Old News (Army Baseball)

Jackson got involved with his unit's baseball team, and the location doesn't suck.
Beautiful skies, beautiful ocean, and I suppose his team is pitching... thats our chaplain pitching, his wife was quite pregnant when they showed up right at the beginning of the season but he managed to make it to most of the games.
Here's Jackson in the outfield, wishing he could turn around and enjoy the view.
A little more action going on here, he was one of the better batters.

Coryn didn't appreciate the games so much, we didn't go to very many of them, and by the end he was very tearful that he couldn't go on the field with daddy. Jackson's group did pretty well, they finished third I think? they made it to the semifinals anyway.

CORRECTION: For the record, we finished second and made it to the finals. To have won it all we would have had to win three in a row the last night of the season and were only able to pull off the first two... we'll get 'em next year!

Old News (Move to Big Bed)

We decided it was time to move Coryn to a big boy bed, so we started taking apart the crib to move it out.
Coryn wasn't very happy, but it was more because we kept telling him to not be in the way so he wouldn't get crushed if something fell over.
He was tenative about the new bed, especially since he would have to get in by himself, but he was very tempted by the multitude of Pooh Bears all over the sheets.
He finally went for it, and here he's just discovered that there is a huge Pooh on his brand new pillow, which he was also excited about.
See the look of joy in his face? And we haven't had much trouble with it since. He's only fallen out once, but thats because he fell asleep between his pillow and the opening and shifted himself off. All in all a huge success.

Pretty Toes

I love Cocok's! Sadly the first time wasn't documented, but it was pretty too! The ladies here can paint just about anything on your nails, they have huge books full of images to choose from and its a full pedicure with oil massage and foot care. The rest are in chronological order, just wait and see what I'll get for Christmas!

Okuma

Okuma is one of the military resorts available for service members, and its not a bad place to spend a couple nights...
Coryn hated putting on the life jacket, thought we were trying to kill him or something, but as soon as we got on the boat and started looking at the fish through the glass bottom he had a great time.
And well, most of you know how Jackson is with water.
There are some interesting creatures on this island, and we have no idea what these buggers are but the crabs hid from the camera so its what you get.

Its a Boy!

For those of you who don't know, I'm pregnant again. Currently 23 weeks along and doing fine. We had our big sonogram and found out that its another boy, so be ready for another heartbreaker! My favorite of the three pictures, he has his hand on his forehead, do you see it?
Now he's showing he's as sociable as his dad, waving hi to the camera.

It's a foot, the toes are on the left.

Sashimi (raw fish)

Yummy squid sashimi! No really, it was pretty dang good. There are more videos at Lisa's myspace!
