Halloween 2009

How do you like this? Two years in a row I have Halloween pictures on Halloween! Now if only I could keep up to date on my regular posts.

Here's Jack as a swashbuckling pirate. I couldn't find a toy saber for the costume so he's making do with a piece of wooden railroad track!

Is this what you call a modern day pirate? Notice the remote control in his hand! All the while I was grabbing my camera for this shot Mazzy is telling Jack to get down off the table (as she should) but I was thinking, "Wait! That'll make a great picture!"

Ajha, the old lady, and Mazzy, the vampiress.

This picture actually doesn't do Ajha's costume justice- she had a pillow stuffed in her bottom and two partially deflated beach balls stuffed in her top. In profile, she was quite a sight to see!

Jack got his one piece of candy and he was satisfied. He spent the rest of the time at Grandma Nancy's running up & down the hall.

Finally, the whole set of trick-or-treating cousins-

Mazzy, Jack, Ajha, Caleb & Derek!

Random Jack II

Here are more random shots of Jack to catch you all up. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

I don't know what it is about this picture but I love it! As you can see, Jack got a bit too close to the camera but he was smiling so that's all the matters.

What a goofy kid!

What is it about kids and laundry baskets? Add Jack to the list of kids who love to sit in one, and if he's really lucky, get pulled around in one!

"Hey Ma! What are you doin' in my tent?"


"Where's Jack?"


"Here I am!"

" Hi! My name is Jack! What's yours?"

8/27/2009

This is a position I'll be seeing for years to come, I'm sure.

Here it's his remote control car. When he's with Mazzy, they hang out on the big chaise lounge chair in Caleb's room watching cartoons, Jack in this exact postion!

Can you tell the boy is like his father?

Jack can't get enough of Seth's phone!

For Chanda

After Zach's birthday party, a bunch of us were sitting around the pool chewing the fat, sipping cocktails & revelling in the fact that there weren't any small children that we were responsible for any where near us. Some time during this event Chanda got the idea in her head that she wanted to push Rob in the pool. For those of you who don't know one or both of these people, Rob is a head taller than and more than a few stones heavier than Chanda. She thought she could catch him off guard but once Rob caught on the pictures below were what happened. Tara was on hand to help them both into the water!
