Jay's Pictures

Here are some pictures from Jay's camera. My favorites are the ones he takes of himself using the timer. Not too bad for a kid.

Fun in Duncan

Yesterday Lindsay and the kids returned home from their trip to Duncan. Here are some pictures of Jay and Rex having fun with Papa's horses and a few others from their trip.

Christmas fun

We had a lot of fun on Christmas. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Jay is becoming quite the cameraman with his cool new digital camera.

The kids love Chad's new pull-up bar. In fact, it's likely they will use it more than Chad will.

Lindsay loves her new cruiser bike. It doesn't even make her look too old!

After conquering Mike Tyson's Punchout at the tender age of 9, Chad has graduated to Wii Boxing.

Sledding for the snow challenged

After a bit of trial and error Jay figured out how to sled down the stairs. As you can see, he's a little better at it than I am.

Here are some pictures of the famous snow storm last week. We only got a couple of inches at our house, but there were places in the valley that got about 8 inches! Jay and Rex played in the snow for only about 5 minutes before they decided it was too cold.

Come again?

After a couple of hours of Christmas shopping today, Jay was ready to buy the presents and go home. He turned to me and said "come on, lets go to the castrator." I think (hope) he meant cash register.

Trip to the zoo

We had a fun time hosting Thanksgiving. Too bad our camera batteries died and we only got a couple of pictures.

Today Lindsay and the kids went to the zoo with Lindsay's friend Amanda and her daughter Madie (Jay's gwerl friend). Too bad the Las Vegas zoo is so pathetic, but they had a good time anyway.

The last time we went to the zoo was September, 2006. I thought it would be fun to post a few pictures to show how much Jay has grown since then.

Funny stuff

Today, Jay was in the bathroom doing his constitutional duty (or is it doodie?), when he suddenly ran up the stairs with his pants around his ankles. With this background, the following exchange took place between Lindsay and Jay:

Lindsay: Where are you going?

Jay: I'm going to get the toilet thing.

Lindsay: What toilet thing?

Jay: The thing that gets the toilet unclogged.

Lindsay: Did you plug up the toilet???

Jay: Uh-huh

Lindsay: How much toilet paper did you put in???

Jay: Lots and lots.

Jay then confessed that he thought it would be cool to get the toilet clogged so he could use the plunger to un-clog it. Needless to say, Lindsay, rather than Jay, ended up un-clogging the toilet, pulling out handfuls of poopy toilet paper with plastic bags on her hands. Jay got the idea after Lumpy *ahem* kindly clogged and un-clogged our toilet on Thanksgiving.

The Two Dudes

Jay was riding in the car with Lindsay when he suddenly said "I want to make a stand!" Lindsay didn't really know what he was talking about, so he told her he wanted to make a stand to sell cookies. Later that day, Lindsay and Jay made some snickerdoodles and set up a "cookie stand" in front of the house. If you look closely at the sign on his table, it says "buy cookies 10 cents". He actually made about $2 at his cookie stand, although $1 was from the neighbors across the street. A bunch of kids even came back for seconds.

This is Rex's new trick. He has learned how to climb on top of the table from the chairs. I even got him to jump off the table to me after he saw Jay do it a couple of times.

Jay's 4th B-Day

Here are some pictures of Jay's birthday party and of him riding his Razor scooter that he got for his birthday. What a cool little dude.

Catching up

Rex hit the big number 1 last month. We had a fun party and let him eat some cake and get messy.
