  • Trip to Ontario

    In mid-July, Silas got to go on his first plane ride as we headed out to Ontario to visit my (Jason’s) family. He did fairly well, even sleeping on our laps on the ride there. Shannon prepared some little packages including candy, ear-plugs, and a poem apologizing for our crying son to appease our fellow […]

  • Silas’ first attempt in the jolly jumper

    Silas is a pretty active little boy, so we decided to try putting him in the jolly jumper when he was only 2 1/2 months old. He’s still working on the head support, and you can see he’s a little wobbly in the video (we made sure to be close by so we could catch […]
