James is TWO!!!
July 15th was his birthday. I can’t believe it’s been two years since he joined our little family, but I also can’t really remember life without him. We took him to The Kangaroo Zoo with his best friends, and cousins, Lily and Owen (“owey, Wiwwy”) as James says. We’re not sure if he knows they have separate names yet; he always says their names together. James is obsessed with jumping and is constantly testing his limits of what he can jump on and off of, so a place full of places to jump and slide was perfect for him. We came back home to and sing and open presents. He was so tired by the time he opened his gifts around 9. The poor guy had to go to bed about fifteen minutes later, but was a happy boy in the morning when he saw that he still had his new toys.
I made homemade Oreos because he loves Oreos!
The boy is still obsessed with cars…and that was definitely the theme of his presents.
Driving away!
Not as new, but still exciting: James got his first haircut last month! I held onto his baby hair for as long as I could, only giving him a few small trims from the time he was born. Something needed to be done. I let Andrew do the honors…
His new hair! This is James a few days after the cut. You can tell from his birthday pictures that it has already grown quite a bit.
Other news…
We bought a townhouse at the beginning of June! We are so excited to have our own place! It’s still being built so here are some pictures showing the progress that has been made since June.

We had pictures from a visit in between here…but I can’t find them anywhere. We go about every two weeks to take pictures so these next pictures are about four weeks later.

It’s fun for me to see the progress. I didn’t post any pictures of the two other bedrooms or bathrooms because I was trying to make this short-ish (kinda too late for that). We’re so close!
