Best Friends

Here are some recent pictures of Jamie with his close buddies. Mia and Jacob are both 3 years old and Jamie and Katie are both 1 1/2 years old and they all play great together. It is so cute to see them play. They get so excited when they first see each other and while Mia and Jacob actually play with one another, Jamie and Katie follow each other around. Jamie has met some other little girls in the past few months but as you can tell from the pictures little Katie still has his heart!

"I love you!"

Hope has Arrived!

We have been very excited for this day to come and surprisingly Jamie was very interested in President Obama's Inaugural Address. He actually came running over to the TV when he first heard Aretha Franklin sing and then when President Obama began his speech!

Listening to President Obama's Speech!


Looking back at the TV when Obama was talking about bringing our country together and nations around the world together.

Jumping up and down when the crowd was clapping and saying, "Obama...Obama...Obama."

Finally, sitting down and listening to the last few min. of the speech.

20 Months Old!

Jamie is now 20 months old and having lots of fun! His daily schedule consists of eating (he LOVES strawberries), sleeping (still takes 2/12 - 3 hour naps!), playing outside with balls, Joey and his truck and taking daily walks in his car.....what a life! Here are a few of his favorite things to do......

So determined!


Watch me kick the ball daddy!

Living the good life. :)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! We spent the New Year's at Palm Springs and Jamie's Uncle Jason, Aunt Katie and Aunt Melanie all drove over and joined us and my parents for 4 days. We had a great time! Jamie loved all of his new playmates, especially his uncle Jay, and Jeremy and I enjoyed getting a bit of a break since we had so much family around to entertain Jamie. :) New Year's Eve my parents stayed at the hotel with Jamie and Jeremy and I actually went out for the evening with my sisters and brother. We had such a great time and I really treasured the night since it's not that often that just us "kids" go out for the night. Thank you mom and dad for watching the little guy! We hope you had a great New Year's as well and here's to health and happiness in 2009!
