Choo Choo Bob's

Today our family ventured over to St. Paul to visit Choo Choo Bob's!  The front of the store has a huge train track set up, and we all had fun watching the train zoom around the track (especially Quinn!) ...then we visited the back of the store that had multiple tables set up with different train tracks to play with. This was a hit with Quinn, who had a lot of fun playing with the trains!

Some favorite photos

I could literally write a book for each caption in these photos above... but I have a baby who loves to snuggle in mommy's arms {constantly}. This is fine by me! ...but it does make it

difficult to blog! 

These are just a **few** of my favorite

pictures in the last few days!  

This one is for the Grandparents

On Saturday morning, Jan and Stan started their journey to Arizona. They'll be there until April, and we're going to miss them so much!

...On Saturday, my parents were also vacation bound. They are currently camping in Hawaii for the next two weeks. We hope

all four of them have an absolutely wonderful time on their

trips -- but so that they don't forget how extremely adorable

their grandsons are... here are some photos :)  

Jack's Baptism - Saturday, January 14, 2012

Listening intently to Pastor P. talk about the importance of baptism.

 Quinn had pulled the chair up all by himself. He wanted to be involved in the conversation, too!

 Through water and the Word...

 Receiving the sign of the cross on the heart.

"...In the name of the Son..."

"...Amen."

I'm a child of God!

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19 (NIV)

Quinn's first haircut!

 Not too sure what to think...

 And he didn't smile once!

 But boy oh boy, did he look cute!

 And finally....... {with the help of a sucker}

He SMILED!
