The Way We Are

Enjoy our video of April 2008

Jack is no longer a scooter!

He is now officially a crawler:

Happy Birthday Leslie!

Leslie just had a birthday, and it was a really fun day!

That magic moment...

Good cake was had by all!

We also participated in the 2008 Dragon Boat Race, a charity event to benefit
T.C. Thompson Children's Hospital.
We got soaked and sore, but we had a super day.

Lovin' every minute of it!


Jack and Aunt Emily working the crowd.


Leslie and Emily smiling pretty.


The calm NICU team (notice Emily eying Andy the photographer)


Jack is lovin every minute of his lunch!


Racing action!

He's soooo hungry!

So, one of the daycare workers had Jack on the changing table for obvious reasons and another lady set some baby food down for a different child, just within Jack's reach.


He has excellent hand-eye coordination.
See the proof below:

Jack, Jack, Jack: Loads of Personality

Jack and Mrs. Jasmina

Jack and Ms. Shannen

Jack is getting to be less of an infant, and more of a toddler-to-be.
To that end, he is moving on up in the insect/daycare world,
and has left the Butterflies class for the Dragonflies class.
He will surely miss Mrs. Jasmina and Ms. Shannen.

Enjoying a bedtime story with Grandpa Hunt...

and peeing (a lot) on Dad's shirt.

Trying to pull up to stand in the bath!
He hasn't accomplished this yet, thank God.

He is very mobile and difficult to catch for scrubbing.

7 months and old during the monthly photo session with Teddy.

This photo doesn't depict Jack trying to eat Teddy, smack Teddy,
throw Teddy and ride Teddy like the ones we decided not to post...
Ha Ha, not kidding.

Finally, here's a video with Mom as director/narrator
and Jack as usual is the center of attention.
Aunt Emily faithfully feeds the boy,
despite his best efforts to spend dinner time playing.

Fun Times with Mom and Dad!!!

Jack loves to play with his Mom!

Look at the smile on the baby and on the babe!

Blowing strawberries with Dad is so fun!





...and YES, we know he's a little orangish...

Decide For Yourself!

Is Jack (who turns 6 months old on 1/23/08) saying Dada? You decide!

Also, there's more of Jack and other good-lookin' babies at www.estprints.com

Jack is 5 1/2 months old, and this bear is just right.

Not too big, and not too small, enjoy Jack's pics, one and all...

Did you know we had a little girl too?

She's almost three years old, and here are her Christmas pictures...

I couldn't get her to smile-but doesn't she look so sophisticated?
She did become a real dog back in July when Jack was born, but we still love her a little bit.

Sleeping Routines Are VERY IMPORTANT with Babies. Seriously.

Besides having Jack OUT OF HIS ROUTINE every single night during the holidays, they were great. Except for when Jack was crying.

On a lighter note, it was great to see all of our family. We Turners are certainly well blessed all around with loving family members. Enjoy our Holiday Memories...

Where's Jack?

And finally, if you haven't seen this picture yet, Jack's Aunt Emily snapped it, and it is great!
