We’re Having … June 5, 2009

Filed under: Family, News — julescruise @ 10:18 am

TWO MORE BOYS!!!! Yippee! So excited! I knew A was a boy after the last ultrasound. The tech didn’t say he was, but I could see :) Yesterday when they confirmed it, I was not surprised, but very happy Jack would have a brother. Then when they said B was a boy too I just started laughing! So, Al and Norma have 10 grandsons and my side has the Brady Bunch! We’ll post ultrasound pics this weekend. We also have new Jack pics that Gerry took with our new Canon camera, and they are so good! We’ll post them too!

 

Jack’s Going to be a Big Brother! May 12, 2009

Filed under: Family, News — julescruise @ 9:59 am

I am a bit belated on posting this on the blog, but for those of you who don’t know … Jack is going to be a big brother this fall! And the bigger news … IT’S TWINS! I am due in November but it will be October when I have the babies. I will be 14 weeks this Friday, which means on to my second trimester! We find out the sexes in about 3 weeks, so stay tuned!

Meet Dr. Ellis May 5, 2009

Filed under: General — julescruise @ 9:43 am

Well, in this photo I guess he’s patient Ellis! I came into the room and found him and Audrey playing doctor with his tool kit! ha! Now he loves to “fix my belly” by hammering on it and putting the screw driver in my belly button – which I can’t stand! Makes me squirm! The tool kit is Handy Manny, so it’s not exactly sharp or anything. Guess I need to get him a doctor’s kit now!

When grandma was here last month, we went to Monkey Jungle again! We were joined by the Davey family: mommy Lynda, Sam and Sara. Dad Tim was on his way home from a business trip. Sara is a month older than Jack. We had a great time!

A Day Out With Thomas April 2, 2009

Filed under: Photos — julescruise @ 1:24 pm

When grandma came to visit last month, we took Jack to meet Thomas the Tank at the Goldcoast Railway Museum here in Miami. He had a lot of fun. The train looked great! Just like Thomas. He didn’t want to meet Sir Topham Hat, but he liked seeing him. You can’t tell from the photos, but Jack was wearing a Thomas t-shirt!

Jack & His Friends March 5, 2009

Filed under: General — julescruise @ 2:36 pm

As I mentioned in a previous post, Evie and Max came back last week for a couple of days. Jack LOVED playing with Evie, and we invited Audrey and her family over for dinner too! The kids were running around screaming all night. It was really cute. We discovered Evie and Audrey are one day apart! And with the time difference between here and Germany, technically they could have been born on the same day! :) Despite their close age, Audrey kept calling Evie and Jack “her children!” ha!

And here’s Max! Jack loved looking at him and rocking him. He’s such a good baby and barely peeped!

1 Fish, 2 Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish! March 5, 2009

Paige and Hailey had Dr. Seuss day at school recently. They are wearing the blue shirts because the kids all wear the same shirt once a week and are color-coded according to grade. They look so cute!
