18 Weeks


18 weeks and growing...

Jasper's First Movie!




Today we headed to Copper Creek Cinema in Pleasant Hill for Jasper's first trip to the movie theatre. We saw "Gnomeo and Juliet." Both Adam and I had the day off today, so learned that going to an 11:45 movie on a Friday might mean you would be the only one in the theatre - as that was definitely the case.

Jasper liked the movie, ate his popcorn, and sat like a big boy the whole time! Cars 2 is coming out this summer, so that will probably be our next trip to the theatre! It was so funny to see him sitting in the seat chair that wouldn't quite stay down because he is so light. And he devoured his popcorn like it was the first time he had ever had it! We had so much fun!

Since we were the only ones in the theatre and arrived at 11:15 (since we thought that was the start time), we let Jasper run around and burn off some energy before the show started.

Livin' in the 80s!





Jasper stayed with grams, gramps, and Syd while us parents took a road trip to Yutan, Nebraska. Actually, we stayed in a hotel in Omaha but attended the 40th birthday party of our cousin, Shani Henry, at the Yutan Community Center. The theme - 80s! We all decked out in our best gear and had a great time. The gang includes Ken & Melissa Wilder, Amanda & Levi Hancock, and Tom & Holly Anderson. There is also a picture with Levi, Adam, and Melissa doing 'Sweet Child of Mine' for karaoke. Amanda Hancock was dressed appropriately, as me, her, and Adam were toddlers throughout much of the 80s, so she came in footie jammies. I tried to look somewhat like a punk rocker and Adam went basically as a nerd. He did find some Strength Jump shoes for $2.00 at good will that were 2 sizes too big and was the hit of the night as everybody wanted to see what was on his feet. We had a fun time!

More Jasperisms (update)

1. Jasper, what are you doing? "Anything" (instead of nothing)
2. I have a problem (and then identifies what is on his mind at the moment)
3. I'm not feeling way better. I think if I watch a movie, I'll feel better.
4. When I pick him up for daycare, he'll either say, "I had a wonderful day" or "I had a rough day."
5. I guess his Friend, Quinn, at daycare supposedly squeezed his lips. So, he told me that "Qen - seezed his lips" and I had no idea what he was trying to tell me. So, he proceeded to pinch my cheeks and then I figured he said, "squeeze." He gets pretty upset when we can't understand something, so he's figured out that if he puts an action to it, we'll eventually get it - ha!
6. When he goes to bed he says, "I will dream about you tonight..." So sweet!
7. Grocery Shop=Grocery Store
8. Grocery lady=Cashier at the grocery store
9. When Cozmo tries to get his food at the table, before we can discipline Coz, Jasper says "I'll take care of it mommy."

More:

10. Buh-maya = Alissa's cat Mariah.
11. My 'Spongebob Remembery' game = his Spongebob Memory game.
12. "You dream about me ... I'll dream about Batman."

17 Weeks and Growing


Here is our 17 week photo (actually, it's about 18 weeks so we're a little behind on the photo). We've got our 19 week ultrasound next week and are excited to make sure our little baby is healthy and growing strong! Jasper was actually not trying to hide his face, he was really just trying to hold up the sign, in his fireman hat and belt, which is currently a hat and toolbelt that when he puts on, he turns into his favorite person of the time, Handy Manny.

More Incredible Pizza



Here are a couple more photos from Incredible Pizza! Jasper loved the go-carts and him and Noah got enough tickets to get these funky glasses. We think Jasper's favorite game was the Spongebob driving game. He was pretty quick to be done with the toddler games and instead focused most of his time on the bigger-kid/adult driving games.

Incredible Pizza






We went with Grandma Vicki and Noah and Jason to Incredible Pizza this past weekend. We went on Feb. 20, which was the 14th anniversary of my dad's death. It was nice to get together with those guys and spend time with each other on this day. Here are some pictures from our fun time together!
