Gloomy day

Well, after a few nice days, we're bogged down by clouds today.  I was hoping to get to take Jack for another walk today, but it's gloomy and rainy.  Maybe by the time I get home, it will have cleared up for a bit. 
I'm feeling crunch time before Jack's birthday!  We've got a busy week this week and a full weekend.  So, his birthday is going to be here before I can blink!  Yesterday, Reid had the day off so we got Jack's hair cut for the 3rd time.  He was so well behaved and just stared at the cars out the window, for the most part.  Our hairdresser even put a little gel in and made it spiky.  He looks more and more like a little boy, each day. 
Tonight, Reid has off again, so we're going to get to watch our favorite show, LOST together.  That's a real treat because we always have to DVR it and watch it at a later time.  So, it will be nice to do that together.  Plus, our friend Sarah and Patrick are joining us! 
Reid is working the rest of the week like normal.  I'm anxious for the weekend.  Jack's "Auntie Sam" is coming into town.  We haven't seen our good friend in so long since she moved to Denver a couple months ago!  She and Jack have birthdays 2 days apart...so we're going to celebrate with her while she's in town.  We're so excited!  And, Uncle Benny is going to come and keep Jack on Saturday so mommy can have some girl time, too.  (Thank you Uncle Ben!)
On Sunday we are getting Jack's 1 year old pictures taken at a park.  It's definitely time for an update, since the last ones were at 7 months.  We're hoping to snap a family pic or two, as well.  I'm praying for nice sunny weather...so GO AWAY gloom!  :)
Until next time...
