Happy 4th of July!

Jasper had a great time on the 4th of July.   We enjoyed the Waukee parade, headed to the Park to see cousin Syd on the big "jumpee" rides, and then went over to Sandy's house for a BBQ with the family.  Melissa and Joe Meyer joined us with Isabelle, too.  We stayed at Sandy's to watch the fireworks and Jasper slept through all the loud booms and bangs  - it was a great 1st 4th of July for the little guy!

Hanging Out with Cousin Syd

Melissa got some really good photos of Jasper and Syd when we went out to Stuart to visit this past weekend. We had a great lunch with everyone and some yummy homemade ice cream!

First studio photos

Jasper had his first photo studio experience today at Portrait Innovations in West Des Moines. Without his morning nap he wasn't quite as smiley as he normally is, but they got some great shots, many of which we'll be handing out.

Here's just a small sample.

A Fun Day with the Family

On Saturday, June 28, 2008 we headed to the Art Show at the Fairgrounds and then came back to our house for a BBQ.  We had such a great time with everyone.  Even Miss Syndey got to take a cruise with Adam on the bike! 

Feet

What exactly are those things down there, why do they move, and how can I get them in my mouth?

Just hanging out

Enjoying a beautiful Sunday afternoon under a shade tree in the backyard. 

It's bright out here...

Better put on my shades!
