Good Times

Greetings all!

I just wanted to throw up a few more photos so I guess I'll give some narration to go with it.  We got a huge box this week from Diapers.com - I guess that happens when you're ordering diapers for two boys! Looks as if not only the diapers will be used - this box was too big to just put in the recycling bin! It's Boat Sized!

Jack In the Box! 

A cloudy morning is the perfect time to try making pasta for the first time ever. It isn't too hard except for the waiting 1 hour for the dough...that's even hard for me and I'm not two years old! At any rate, we all had fun and Jack was really good at cranking out that pasta.  We're feeling our Italian side quite strongly today!

Pasta Time!

Logan has been having his own brand of fun.  This mostly entails eating and sleeping. Here's a great action shot of Logan at his best:

Logan Taking a Break From His Busy Schedule...
We go to the doctor again this week so maybe I'll have another update soon.

    Dena, I love how you do things with Jack; these are things you will never regret, and that he will always remember! Kids are constantly learning and it is wonderful when parents take that seriously! And Logan--what an adorable doll!

    Good job, Momma.

Cut Out the Middle Man

I t was snack time at the Christensen house and I decided to use up some leftover cream cheese and salsa and chips (just lying around -I promise!!) Jack, as it turns out is new to the world of dipping. I used some of his crunchies and dipped it in the salsa cheese mix. He seemed to enjoy the flavor of it. I went into the kitchen to fix us both a drink and when I came back out I realized that Jack decided he'd had enough of the middle man and went right into dipping with the tools God gave him! I laughed so hard I had to share it with you! No One's Around to Catch Me... E xcep t Mom and her camera... I guess he thought it was good bean dip! He ate the rest of the bowl!!

7 Weeks Old!

All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go! Smile for Daddy! Baby, You Can Drive My Car Well, Little Jack is almost 8 weeks old now.  He has been a busy boy, and we are starting to get into a more regular routine. I think it is good for all involved.  We usually get up about when Daddy does at 5:00.  Sometimes we get another nap after that first meal, but sometimes we don't. And that's OK.   Our new nighttime routine involves bath-time at 7:00 (on bath days) so that he can eat and drift off to sleep and maybe give Mom and Dad an hour before their 9:00 bedtime.   Jack can still usually go 4 hours at night. Sometimes we are unlucky and he gets up every 2 hours.  This is rare now.  Sometimes we are very lucky and  he'll sleep 6 to 8 hours.  Not too often, but it is a taste of things to come.  He is getting really good at holding his head up.  I think he gets bored on some days because you cannot just leave him in his bouncy seat - he cries and cries.  He went into the doctor's last...

Second First: First day of School!

Well, the day finally came. It felt like we waited a long time, but the day arrived quickly nonetheless. The first day of school! Maybe it seemed to come so soon since the kids start school when they are 2 1/2 or 3 now. Guess there's more to learn than when I was a kid, LOL. It was more stressful than I thought to select a school. We visited a few local(ish) schools and finally settled on Holy Cross Lutheran Early Learning Center . It's only 15 minutes away, which is pretty close for where we live. We liked this preschool mainly because of the small size of the classes. And when we took Jack for a tour he seemed the most comfortable. So I guess in the end the choice was pretty simple - I just over worry about things most of the time. So he goes Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:00 - 12:00. It's an adjustment for all of us, but so far so good. Ready to Leave  That was Jack all ready to go on the first day. Eventually he'll grow into that backpack. B...
