"I want up"

"I want up." "Up pweeese." Many times a day, for many different reasons.



Because you have something to eat or drink that I would like to share with you
Because you are feeding or playing with Maddie and I would like to get in on that
Because you are going to read me a book
Because you seem to think you are going to read, work, or do something on the computer. Ha.



Because I hurt myself
Because something scared me
Because I woke up on the wrong side of the bed (or fell out of it)
Because I need a hug
Because I'm still little...for now.

Sometimes he seems like he's 2 going on 6. In addition to the non-stop chatter of "Whatcha doin?" "Can I do it too?" "Can I help?" Can I do it myself?" "Wanna play with me?", Jackson will overhear words he doesn't know in conversations and request definitions. "Megapixel" and "web site" were both covered this week. Good job on both, Laura.

And Maddie (who was 3 months old this week), puts on these pretty eyelashes in the morning and charms (and eats and farts and sleeps and blurps) her way through the day.

No matter how old they get.. they're never to big for cuddles or a sit on the lap. There's always room. First Jack is concerned about not having social skills.. now megapixels and web sites?.. Incredible.

Those lashes look like they are something off the red carpet. What a beauty!!!
Thanks for the update.. We look so forward to these! (Yes.. we need lives, but I'd much prefer catching up on your babies!!)
How was Soren's first week teaching?
Love you guys!

Donna, the pictures are beautiful. The commentaries all take me back when my precious babies were small. I count my blessings every day. Thank you for the update. Kisses and Hugs to all!
