Halloween

This was Jack's first real Halloween. He dressed up as a little Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars (Daddy was so proud)!

First stop, Nina and Papa's house (They had candy for the kids and margaritas for the parents...nice!)

So cute...

Sheep

Every year, sheep come around to our neighborhood to help clear out the fields. We took a walk one morning to go take a closer look.
Jack loves the sheep - he calls them Baa Baa sheep!

Getting ready for Christmas

Jack brought out his Polar Express book to read. It may not be exactly how the story goes, but we think it's pretty cute!

Jack loves his cars

Here is a short video of Jack playing with one of his cars. I love the part (around 17 seconds) where he actually asks me if I can make that same noise...so cute!

House updates

There has been a lot of progress on the house in the last 2 months. All of the walls are ready for paint on the inside and the outside had its last layering of stucco last week. The bathroom tile is all set and grouted...so, we're almost there!

Bob the Builder, Part 2

Well, since Bob the Builder was so fun the first time, we had to make another visit! This time we went with Nina, Papa, Auntie Kelly, Uncle Doug, Max and Molly.

So fun!!!

Troy Joshua Stellar Parsons

Last month, we were able to meet Josh and Trinidad's son, who was born in a military hospital in Germany. While Josh had to stay in Turkey (where he is stationed at an air force base), Trinidad and Troy took a trip back to the states.
We missed Josh, but it was great to have a chance to meet his son!

Visit with Nisha and family

We were finally able to get together with Nisha, Elise and Isaiah. Nisha was Jack's first sitter and she is amazing. We miss them so much!
It was wonderful to see them again!



Can't wait till next time!

Thank you, Papa

Jack has his very own new sandbox, thanks to Papa! Papa took some extra wood that wasn't used for our roof and made Jack a sandbox.
Jack loves it!!

Jack decided to see what the sand tasted like as well...
