Jasper is One!

Jasper turned one on Saturday! He celebrated the event with figuring out how to walk! He's been taking a step or two for about a month, then in the past week to about three or four steps, and now he's doing 10+! Yippee!

Turning one is tiring!

Happy birthday to Jasper sung by Finn, Leif, Tenzy, Esmae, and crew!

Proof that he has indeed evolved to be bipedal- amazingly, this is the farthest I've seen him walk and I just happened to have the camera running!

One Happy Grandma!

A Trip To Florida and a New Cousin - All in One Week!

We just got back from a wonderful week in Florida with Jim's parents and Aunt Nancy Ann! Jasper loved the sun and the water, but especially enjoyed bonding with his Nana, Pop, and Auntie. The time together was much too short and we were all sad to leave. We had an exciting homecoming though as Jasper's cousin was born the night we got back! We were all thrilled to meet Erick and Andrea's new son, Eliason Erick Filby. That little baby is such a blessing and we couldn't be happier for their new family!

Jasper loved the water!

The Crew with Shamu at Sea World. Jasper LOVED the fish and would point and clap. He especially liked the otter and sea lion show.

Two cool dudes.

Very exciting stuff.

And finally, Erick and Andrea with their new little boy, Eli. They make such a wonderful family. Yippee!
