Jack Michael Tremblay

We had our baby boy on Feb 17th! Jack decided he wanted to come early and FAST! He came 3 months premature. Mother and child are doing well. Jack weighed 2lbs 15oz (including tubing) when he was born. He is currently at the NIC unit in downtown Denver, and is doing great. He will come home to us in early May.

Waterton Lakes Park

Some shots from Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada (just over the border from Glacier National Park). It's a really cute little town where deer just wander around in people's front yards and outside of shops!

Jon and I did a waterfall hike.

Young grizzly bear up on a hill above the road. We saw 13 bears while on our trip - most were in in Waterton Park.

Another deer in someone's yard. =)

Evergreen, CO

My mom and dad were in town last week for our trip to Montana. We had a day in Colorado though, so we spent it up in Evergreen. It's up in the foothills, only about 40 minutes from our house. Lots of cute shops and restaurants, and a gorgeous lake! There was actually a wedding in the lakehouse (very cute bridesmaids dresses!), but the rest of the lake was available to the public.
Jon and one of the friendly local ducks.

Tapping into my earth mother side =)

My first few rounds of canning: today I made another batch of Jon's fave jalepeno jelly.

Jam made from Oregon blueberries:

2 types of jalepeno jelly (those with a V are vegan for Jon's veggie friend):

Leftover jalepeno jelly for Jon: (it will probably get eaten tonight with cream cheese and crackers - yum!)

Do you think it decreases my earth mother credits that I'm watching Charlie Wilson's War while I can?? =)
