Tree photo-shoot
Matt told me I needed to post more pictures of Jack in the tree. Now you KNOW they're cute if Matt thinks they're cute enough to have their own post ;)~
A few randoms
Unlike his brother who screamed for every bath he took until he was put in the regular tub, Eamon loves his little tub

how cute is this? 2 of his favorite things, monkeys and trains
My new favorite way to babywear.
Below is a video of Eamon in the tub. He really splashes =)

South Florida & Baby Crack
Matt went to San Diego for a week of training and instead of staying home I decided to visit my father in Ft. Lauderdale. We had a great time... especially Jack. He absolutely adores my brother, Steven. Jack sang a very special song today: "I wuuuv Mama, I wuuv Daddy, I wuuuv Steven." So cute!
Our new favorite playground at Welleby Park. It's covered! One of the few I've seen here in Florida.

Uncle Steven and Eamon
Playing at Monkey Joe's. It's an indoor play area with huge blow up bounce houses & slides.
Did you know that slushies are like crack to babies?
He finished the slurpee in about 2 minutes
Hey man, you gotta try this stuff
Getting high
Cracked out!
Need some water to wash down all of that sugar.
My neighbor Amy meeting Eamon for the first time. He's bigger than she is!
Playing at another park in Plantation.
We had an impromptu photo-shoot in the tree.
Eamon knows how to party
Put me back in the tree!
Another tree picture. Love this one.
Eamon working hard with those legs
Check out that chub
He rolls to his side and then wiggles his way around.

Savannah!
This weekend we took our first vacation as a family of four to Savannah, GA. We went to participate in the Savannah River Bridge Run. We went last year when Jack was about 10 months old and had a fantastic time with Matt's parents and friends so we decided to go again this year. Matt runs in the race along with his father. This year I was going to participate by carrying Eamon in the sling and pushing Jack in the stroller. Unfortunately the weather was cold and rainy. I really wanted to walk it, but I couldn't justify making Jack sit in wet cold for an hour. So we hung out at the hotel until everyone got back.
We watched the SEC Championship game Saturday night in the hotel lobby. That's all I've got to say about that.
The boys getting ready for the run. I chickened out right at the last minute.

Jack ready for the Christmas parade
He really liked his mittens

Is Mary giving Jack knuckles or a punch in the face?
Eamon and "King Jim" aka Great Uncle
Sunday we roamed around River Street before leaving. The car ride was a breeze! I thought it was gonna be a terror, but both boys did great. Eamon slept almost the whole 4 hours there and Jack napped and watched his shows on the DVD player. Maybe driving 10+ hours to South Bend won't be so bad after all....

The 4 of us. No, that's not a gremlin growing out of my chest. It's Eamon in my sling with my jacket zipped up. People could not get their head around it.
The bridge I didn't walk across
They decided to wear matching shirts to show their Father/Son love for each other. Daddy wore Jack in my carrier like a pro!
hahah Matt sticking his butt out
Eamon sleeping peacefully right next to Mama.

Eamon 2 month appt and wish list
Eamon Paul
24 inches = 75th percentile for height
14.9 lbs = 97th percentile for weight (big surprise)
don't remember head circumference = 60th percentile
--------------------------------------------------
I've had a few questions about what to get the boys for Christmas. Here are a few items on our wishlist should you so desire to go this route.
-clothes Jack = size 3T (2T fits him now so depends on when you want him wearing it)
Eamon = is wearing size 6 months in onesies and size M in other stuff
-crocs with stuffing like this as he refuses to wear socks and close toed shoes. lucky me Size 8-9 toddler
-DVD's. We like Thomas the Train, The Wiggles, Blue's Clues, Yo Gabba Gabba, anything with shorter episodes.
-pretend play items like fake food, pots and pans, play kitchen
-Little People sets
-wooden puzzles
I hope this helps give you an idea of what Jack likes to play with. Love you all!

Thanksgiving
Matt and I hosted Thanksgiving with my family this year. We had my dad, my aunt Paula, Steven, Christopher, and Krystal. All the food came out great and we had such a fun time. I even made them do "Goods and Bads."
One bad thing did happen... I won my second Worst Mom Award during dinner (the 1st was when I saw my child run across the front lawn while I was in the house and had no idea he was out). Krystal saw Jack drinking out of Eamon's medicine bottle. Taking a big ole swig of peppermint flavored Zantac. We spent a little bit of time looking up Poison Control, but we think most of it spilled on the floor and not in his mouth. Why did I win the award? Because I never properly close bottle tops. I'm sure you've heard Matt scream about it at some point in our marriage. Bad mommy.

Putting the turkey in the world's biggest fry pot
Turkey smoke in Steve's eyes
Some pre-turkey lovin
Basking in the sweet fry-turkey glow
Eamon loved hanging with his Great Aunt. Even if he did pee a little on her leg.
The Uncles!

He's got a little bit of a shoe fetish
The men in the kitchen.
Our meal. My first try at cheesy potatoes on the left, turkey in the middle and roasted veggies on the right. We also had stuffing.
This is right before Jack decided to almost poison himself.
Me and Littlest Man maxing and relaxing.
The girls decided to make pies. Pumpkin and apple. Turned out pretty good!
After dinner beach stroll.
I can't believe he went in the water. It was actually below 60 that day.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!
