I'm a dancin' machine

JC takes after his mom and grandpa. He will dance to the music on the tv or whatever beat he feels like at the moment. His newest move is the spin.

JC's new favorite reading spot







What can I say but he loves his books. JC climbed into the closet and on top of his books, pulled out a few of his favorite and read to Erica and I.

Shirt says it all


JC is preparing for Grandparent's Day next weekend by sporting his awesome "My Grandpa Rules!" T-shirt.

Beach Boogie BBQ

JC has learned to make a cheese smile.


Listening to the music


Go Diego Go

Finally a picture with Mommy. Thanks Erica for taking one for us.

We spent our Friday night eatting BBQ and lsiten to beach music. On Saturday we went back to the festival for the car show, Go Diego Go, and some frozen lemonade.

A day at the park











Waiting

Loving the teeth





JC loves watching the world go by outside.

Painting in the bath tub




JC used his bathtub crayons the other night for the first time. He got the hang of it after I showed him my loops on the wall. We even wrote a special message to Erica for when she arrived that night. Sadly no picture of that one but it was the thought that counted.

Trip to the Emergency Room


Playing with the balloon hand Daddy made him. Lost his shirt after he got sick for the 2nd time in the waiting room.

Just got his IV in. It was so hard to watch him scream while they put it in and drew blood from his little arm.


All better and up eatting Cheerios.


JC was a little out of sorts this morning. He didn't want to get out of bed and he didn't want to eat. He was so cute and cuddly but it was so scary at the sametime. So we used our parenting instincts and made a trip to the hospital where we spent most of our Sunday. Come to find out he was just a little dehydrated so they gave JC and IV for 200cc of fluid, ran some blood work and in a few hours we had our baby boy back wanting to eat and run around. Still alittle tired from the day he is napping now but here are some pictures from our experience.

South Carolina Children's Museum

JC checking out the animals
JC loved the guinea pig name Captain Jack.

Sitting in the large school bus.


Playing on the boat and life raft.

JC discovered toy trains today. First at story time this morning at Barnes and Noble and then again at the Children's Museum. He loved how they stuck together with the magnets.

JC took a ride on the hover round...um he did not like it. There was crying after this picture when the chair lifted off the ground a little and there was a vacuum sound.

Driving the Volkswagon Beetle


Puzzel time.
JC and I had a great time today. The only thing missing was Daddy cause he had to work.
