Jump Zone

Zach is always on the go (if you can't tell). In the morning he usually says to me, "Where we going?" If we don't get out of the house at some point in the morning, he gets into lots of trouble, and it's a long day for everyone!
Yesterday we took him to Jump Zone, and he loved every second. When I was taking his shoes off, he said, "I like this place!" He was in bounce house heaven, and it was fun doing something special just for him.
Cheese!
Gran & Z
Colson had a great time, too. ; )

The Lord continues to show me the true meaning of grace through our children, especially with Z as he is adjusting to his little brother. What grace He must have for me countless times a day! I try to remember this when I'm a little hard on Zach.

Before we left JZ I saw a sign advertising a sale on their summer pass, so of course I bought one. I think we'll be going back very soon. ; )


From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another.

John 1:16

You look great! I'm still trying to drop baby weight and my youngest is almost 16 months old! Uggh! Cute pictures - those places are great. Wish I had been the genius to think of that idea!

It sounds like our oldest boys have a lot in common! I always say the Lord teaches me so much about my relationship with Him now that I am a parent :) - so thankful for his mercy and grace!

You look AMAZING, Katie! How in the world? It's hard to believe you had a baby, such a short time ago!

Kelly said...

I can't get over how much Colson looks like Zach. I bet when Zach was a baby, they really looked alike. And BTW, you really do look great!

So glad Zach had so much fun. Before you know it Colson will be joining him jumping around and they'll be the best of friends and let me tell you there's nothing sweeter than to watch your children interact with each other and form such wonderful relationships.

I've heard that is a fun place for kiddos! I'm so glad he had a great time.

Mary said...

ummmm, you did NOT just have your third baby!!!!

I completely agree with you about God showing us his grace through our children. We talked about that a lot this past Sunday in Sunday school....and it blew me away. I just kept thinking of all the things I repeat over and over again to my 2 (almost 3) year old.."Pleeease listen to me!!" "Please do what I ask?"

And then her response....much like mine is to God at time, "ME?? Are you talking to me? You want me to do THAT?"

What a lesson!

Thank you for sharing. Your story and life have touched a place in my heart.

I bet he had the time of his life jumping around--that seems to be the perfect age for jumping (safely) to your little hearts' content!

We live about 2 minutes from a Jump Zone...and we have a pass, too!!! :) It is Connor's favorite place!!! A GREAT way to get out of the house and burn off some energy!! I really like it during the school year....ours is quiet and sometimes there are only a few people there....when AK was still sleeping in her carseat I would take a book or my bible study!!! Maybe you can take advantage of that this fall!!! :)

Dawn said...

Looks like he had a GREAT time and you look EXCELLENT!!! If you didn't have the baby in your arms, I wouldn't believe you had just had one!

You and your family are SO adorable!

JZ is one of our favorite places as well. It's perfect to wear out the big kids and my littlest one just slept the entire time like Colson did. :)
