SOCCER SATURDAY

Soccer season has started again - this time Jameson is playing on an indoor team. Here he is before the game - yes he needs a bath - his hair doesn't usually look this out of control!!! His team lining up before the play started. He's the one wearing the long pants and the SUPER cool red indoor soccer shoes (Mike looked all over EVERYWHERE and finally found a pair of real indoor soccer shoes online in Jameson's size. J says they make him run SUPER fast!!!)
Running a victory lap after kicking the ball - he seems to do this after every good play he makes. I think he probably ran more than a mile in the 40 minute game.

Waiting for the goalie to throw him the ball. (Sorry for the fuzzy pics - I need to put the camera on a different mode).

More running...

Fighting for the ball - GO JAMESON!!!

Waiting for a pass...

Setting up a play...

Jameson, once again, had his very own cheering section consisting of Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, and Laurie and Kramer. We were all really proud of him, and were thoroughly entertained. If you are in town any Saturday over the next few months, we would love to have you join our cheering section!!!

CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

I have been fighting a nasty cold for the past few days, and finally felt back to normal today, so I decided to take Jameson on a fun adventure down to the Children's Museum. He has been wanting to go for a long time, and I know I'm not going to be able to have any one on one time with him for a while after the baby comes, so I figured I better take the chance while I still could. I'm glad I did, because Jameson had a great time and I pretty much just sat back and relaxed rather than having to try to entertain him at home all day. All in all, a successful day!!

Watching the balls float up the air tubes. Jameson's new favorite place - the construction zone - complete with cranes, building blocks, a dumping chute, tools and lots of kids working together to build stuff.
Unloading the crane.

Building with the giant blocks.

Driving the Life Flight Helecopter. What a great pilot.

Checking out the sweet tarantula one of the museum workers was carrying around.

ANY DOUBTS HE'S GOING TO BE A GOOD BIG BRO???

Only one picture, but I loved it, so I had to post it.

At cousin Ari's birthday party, Jameson was really excited to hold his other cousin baby Bree. After a few minutes I asked him if he wanted me to take her. He said no, and spent about 15 minutes just snuggling her, patting her back and being a good caretaker. Bree even leaned in and gave him a few kisses. AWWW!!!

SKIING

Mike has taken Jameson skiing a few more times this winter, and he is taking to it very well. Last time, he even was making a few turns by himself. If you were skiing by them all you would hear is "Faster Daddy, Faster"!!! And...he looks so adorable in all his ski gear!!!
It's dumping outside today and the boys are going to go up again tomorrow, so maybe J will have his first taste of fresh powder.

FUN AT HOME

I haven't had much energy for running around and doing fun stuff lately, so Jameson has had to do a little more entertaining himself lately. He does a pretty good job when he puts his mind to it.

Here he is making a tunnel for the train Grandma and Grandpa let him borrow to run through. Flying the airplane - he is much more of a stunt pilot than a commercial one. I would have a heart attack if I ever tried to sit through one of his flights. :)
"Shoveling" the snow on the deck. We have a lot more out there now, but he made do with what was there. (Sorry pic is fuzzy - I was zooming in with my phone camera)

Then there's Stout - she knows she's not supposed to get up on the couch, and usually she does pretty well when we are home. Well...the other day Jameson and I were both tired, so we went in my room to lay down. When I came out to get a drink, this is what I found. She lifted up her head and looked at me with a very innocent expression. I let her stay up there long enough to take a picture, but then I made her get down. Poor Stoutie!!!

BELLY UPDATE

I am terrible at taking pictures of myself (who wants those anyway), so I don't have a very good record of my growing belly. Luckily, my friend Sylvia snapped one of me at a party this weekend, that gives a pretty good view. This is exactly 4 weeks before my due date...and yes I AM counting down!!!
