yesterday...

jack came out of the bathroom with a long piece of toilet paper trailing from his bum

"mommy! look i got a ponytail!"

the other day was big one for jack

nate took off his training wheels

*pretty sure i was more excited than he was

he did it on the second try
he is so cool
he did not like falling off...it was quite dramatic

this was actually pretty funny

jack didn't want to get back on his bike

he was done trying

but nate talked to him and jack ended up giving it one more try

he got back on and did pretty good until he realized nate let go of his seat
then in slow motion jack stood up and jumped off the bike

i laughed

jack is funny

pretty sure this is the sweetest picture

i bought jackers a new suit for church several weeks ago. i was kind of saving it for easter sunday but decided to let him give it a test run last sunday. the jacket apparently itched him. figures. but, he was so excited when i put the tie on him.

jack: i'm a guy now, mom?!?!

me: yeah, you're a guy! neat huh?!

jack: yeah, i'm almost a daddy.

me: uh no, no you're not. that will be a while.

jack: oh but i'm a guy!

he looks so big in this picture. i can't believe he is almost four.

nate went home today

and

jackers and i miss him

as i was trying to get jack to go to sleep tonight he told me he needed to talk to nate for just a moment (moment-it's the word of the week)

i let him call his buddy

jack: nate, you know i love you. i miss you.

i can't possibly describe how happy it makes me to hear him say that to nate.
