I'm trying to decide on some new colors for my website and branding. I'm sick of the current pink and gray. These are some new colors that I like. The problem is I need to pick just one. What are your favorites? Give me your #1 and #2 picks.
So I have a confession.....I find Jim Rome's voice EXTREMELY easy on the ears. With that said, Ted usually TiVo's "Jim Rome is Burning" and as we fold laundry at night we watch it, well it's more like.... He watches...I listen. Most of the sports stuff I'm not really even interested in....but the voice...yes the voice ;) So tonight when Jimmy usually stops by our bedroom I was a little disappointed to hear some other dude filling in and got busy doing something else around the house. That is until I hear Ted cracking up, so of course I rush in to see what all the Hoop La was about. I have to admit... even though it wasn't Jim I did find what Adam Corolla had to say right on (and VERY funny).
Oh yeah, I had this baby and his name is Max....I feel like Max gets a little neglected in the blog posting sometimes. He has been such a fun baby and I can't believe he is already 9mo! Guess I better get my butt in gear since the "I just had a baby." Excuse isn't really working anymore. Being on Death's Door this week sure helped with shedding some lbs. Feeling better now though. A shot in my booty yesterday at the doctors seemed to do the trick! 
I give him the "Fohawk" cuz he has the craziest hair that sticks out everywhere. I think the kid uses more product then I do :)
Jack was quite excited to learn that his 2nd cousins were going to be in town and ready to play. He was even more excited when I told him that Luke was coming. His jaw dropped and he said "Luke Skywalker?" I didn't think it would really do any harm so I told him "yeah, Luke Skywalker." Unfortunately, when the "REAL" Luke showed up and Jack said "you, Luke Skywalker?" Luke very adamantly replied "NO, I AM LUKE DRISCOLL." Jack looked at me a little disappointed but once we pulled out the swords and light sabers for them to play with all was well.
Thanks guys it was fun seeing everyone!
Today...Sunday...which means church, which means primary for Jack. So, I'm walking down the hall to pick Jack up from Sunbeams and his two teachers (luckily I'm good friends with them) are standing in the door way with these HUGE smiles and say "We need to talk to you." They proceed to tell me how the lesson was on prayer today and that they read a story to the class about a little girl who was having a hard time remembering to say her prayers. When they got to the part where the little girl forgot to say her prayers....Jack exclaimed..."Damn it!" They tried keeping their laughter in until once again they got to the part where the little girl forgot yet another time to say her prayers, so in all Jack's 3 year old animated disbelief he once again shouted..."Damn it!" The sad thing is I probably should have been embarrassed or something but we all just busted up laughing when they told me.
The REAL funny thing is Ted has a similar story that his mom wrote about in his baby book below. 
Just in case it is hard to read: "In primary one day about 3 1/2 years he wanted to follow Emily out of the class for some kind of event which resulted in crying for mommy. His teacher said no and he replied under his breath "Damn it." Our secrets were exposed, his teacher thought it was funny."
Well we got back a few nights ago from our trip with the Cook family to the San Juan Islands and here are some of my favorites of the 1006 pictures I took! We had so much fun...even in the rain. The lavender farm, deception pass bridge, seeing the Orcas, fish and chips, oyster and clam fishing or hunting or whatever you call it and Pikes place. Coupeville mussels were the highlight for Ted and Jack loved our personal tour with Gabe (Ted's brother) of the Navy base and a spot in the Captains seat on Gabe's plane. Wow I really don't think that was correct English and I'm sure I made some sort of run on sentence disaster in there. Anyway, Jack loved playing with his little girlfriend Lily Cook and spending a few days with his Widbey Island cousins Ashlin, Jonah and Natalie. Playing star wars with Jonah and the slumber party's at night. I loved all the picture opps if you can't tell and hanging out with our friends and family. We had fun and hopefully the Cooks will still want to vacation with us again after this trip. 
No training wheels for Jack! Tonight they came off and in about 30 seconds he was up and running. This is the highlight of my year to date. I LOVED the ear to ear smile as he realized he was on his own. I LOVED everyone around us getting soooo excited at what he had accomplished. I LOVED watching Ted run along side of him with the same smile that Jack had and I LOVE that I captured this moment. This picture just makes me smile and get the feel good all over goose bumps, sense of pride, I'm his mom and I love it kind-a feeling. 
Was there an age limit on that slip-n-slide box? (p.s. Ted borrowed those trunks that I swear are from the 80's when it was cool to have them mid thigh ;)
I love this shot of Ted and Jack
A few of the cute cousins
who needs $50 seats to Stadium of Fire! The F16's flew right over my parents house!!
The Sanders Poss(y)terity...well I think we might be missing like 100 other people but this seemed like a decent amount we decided to capture it.

Some other fun pictures of Jack enjoying his freedom!
This has been one of my favorite photo moments lately. Catching Jack when he doesn't know anyone is watching.
