I don’t recall how Jack came to be wearing Ellie’s “love glasses” but all that matters is that they work for him. He looks insanely adorable, especially when he throws that beautiful smile into the mix. Love this guy so much.

Jack’s 1st birthday [VIDEO]
![Jack’s 1st birthday [VIDEO]](https://1b68362wdroc2sle24l8fj21-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/IMG_3297a-1200x1600.jpg)
It has been a whole year now since Jack was born.
366 whole days.
I’m really finding it hard to fathom that. It came so much quicker than it did with Ellie because life has been so much busier with two than it was with one.
Nonetheless, our little man really is becoming a little man now. He’s on the precipice of walking and all of a sudden, he’s changed from a little bundle of body parts to a little boy with human stature. It’s bizarre to witness.
This evening, to celebrate his birthday, we went to Love Food Central in St Pete – one of our favourite local vegan places – to enjoy dinner with some family. The owners were even kind enough to give Jack a piece of peanut butter pie with a candle in it and he boshed the lot of it! Continue reading “Jack’s 1st birthday [VIDEO]”
Silly faces at Starbucks with Mama
The four of us went to Starbucks at the weekend as we occasionally do for a breakfast date. What I didn’t know is that while I was in the bathroom changing Ellie’s diaper, Marti was snapping some ridiculously cute photos with Jack. Continue reading “Silly faces at Starbucks with Mama”
Jack’s first Christmas
After 7.5 months, Jack finally got to enjoy his first Christmas. Being that he’s not even a year old yet, we intentionally kept it low-key for him, but he certainly enjoyed a few nice presents from close friends and family.
And of course, Ellie had a nice Christmas with Jack and helped him open his presents.
Starting to feel better
The whole family was sick for most of November as we passed a cold back and forth. We’re finally on the other side of it, but that’s meant scant photos and updates on the websites.
This photo of Jack is a couple of weeks old, but was taken just as he was starting to feel better. Continue reading “Starting to feel better”
Jack giggling at Mama [VIDEO]

Mama took to playing with Jack the other night and while the giggles in this video are cute and contagious, they were even more so before the camera started rolling.

Blowing raspberries [VIDEO]

Marti started blowing some raspberries on Jack to see what would happen and he rather enjoyed it. In the past couple of weeks, he’s really found his voice. And his laugh. Continue reading “Blowing raspberries [VIDEO]”
Weeks 2 & 3
Time for another photo round-up. Caring for two children is quite time-consuming so I haven’t been able to post as much content here as I’d like, hence these sporadic collections of photos. Continue reading “Weeks 2 & 3”
The first few days
Jack is now officially three days old, so naturally we’ve got 10,000 pictures of him.
None of them are particularly noteworthy by themselves, but they help give a feel for what Jack has started to look like. Continue reading “The first few days”
Relaxing together in bed
Since Jack was born, there’s been a flurry of activity here with cleaning up, doing laundry and of course calling everyone to let them know that Jack has arrived.
We’ve finally got to the point where we can settle down and enjoy a few moments together, so I was quick to jump on that bandwagon. Continue reading “Relaxing together in bed”
