Alright here we are again at last. As of late Jack is smiling and talking a lot more. Here is a video compilation to prove it, though the smiles illustrated are unusual one that I thought were funny. The second clip is Jack in his pajamas that are on backwards (got to love Chris putting him to bed every night!)
Jack is also an awesome sleeper. We owe it all to our new favorite book- the baby sleep solution. Jack goes to bed at 7 pm then stays in his crib until 6:30 am; he doesn't even wake up then, we get him up to eat. He has been sleeping about 12 hours since about 8 weeks. Seriously, the book is great.
Other notable events- we've started potty training as well! Not really. Hopefully he won't hate us in the future because of this picture but it is so cute.
He did however go swimming for the first time (even though he looks grumpy he kind of liked it for a little while.)
went to a Independence day parade,
and is now blessed. Check out his awesome vest and tie. 
In the lives of Chris and Hilary, Chris pasted his thesis defense and will be able to graduate with his masters in August. Hilary has only 3 1/2 weeks left of work. Then we move to Maryland after a brief jaunt to Alaska.Our fate will be decided on July 15th. We have entered into a housing contract and have our financing all lined up, but we just now need approval from the home association to buy our unit and be allowed to the live there. The board of directors will meet on the 15th to determine if we qualify. If we don't get in, I don't know where we will live and that will make me quite unhappy.
