05.30.15 – Full House

It's always a full house whenever there's a family birthday party, and cousin Emerson's 6th birthday party today was no exception. Thankfully, there is always someone willing to hold the baby.

Yes, I'd say this is one special Shepherd.

05.24.15 – Good book

Jack reads his first book. Actually, as Maddie points out, this book has no author because it has no words. So, I guess that means Jack isn't really reading.

05.23.15 – Pennies from Heaven?

No, dollars from Grandpa Greg! He usually passes out
dollars when he sees us. Today, Jack got his first dollar
but stayed passed out, though.

05.21.15 – Shhhhh! Don't wake the baby!

Shhhh! Look who's sleeping through the night! And, contrary to popular belief, it's not because we're lucky. It's actually because we're good parents with a smart strategy for sleep training. You might disagree with it if you heard it but our four kids have slept through the night by three months of age. So, we'll just stick with what works.

Rub a dub dub, little man in the tub!

05.18.15 – Happy Birthday, Mommy!

We (or should I say, "Wii?") celebrated Angie's birthday today with presents. Maddie was excited for her to get an Ed Sheeran CD. Angie was as excited as Maddie to get a Wii. Jack couldn't figure out what all the hubbub was about.

05.17.15 – Buster

If Angie had had her way, Jack would have been named Buster.

05.16.15 - Happy Graduation, Saige!

We've been going to Lisa's Daycare long enough now we feel like family. So we were delighted to be invited to celebrate Saige's high school graduation with them tonight.

05.13.15 – Recreation of a family photo

We did a similar photo in 2011 after Tommy was born. Now, we're doing it again with four.

05.12.15 - YMCA

Dreamin' of the day he can climb all over
everything. We are not looking forward to the day
when he is climbing all over everything!

05.09.15 – Waiting patiently

Jack waits for his number to be called while picking up dinner for Mom.

05.08.15 – Super hero saves the day

Angie heard Jack fussing from upstairs – presumably because he'd dropped his Binky. By the time she reached the living room, Flash had already taken care of it.

05.07.15 – Shhh! Sweepin!

Rule No. 1 of parenting: Never wake a sleeping baby!

Jack hung out on my lap for awhile tonight. When he wasn't awake, he used my hand as a pillow.

05.05.15 – Naked Baby

Bad diaper rash means hanging out in the buff for awhile
– with a tiny monkey, of course.

05.04.14 – First day at Lisa's

The other kiddos at Lisa's Daycare – including the dog, Zoey –greet Jack on his first day of day care.  
Notice anything similar between photos? Yeah, he's sleeping. He slept most of the day, barely phased with his new surroundings.

05.03.15 – Is that a baby near me? Bye.

We finally thought we were getting somewhere with Harley. But she
must have realized what was happening when she heard the first
shutter click because she promptly removed herself from the scene.

We've been trying for six weeks to capture a baby yawn. Finally got one!
