Happy 1/2 Birthday Jack Brother!

No teeth, just lots of slobber. Not sitting up, just rolling from one place to the other. Loves all baby food and starts kicking and swinging his arms when he sees it come out. No fussing, all smiles (all the time- and I'm serious!) A head full of spiked blonde hair. 19lbs. 4 oz. of sweet sugar!


Its hard to believe 6 months ago today, Jack was just a few hours old! Kind of sad to think those few months are gone forever...but the best is yet to come! He is still the sweetest little baby God ever created. He has the sweetest personality. He just smiles an drools all day long. He did, however, have to go to the doctor today for his first sick visit. He caught a cold while at the lake this weekend which also led to some serious fluid behind his left ear. So we're working on getting him back to his healthy self ASAP.


We had a wonderful 4th at Lake Martin with almost all of the Wells'. There were 29 of us there and 5 of them were missing. Uncle Mike and Aunt Maria were gracious enough to open their home on the lake to all of us and I am so grateful they did. Its been about 8 years since we've all been together (other than when Grandmama Orene passed away). There were the 3 brothers and their wives, their 8 children (minus one) and 5 spouses, and the 10 great grandchildren for a grand total of 29 humans in one house!!! If I find any extra time between now and Thursday (when we leave for the beach for a week) I'll get a post done on our lake trip.
Until then, have a great week and be safe!
