Zia returns

Mom started back to work this week. So Zia is in charge again (she thinks).
When she wasn't looking, I woke Ryan up from his nap and brought him out to watch Elmo with me.
It was kinda hard to wake him up. Do babies know how to fake sleep?
But I insisted he watch with me.


I told him to watch this part, it's my favorite.
You just can't watch cartoons with him. All he wants to do is goof around.
Stay tuned: Wait til next Friday when Grandad finds out Lauren is trying to convince me & Ryan to join the Young Democrats of America. I can almost hear him now, "No Obots in this family!"
See you next week
Love,
Jack & Ryan

Happy Memorial Day

What a perfect day for a parade. My second cousin Halley and I went downtown to watch the ceremonies today

We saw Great Papa riding in a sports car.
Ryan enjoyed the parade as well, not even the 21 gun salute could bother him.
And finally, my Great Aunt Ingrid sent a photo of her family. That's David in the middle, he serves in the Marines.
Ooh-rah
These are some of David's friends also serving in the military
Eligah and Alex

And this is my Great Great Grandfathers' brother Len's
grave site in France. His Spitfire was shot down during WW2

Here is a video to get you pumped up for the veterans.
Have a good week.
Love Jack

Hanging with Auntie Ashley

We went on a nature walk today.

We had to be very quiet, so we could sneak up on the wildlife.
It worked, look what we caught!
We saw turtles!
And birds!
Check out tomorrow for my memorial day blog.
Love Jack
