Now and Then...

Jack is 7 months old today. My friend Amanda just sent me this picture she took from our time together yesterday afternoon. Between the two families, we have Cal and Mac (2 and almost 2) and Jack and Corrie (7 months and 4 months). Though it is pretty comical, I think it demonstrates how things have just gone from good to better since Jack was born in July!

This is life now:
This was life then..

Peaceful,

Simple,
One child doing one neat little activity =). I used to just sit on our bench and read, talk on the phone, or talk to Calvin while we played outside.

And contained,
Stairs and walls were not even an option!


I much prefer...
Jack kicking his arms and legs, mercilessly chewing on his little firefly, and wrinkling his little forehead while his blue eyes dart here and there. Corrie struggling to hold her toys while still straped into the carseat. Both babies watching Calvin (wearing a winter hat and shorts) and Mac (asking for The Little Blue Truck book over and over again) take each others toys and reluctantly give them back to each other when prompted by us.
Amanda and I still get a little conversation in while we're together. =)
