Looking back on the Summer



We made it back to Provo about two weeks ago, we are glad to be done with our summer job. Even though the summer was long, we were able to go do and see some things in Atlanta. Jacks favorite place that we visited was the Aquarium. We saw whales, sharks, jelly fish and more.

It was a nice break from working all day! The best part about it was seeing how happy jack was! We were also able to go to a couple of Braves games. One game we attended was at night. That game we dressed Jack in a braves outfit, but it was so hot and humid that we finally took it off of him. Once the outfit was off of him we noticed that his poor body was covered in lint, the worst was under his arm pits. He was blue all over, fortunately it did not bother him at all. We left the game early not because our team was losing, but because Jack's face was bright red.

After being in Georgia for four months we were ready to come back to Provo, I never thought I would say that. We traveled through Amarillo to see my family, it was a lot of fun. My family just got a puppy named Chomper, and boy did Jack love him. Whenever Chomper ran anywhere Jack giggled so hard. Chomper also loved licking Jack's feet and ears, at first Jack did not know how to react, but that soon ended. Jack smiled and tried his hardest not to laugh. It was so fun to watch him so excited. When we left Amarillo Jack was sick. He had 22 poopy diapers in two days! About every hour we had to stop to change him. Over the next five days I changed literally 45 poopy diapers!! We bought a new package of diapers before we left Amarillo, and by the time we were in Provo, which is about a twelve hour drive, we only had one diaper left. I think that I should go in some record book! I never want to have an experience like that again!

Jack cracks me up, he is so happy all the time, I can just picture him laughing his head off at the dog. I'm glad he is feeling better and I'm glad you guys are back in Provo!

I hope he never poops again, or at least until he can change himself! :) Where are you guys living now??

Finally an update! Awww, I miss you guys so much... and Jack is the most adorable little thing. I can tell he is the same baby... but he also looks really different. Like a big boy instead of a baby! He is the cutest. I can't wait to see y'all again! I know I'll come to Utah sometime in the next few years :( I'm glad you had a good summer... but I'm even more glad that you don't have to work that job anymore. It didn't sound too fun. What are your plans now???
