"It's a bird, it's a plane...no, it's a PENGUIN???"

Here's my little tuxedo man, he wasn't to keen on the costume, as you can tell from the pics...

Happy Halloween!

This is Jaxon's first Halloween, so of course, we had to make a big deal of it...outfit and all. Here are some pics from today!

JAX-O-Lantern

This is one of my latest creations....I've been wanted to carve it and since Jared has never carved one himself nor seen how you do it, I decided it was a great Sunday afternoon activity. It turned out pretty cool I think, check it out! Here are some pics in the daylight as well as in the dark...

He's a star! (well sort of...)

Jaxon participated in a Future Star event today at the Capital City Mall. He was 1st runner up in the 0-23 month category and he won best hair as well. So we came home with two trophies which, as you can tell, he thought were pretty cool! He also qualified for the state finals to be held in May '08 right here in Harrisburg! His $300 entry fee will be paid since he qualified for states. There will also be talent and advertising agencies at the state level so we'll see! Here are some pics from the festivities today.





Since we have such a beautiful family (I'm not bragging or anythin, lol!) Jaxon's cousins (Morgan and Ravyn) were in the competition in different age categories as well. They both qualified as runner's up as well and they both took the award for BEST Eyes (as you can see)...We'll see you at states guys!

Jaxon's 9 month pics

Here are his lastest photos...we have them for everyone as soon as we see you!

Followin' in Pap's footsteps

Just had to post this picture of my little fireman....I love the "ever so subtle" grin he has on his face...by the way this week is national fire prevention week!

Fall Ball

Austin is playing fall ball this year for Dillsburg instead of football. We attended one of his games recently and had a good time watching him. Jaxon mostly enjoyed roaming around on the ground and his ice cream, but it was fun! Here are some highlights!









By the end of the 3 hour game he was all played out and enjoyed a nap in his stroller!

The newest member of the family!

We had a family get together to welcome the newest "temporary" member of our family -Cesar. Not sure if you remember, but 2 years ago, Jared and I had his sister Lorena as a foreign exchange student from Mexico live with us for a year. Well now, her brother Cesar, is spending his senior year here in PA as well but this time he is living with my aunt and uncle. They hosted a welcoming party at their house where Cesar made us seafood paella and we played guitar hero. It was fun, here are some pics from the evening...P.S.> Check out the sunset!
