Cruise February 2009

Mr. Chatty

So, for the most part I usually believe that Jimmy is basically a clone of Jim who I just baked for 9 months! However my outlook is changing as he speaks more and more. He wakes up talking, goes to bed talking and sometimes talks in his sleep. He certainly gets it honest! His vocabulary is very large. He never shuts up I swear.

Anyway, nothing really drastically new around here. We went on our cruise and had a blast. Mom and Rach really enjoyed their time here with Jimmy. Rach taught him to say "Peace out" and of course as I suspected they spoiled him rotten (not that we don't.) The cruise was fun. Jim and I really enjoyed the islands. We particularly fell in love with St. Maarten. It was beautiful. We snorkeled on our trip and shopped and just relaxed without having the regular life responsibilities. We did miss little man like crazy though! For our next vacation we are probably gonna take him along and spend time at an all-inclusive resort that is family friendly. We think he would enjoy the sun and sand just as much as we did!

As far as regular daily events go, we have been doing the usual work and play type stuff. We have started taking Jimmy swimming on Friday evenings at the local gym where we belong. He thinks it is a big tub and has a blast! We are hoping to teach him to swim so he can enjoy the water even more. We are looking forward to the warmer weather of spring so we can begin getting our yard in order. We have plans for a vegetable garden and some flower beds along the front of the house and may extend our deck and pour a patio eventually. Our canvas is blank as we built our house in the middle of a pasture so we have plenty of opportunity.

Well, gotta get going. Jimmy has fallen asleep on my shoulder as I have been writing this and it is getting increasingly difficult to type. Hope you enjoy the pics below.

Love to all! Jessye, Jim and Jimmy :) oh, and Walker
