Isn’t this boy the sweetest? I took this days ago so he’s a bit yellow from the jaundice. But still adorable. 🙂

Like the hairbands on his wrists to keep his mittens on? Why do they make those mittens so loose?

Apparently Ian wasn’t really done with his nap today. Took him FOR-EV-ER to settle down in his room and then he woke up at 4pm on the dime. I cleaned up the mess in his room, went to the bathroom and found him like this in the playroom. I sure do love this boy.


As promised…although more than a week late. Here is the 2008 edition of Annual Fathers Day Photo….with 2 new [adorable] additions:

Happy Father’s Day!!!

And, a pictoral journey down memory lane in honor of Father’s Day……

The day Mike became a father (2/24/06): this was the first picture I took of Ian and Mike together:

I wonder if we’ll have 3 children in the photograph this year when the Jones clan all gets together next Sunday….. 🙂

Playing cars at Ian’s table and chair set. Apparently its easier to sit on my leg and lean across the table than it is to get up and walk around to the other side. 🙂
