Like Father, Like Son


Jordan is showing more and more signs of taking after his father. Lately, his musical taste has come to closely resemble his dad's. On car rides, he loves to listen to Vertigo and Get On Your Boots by U2, as well as Viva la Vida by Coldplay. He also enjoys dancing to them - the video above shows him getting down to Get On Your Boots.

And on New Year's Eve, he began to expand his culinary horizons by trying a favorite of Dad's: White Castle! As you can see in the pictures below, he wasn't quite sure what to make of the Slider, but he gave it a try (which is more than we can say for Mom). In the end, he liked the chicken rings and fries better than the burger. But either way, he has made his father quite proud!

Videos of Jordan in Action

We have been trying for weeks to post the videos below, and finally got them up. Here is a glimpse of our playful, rambunctious little boy in action over the past month:

At Christmas, Jordan had a blast playing with his cousins. He especially enjoyed wrestling with his cousins, Eli and Elana!

Jordan also has lots of fun playing with Bailey. He enjoys wrestling her (noticing a theme here?), and loves it when she chases him.

Jordan has been quite the busy boy these last few months. Here's just a few random pictures to recap what he has been up to these days. We've tried to upload a few videos over the last few days, but have had some problems. We will continue to keep trying and hopefully post a some.


Dad and Jordan working on taking the railing off the wall in preparation to paint. Jordan loved it. He enjoys being a helper. He also loves to help mom in the kitchen :)




Jordan loves school (ECFE) - especially craft time! When it is too cold outside we bring the snow inside to play with. He didn't know quite what to think at first.






Jordan's new train set for Christmas. He loves trains lately, thanks to our neighbor's lighted train display.




Christmas was a blast this year with Jordan! Here is Jordan with Grandpa getting out his new truck. He also enjoyed taking care of his cousin Elana's baby when she was busy. Hopefully this will continue when Baby #2 arrives in April.





Eli, Elana and Jordan got to make homemade mini-donuts on Christmas night. They had a blast!



Jordan and Grandma Nancy snuggling.





Jordan has developed a love for cats. We have no idea where this comes from nor do we encourage it. :) Even after the cat bites him he still wants to go find her and either pet her or give her a kiss/hug.




Jordan and Miles on playoff day! Too bad the Vikes didn't win, but we still had a great afternoon hanging out with our small group at the Oklobzija's. Jordan loves playing with Miles!



Finally, here's our little guy sleeping on his new Mickey Mouse stuffed animal (from Aunt Buffy, who spent Christmas in Florida this year). He has been sleeping a lot lately with all of the fun things he has gotten to do and all the fun people he has gotten to see. We hope you all are doing well!
