Photos from Molly and Rick's Wedding

I think I have nice collection of wedding pictures here. Having three of us in the wedding and traveling to the location took plenty of prep work, but it was worth it!

I was escorted down the aisle by a handsome ring bearer.

He was not really prepared for standing for so long, but Jasper did great!

Jack performed the ceremony.

We met the newest family member, Tony. Joe would have loved to nom on his hands. These two are about two months apart.

Smiley Joe.

Jasper had a chance to show off some dance moves, mostly running around, flapping his arms.

Family picture!

Joe is 7 Months Old

Here is Joe at 7 months. He's rolling around any chance he gets and is doing pretty well at sitting.

 
 

It's lookng like he will be crawling soon!

Our family had an exciting weekend, Jack's sister got married. Jack, Jasper, and I were all in the wedding. I wasn't able to take many pictures, so I am still collecting them from others to share. Here is one for now. Jasper was the ring bearer and Jack performed the ceremony.

I guess we wore ourselves out having such a good time because now we are all sick with a cold. Jack stayed home yesterday and went in to work late today. Here are my sick boys. That little smiley baby is holding up pretty well.

Joe is Six Months Old!

Joe turns six months old today. He is such a happy baby. Jasper and I call him a rolly-polly because he has really taken to rolling onto his tummy then onto his back again. This guy is on the move! His is still without teeth, but he loves to put things in his mouth. I can't believe Joe is half a year old already.
Rolly-polly.
Here is a little trick Jack and I do sometimes. We love to make Joe "peek out from a doorway.
Naked baby!
Now feeling a bit modest.

Preschool Picnic

Hi dad!
Hi Jasper!
Today was the Onward and Upward preschool potluck. Good times.
When we arrived, I went to get Joe out of the car he was asleep. Even so, it was clear to me that he does not like his sandals. I don't know how he got these off!

Getting Warmer...

The weather has been so nice for the past few weeks. There have been some rainy days, but the sunny days have a way of erasing my memory of them.

I signed up for Instagram a while ago and have been using it to share more of our "everyday" photos. I've posted some of them below. If you are on Instagram, you can find me under stasiacooks.

Jasper found a tiny "Santa" on Aunt Molly's birdbath garden. When you're three, Santa is way cooler than a garden gnome.

A rare, happy tummy time moment.

Jasper is getting into Batman and Superman. (Not Spider-Man)

I think I know where this influence came from...

 

That's a happy face, I assure you.

We've had some outdoor fun.

The garden is sprouting and growing. Broccoli from the Master Gardener sale and a tiny dill plant Jasper planted as a seed.

A blueberry bush in the foreground, our metal trough in the background.

Snow peas from seed in the trough. I love the look of dainty pea vines.

Chives on our balcony deck.

At the end of the day, we are all tuckered out. Some of us sleep in a frog pose.
