Meet Jack

By
Jack Nathan MacFarlane made his roaring entrance at 5:48 pm, August 12th. He's a big, beautiful boy weighing 8 lbs. 9 oz and 21 inches long.

By himself, he looks normal sized to me. Next to other babies, he's a big one!

Justin and I are doing great - learning lots and lots of new things every hour - from swaddling and feeding to changing and burping. We're definitely on a steep learning curve!

We head home from the hospital today which is the next big adventure! Justin's parents are also driving down from Massachusetts. Jack will meet another set of Grandparents - let the spoiling begin!!!

I've posted some pictures at this link:

Thanks for all the Congratulations!! We're so happy that he's here!

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
