Our Trip to Nova Scotia!

In August, we took a trip to visit Jason's dad's side in Sydney, Nova Scotia which is in Cape Breton a small island in eastern Canada. And we were able to get his dad to go with us this time! We love to visit there and see everyone. Jason's dad, Arthur, is one of 9! So there are lots of aunts, uncles, cousins, and 2nd cousins! When we visit we stay with Uncle Robert and Aunt Joanne (love them!) and we have a ball. We are so grateful for their neverending hospitality!While we're there Jason has golfing buddies in his uncles. We were also so happy to see and spend time with everyone! It is absolutely beautiful there! Jason went swimming in the Atlantic Ocean until he saw jellyfish and then he was OUTTA THERE! Jason got more pics on his camera but here are some from my camera.

Can you tell he didn't get a nap?

My kid is so stinkin' cute!

Jack got his 2nd haircut yesterday! Honestly, I don't know why I waited so long. I did last time too! Each time it's like I'm afraid it won't grow back but it always does and really fast too. Plus, he just looks so dang handsome after! I love it! Not that Jack really enjoyed the process all that much, but he did get a balloon out of the whole ordeal! And he needed to look cool for his party tomorrow!

Jack's 2nd Birthday!

Here are some pics from Jack's birthday. He is having a party next week so there will be more pics later!

A special breakfast!
Fun at the park!

This is the Elmo cake I was going to make last year. I think he actually appreciated it more this year!

He was planning on using a fork, but then...
realized it was easier and more fun to eat Elmo with his hands!
A choo-choo! Awesome!

In Memory of September 11, 2001...

I just wanted to take a minute to remember all those who we lost so tragically and all those who suffered on September 11, 2001.

Jack is 2? That is crazy!

Jack turned 2 yesterday without my permission! Where did the time go? I made him the Elmo cake I was going to make for him last year. He LOVED it. I'll post pics ASAP! Other updates: I'm 13 weeks now so I'm over the "hump" so to speak which is a relief. For some reason I've got high blood pressure. High enough to be on medication, but it seems to be helping. I had borderline high BP with Jack most of the time, but nothing too serious I was only on meds for a few days after he was born! Every pregnancy different I guess. As I'm writing this I'm anxiously awaiting to hear how Sara is doing! Go Sara! Can't wait to hear how the baby and new mama are doing! Not to mention if it is a boy or a girl!!!!!

Midnight Sun Drama...

Has anyone read Stephenie Meyers' blog? She says she isn't going to be writing Midnight Sun now since someone released her manuscript and people have been reading it online. She is very upset! Oh no!! She has a link on her site to read what she has already written! Also they are moving the release date up of the Twilight movie three weeks since Harry Potter got moved back to July!
