Another successful trip to the Jolly Jobes! Some might say that I wasn’t the best visitor since I came down with a *slight* case of the sniffles on day 2…but I say that I made up for it in enthusiasm and hand sanitizer!
On Saturday, we spent a lovely fall day at the Chelsea Market. John is jealous that Jack can pull off “casual” better than he can. And seeing how adorable Jack looks in that plaid flannel, I have to say that I agree.
That night, we were all exhausted after a long day of walking around–that is, except for Jack, who had extra energy after spending the day in the buggy. He can’t stay still these days…not when there are toys to be played with, computer keys to be smashed, and coffee tables to be pulled up on. Even when it’s time to be changed, he’s got more important things to do.
My favorite thing that Jack does is when he thinks something is really funny, he throws his head back really far and cackles.
And the best part is that it doesn’t take much to garner this reaction. Those mum mums–hilarious!!
On Sunday, John and Jack went for a jog and then, Josh and Jen Harris–also visiting from the U.S.– came over for Thai food.
On Monday, we celebrated Caroline’s (early) birthday with tea at the Ritz and it was wonderful. We all put on our Sunday best and Jack was on his best behavior.
Well, most of the time…
Caroline and John continue to be amazing parents and you can tell by how Jack’s face lights up every time he sees them. We did take Jack’s “9 month” picture four days before his 10 month birthday but hey, you can’t have it all! If anyone asks, he just didn’t grow much in October.
Thanks to Caroline and John for another fun-filled trip to London–y’all are the best hosts. And a huge THANK YOU to Matt and Susan for making this trip possible.
Can’t wait to see John, Caroline, and Jack for Thanksgiving next month!
xoxo-
Aunt Charlotte
