Jack LOVES balls! We happen to think he's pretty coordinated for a 9 month old (although we have nothing to compare him to - just let us think, ok??). He was having fun playing football with Daddy while Daddy was watching football this Sunday afternoon. I love them both so much!!

Quelf
Nick and Liz got this game called "Quelf" and they brought it over to play with us while Mom and Dad Nickels were in town. You have to do all kinds of crazy stuff. Here's a few videos of the fun! :)
Mom had to write a rap about herself and here's what she came up with:
Luke had to do a disco dance and try to get someone to dance with him. Nick did (of course, we didn't know what his card said):
Dad had to sing this same line is I think 5 different genres. Good luck figuring out what they are!! hahaha
If you're wondering about the snorting in some of the videos, I had to snort like a pig every time I laughed.
Updates
Jack has 4 teeth now! You can't see the 2 on top, but here's a pretty clear shot of the 2 on bottom.
We have been without a lawn mower for the majority of the summer. (Thanks Matt and Jen for letting us borrow yours all the time!!) Luke got a steal on a new one from Lowe's. And he can't to have Jack sit in his lap while he cuts the grass!!Wednesday, September 8, 2010
The Joys of Motherhood
I absolutely LOVE being Jack's mom! There are so many things he does from day to day that make me laugh and make my heart melt. It's so fun watching him grow up and learn to do new things each day. Here's some things that Jack has done over the past few months that have put a huge smile on my face (in no particular order):
- the way he giggles when I tickle him
- how when i'm crawling down the hall he thinks it's so fun to crawl after me
- when he's eating cheerios and he tries to feed me one
- how just now he fell asleep in my arms while i was rocking him and singing to him
- that time i was read him "Goodnight Moon" before his nap and he put his paci in MY mouth
- how he dances when he hears songs with a beat
- the way he lights up when his daddy comes home from work
- how he'll come find me when i walk into another room
- the way he giggles when he's playing with Levi (our dog)
- when i say "give me kisses" he opens his mouth up as wide as he can :)
- when he says, "mama"....even though he's not saying it at me yet
Lord, thank you for the wonderful opportunity of raising Jack. What an awesome and huge responsibility! I pray Luke and I will be godly examples for him. I pray we would be able to teach him right from wrong. And most importantly I pray that he will grow up to love you!
