Uh-oh!!!

I knew someday I would need to explain the "Byrds and the Bees" to our little Jake, but I didn't realize how soon that moment would come. We leave a camera with the teacher at Jake's school so she can capture some of his life we don't get to see. He loves going to school and now we see why. He sure looks relaxed, with his girl in his arms, his binkie in his mouth and something good on TV (aparently).



Packer Time





Jake helped me decorate one of my co-worker's cubicle the other day for the Packers-Cowboys game. Jaime is a huge Dallas fan and started talkin' smack early. So Jake and I had the idea of "cheesing up" her desk. Even though the Packers didn't win we still have the pictures of our Packer Pride. Redemption will come in the NFC Championship when the Packers run over the Cowboys on their way to the superbowl.

So you think you can dance?

One of Jake's favorite movies recently has been "Grease 2" with Michelle Pfeiffer. He especially likes it when she sings the song "Cool Rider" and we have caught him dancing to it on a couple of occasions. Well tonight, we had the video camera ready. After taking his dirty clothes off of him after dinner we cued the song and let Jake take it away. As you will see he gets going pretty fast and nearly falls over when he loses his balance. Tonight he also threw in a couple of arm moves that we hadn't seen before. I can't tell you how lucky we are to have him in our lives. He sure makes every day so much better. Enjoy.

Pinetop Getaway

Johnna, Jake and I took a week off from work and traveled to Pinetop in the much cooler White Mountains. We had rain nearly every day and beautiful temperatures in the 60's and 70's. We took Jake for walks around Woodland Lake Park and traveled to Alpine to visit with Jack and Midge Fritz. Here are a few pics that we took. Unfortunately, most were on my mom's camera which I failed to copy before we came back to Yuma.
