Kanes, Trains, and Birthday Girls

Quality time with Kane. Of course, they shared this well the entire time.

Nuzzle nuzzle with Kane. Molly is slightly amused.

Find Kane.

Chase Kane.

The train table is a huge hit.

"Go downhill."

"Careful blocks." Obviously, Jason is calm in even the most stressful situations.

Rosie is 1 today! This was her only bite of birthday cake when we were in HH. Lauren's cake was a huge hit.

The birthday girl gives great kisses.

Uncle Deet and Aunt Awi flew into Charlotte on their way to HH. They had a great time.

Molly introducing Jason to "Frozen".

Both Jason and Rosie love Kane. Jason still focused on "Frozen". Molly actually looking away for a split second.

That's more like it. All eyes on the screen.

Rosie's Tupperware party. Lauren and Ma Ross did a great job.

Jason took about a 9 hour nap this day, so he didn't make it. Rosie loved being on the water.

The first time we hit high speed had her a little concerned.

Enjoying life on the water. We got to see a few dolphins up close.

Getting more comfortable.

That's weird...Uncle Deet doesn't have his shirt on.

Kane with the photobomb.

Just like the good old days. Learning to drive at age 1.

Jason loved the blue sucker he got at church.

October

Peeak-a-boo, Rosie.

Rosie loves playing with and tackling this panda.

I see this look a lot in my future.

Testing out the new lawn with a bat and a golf club.

At the local pumpkin patch.

Jason's latest obsession is definitely cars. Rolling them on the table on down his ramp take up about 2 hours every day.

The kids loved having Grandma and Papa over for a couple days. Rosie was especially obsessed with Papa. We can't wait to see them in Hilton Head this weekend.

Wrestling. Rosie is going to be one tough girl (see below).

Jason likes to be perched when he watches his pad.

Breakfast with Rosie. She can easily spend 45 minutes in the high chair eating.

One of Jason's favorite expressions. "Don't want it."

Living dangerously.

Trying to push the rubber duckies down the gutter at the pumpkin patch. Reminiscent of the old Cornfest days in Ortonville.

Jason doesn't mess around when he goes in for the hug.

Burying Papa with toys.

Looking for the page with cars on it.

Found it.

Rosie gets a point for the escape, but Jason adds another 2 with the takedown.

Meal Time

I had to cut this video in half. Don't ask him to pray if you are really hungry. 

Buddy and Rosie talking about their day at the breakfast table.

Last 2 Weeks

Another mosquito bite to the forehead makes it look like Buddy's been in a fight.

 Jason loves to pray. He often points to and names whatever is close to him when he prays. Some prayers are longer than others (video coming soon). When we had pizza he prayed, "Dear God, pizza. Amen." 

Enjoying the cul-de-sac.

Reading in the morning.

My two girls.

Rosie trying to be a big girl.

Jason being a great big brother by shoving her out of the way.

One day, Rose. One day.

Uncle Bud would be proud. He is starting to line up his cars like a champ. In true Jason fashion, he quickly demolishes them all, though.

What does the fox say?

Really starting to become a talker. If she is hungry and food isn't on the tray she will let you know.

Time to Read

Jason reading his Lightning McQueen book. He actually gets a couple words right on every page. Every time the book starts making noise, he quickly says "ssshhh"...picked that one up from Baba.

Bonk.

Some photos from Baba

Accidentally buzzed his hair. Grandpa Ross is devastated. I guess he just knows how few years Jason has with a full head of hair and doesn't want him cheated out of his glory years.

Rosie is an eating machine right now.
