Hope for Spring....

We just had our first sunny (above 0 degree) day in months! The snow has almost all melted. Hooray - there is hope for Spring! It was so beautiful that we had to get out and enjoy it. We met up with Marcus and Ian and hopped on a tram. Wondering why Cisco's making that face? He's just asked whether we could "capture the smell" on camera :) The man in the back of the photo was pretty ripe.We headed down to the Vltava River to feed the swans. Mommy's showing Jackson how to do it.
Like this, Mom?
The swans were very brave.
Jackson and Ian were both pretty fascinated.
Okay, I think I'll give it a try.
Come and get it, swan!
The swans were a little more hesitant when Jackson tried to give them bread...but that's probably a good thing :)
What a beautiful, beautiful bird!
We're pretty sure Jackson would have walked right into the river if he could. Don't worry...Mom's got a death grip on his back!
It's always a treat to walk through town, see Prague Castle in the background and remind ourselves that we live here :)
Back on a tram for the ride home. Jackson's starting to get excited about the trams and Metro trains these days.
So thankful for the gorgeous day, the sunshine, and of course our wonderful baby... Life is good!

10 Months Old!

We arrived safely back in Prague just in time for some beautiful snowfall! We took Jackson over to the park to see what he thought.Jackson's getting a demonstrating on how to eat snow. Daddy's an expert.It was pretty cold, so we only stayed out for a little bit, but Jackson thought it was pretty neat.
Jackson's 10th month has been very fun. He's learning so much now...and he makes us laugh all the time. He's so fun and silly - and did I mention smart? Here's a 2 minute video showing some of his favorite things.
We are so proud of our boy!
