Do you believe in Santa?
Wow! We had an amazing holiday week with our families and friends! We started off with a trip to Harrisburg. It was so much fun experiencing the holidays through Jack's eyes! Even though he did not care too much for opening his presents, he was a happy and loving boy through all of it! On Christmas morning we headed home and got ready for presents and dinner at my mom's house with the Helms clan! Then, finished it out with a trip out to West Chester for another Helms get-together and the (in)famous Chinese pollyana!
Where's Jack??

10 months
On November 18th, Jack turned 10 months old! He is a fast crawler, pulling up on everything and attempting to take some steps when holding onto someone's hand. This is such a fun, and exhausting age! He laughs when we laugh, eats anything I put in front of him and is such a happy, pleasant, little boy!
Matt and I feel so blessed that we have such a wonderful and healthy family and amazing friends! Thanksgiving this year was so special because we were able to spend it with both of our families and Jack was able to hang out with all of his grandparents, great aunts and uncles, 2nd cousins, first cousin and even his great-grandparents!!

The Great Pumpkin
Last week, my mom and I took Jack to a pumpkin patch. It was so much fun and this is the first holiday that I get to really appreciate as a mom and seeing my son take it all in!

8 months old!!
On September 18th (I know I'm a little late) Jack turned 8 months old. He also gained a cousin that day. My sister had a beautiful baby girl, Sydney Patricia on that Friday night!
Jack is crawling everywhere, pulling up on everything and really turning into a curious little boy! He also got his first cold, had a double ear infection and is teething all at the same time. Even with all of those ailments, Jack was happy and just as cuddly and cute as always. He still only has two teeth, but is growing tall and weighs 17 lbs. I am sad that my baby is no longer a baby, but am so excited to see him learn new things every day and wake up each day with a huge smile on his face!

Swimming, Swimming in the Swimming Pool
We headed over to Central Jersey for a pool party at Matt's boss' house. He has an amazing backyard and the pool was the place to be! Matt and Jack stayed in the pool for quite a while and Max even ventured into the pool to dip his paws!

7 months old
Jack turned 7 months old on August 18th! He is now officially army crawling, into everything, plays with Max (sort of) and loves to eat anything I put in his mouth...or he puts in his mouth! This is such a fun age, but definitely has Matt and I rethinking our picture frames that Jack can grab, how to hide Max's dog food, and how to attach a swifter mop on his belly so he can clean my floors?!?!?
