Papa John

Hanging out with Papa John makes Rock smile!
Until he gets distracted by whatever is going on to his right!

Exersaucer

As my good friend Stephanie put it, "Why do our babies love the most hideous things?" When I went to register for baby stuff, I picked out an ExerSaucer (that was much plainer than the one pictured below). But when I went home, I had a panic attack about actually having it in my house and promptly removed it from my registry.
But now, thanks to the generosity of a couple from church, we have succumbed to the offensively bright and crazy world of the ExerSaucer. Why? Because Rock LOVES IT.
He can spend up to an hour slowly taking inventory of the the many toys on this plastic baby entertaining marvel.
Please appreciate how I dressed him in the busiest pattern I could find so his outfit would work with the sensory-overload theme of his new toy.
Of course the main reason he seems to love the ExerSaucer is that it has numerous items that can help him with the continual process of teething.

When this smile is the end result, how could we NOT put the boy in this crazy contraption?

Skating with the Ladies!

ARE YOU READY TO SKATE?!
Recently, I took an afternoon off from watching Rock (Fix looked after him) to go skate with Becky (top right), Amelie (bottom left), Violet (bottom right) and Nancy (in picture below).
Now it's time to be impressed. AMELIE look this picture of us! I can't believe how well centered it is!
This was Violet's first time ice skating and after one time around the rink she discovered that she liked being held by mommy a little more than skating.
Amelie, having already had a few lessons, was a seasoned pro.
Watch out ladies - it looks like there is a speed skater on your heels!
