First day of fun

Well the King Family invaded Disneyland this last week and brought an infinite amount of positive energy to an already positive destination. It was great to get together with the family and allow the boys to spend time with their cousins. Jake loved the Teacups ride and the Flying Dumbo ride. However, his favorite color vehicle on each ride was pink. I tried to encourage him to get into the blue or green vehicles each time, but he refused. When there were no pink ones available he would look confused like "Well what do we do now???" Jeffry rode a few rides, but mostly enjoyed watching Jake ride his rides. We attended a character breakfast one of the mornings and we knew this would be a mistake as Jake is terrified of people in costume. Sure enough, when Stitch (of Lilo and Stitch) came by Jake hid under the table. When Stitch proceeded to follow him under the table, Jake bolted for the door. Outside of the "character assaults" things went very well and both kids had a great time.

Funny Face



Safety First!!


First day of daycare


Loves his momma



All smiles (most of the time)


Wow, how time flies when you have a family. It has been over six months since I last updated this blog and I assume most people have no doubt stopped looking for updates. The boys have grown quite a bit since our last update and Jeffry has started to attend daycare with Jake. Johnna and I continue to look for more time each day to get the basics done and ask oursleves at the end of each week "What did we do all week." Here are some recent pics of the boys

National Brain Tumor Society Walk

Last week we traveled to Tempe for the annual Brain Tumor Foundation Walk to support the Jaydie Lynn King Foundation. It was held at Kiwanis Park which is such an incredible place, but this year was under construction. They had a wonderful turnout and there were lots of red Jaydie shirts to be seen. Cami King carried little Jeffry for nearly the entire walk while Jake enjoyed a ride in his Radio Flyer Wagon. The weather was good and everyone seemed to have a good time. Here are some pics.

Playing in the backyard

Here are a few pics from the backyard swinging and having fun. Jeffry is beginning to become very mobile (while in his walker) and scooting around on the floor when he can get his belly up off the carpet. Halloween was fun although somewhat uneventful. Jake does not like costumes and required some coaxing to get him outside. We moved our patio furniture to our driveway and sat around a nice fire with our neighbors and their kids. We only saw about 30 kids in costumes all evening and I was pretty disapointed at how many 8-12 year-olds were being driven from cul-de-sac to cul-de-sac by their parents to go trick-or-treating. Isn't there something to be said for actually walking awhile to "earn" the candy and maybe burn a few calories before they inundate themselves with Snickers and Smartees? We're looking forward to the holiday season and all the joy it brings.

Pinetop 2009

Well we spent another beautiful week in the White Mountains enjoying the cool weather, rain, hail, thunder and lightning. The boys seemed to enjoy it too, with Jake picking up pinecones, watering grandma's plants and going to the park. He went fishing for the first time this year, but the trout I caught nearly scared him off of the boat dock. Jeffry mostly enjoyed rolling around the floor and his 1st rib bone. It is so nice to get away, but the days seem to fly by even faster on vacation. Here are a few pics of our good times.
