Tales. He can sing the theme song, but mispronounces Veggie every time.

We love you James!

A Christmas Morning Moment with James (and Michele and Dennis)

Merry Christmas 2014! James is starting to get the hang of this Christmas thing on the third go-round. I’m guessing that he’ll be an expert … and won’t leave and gifts un-opened under the tree in 2015!

Tighty Whities

A new era has begun. James has begun wearing underwear, at least part time for now. Plenty of accidents in his first weekend, but plenty of enthusiasm too. Who doesn’t want to look AND feel like a superhero? Way to go James!

My Hands

James brought this home from daycare – he was pretty proud of the painting, telling us that it was a turkey, and naming all of the colors several times. He’s definitely left his share of fingerprints around the house … and I know we’ll miss them when they turn into big fingerprints.
