Week of Pictures: Day 5

More Jojo

After seeing this picture a few people chimed in to say Jojo looked left out so we thought we'd dig through some pictures and prove that Jojo gets to do plenty of things. For example, Jojo gets to fly kites:



Jojo gets to plays trains:



Jojo gets to ride ponies:



Oh.

Sorry, Jojo.

Week of Pictures: Day 4

Jojo's Teeth

The upshot of all this teething is Jojo is on the fast track for food. He has started to refuse his baby food and yells for what we are eating, something he can sink his chompers into.

It's not steak, but it'll do.


Tomorrow: More Jojo!

Week of Pictures: Day 2

Continuing to play catch up with a backlog of pictures.

Easter

We were going to visit Nana in Las Vegas, but called off the trip at the last minute because both Chimpy and Jojo were getting over colds and Jojo had some new teeth coming in. Luckily the Easter bunny knew where to find us.



There was also a lot of love that came in the mail. We got some fun coloring books, stickers and cards from Nanny and Grandad:





And a new spring dress from Nana and Grandpa.

Week of Pictures: Day 1

This happens every few months. I have pictures I mean to post, but don't. Then suddenly I have a backlog of photos with diminishing relevance. We have to catch up on a visit to Sis, Easter, Jojo's teeth, kite flying, a trip to the museum and lots of general cuteness. So let's catch up:

Visit with Sis

3.28.09 - We drove down to visit Chimpy's BFF, Sis. It's a long ride for an excited kid, but the novelty of a rental car helped pass the time.



We get there and as usual Chimpy and Sis pick up exactly where they left off. This time, they have a new toy to share. Jojo's face says it all.

Sis: Let's put him on a skateboard!
Chimpy: Let's dress him up first!


Besides brother bugging there was beach hugging:



And breakfast with the BFFs:





All too soon it was time to go.



The trip home was harder than the trip down, but we did find some comfort in a mall in the form of a corn dog and merry-go-round ride.





See you soon, Sis.
