Doesn't he look precious with his little sleeper?
Grandma and Uncle Jeremy Visit
Well, Grandma couldn't stay away, and Uncle Jeremy had yet to meet James, so they headed out here for a visit. Grandma flew in on October 28 and Uncle Jeremy on Halloween and both stayed through the weekend.
And, of course, the guys brewed beer... this time a Belgian Trippel. Jeremy was presenting a presentation on the brewing process for his speech class the following week, so they took lots of pictures of the process to include in his presentation.
Sanitizing the carboy....
The ingredients....
The brew....
Awe, brewing... there's nothing like it!
Chilling the wort....
Straining the wort into the carboy for primary fermentation
Carboy setup for fermentation
Kegged beer in the beer fridge
Moving the German Maibock brewed the weekend before from primary fermentation to secondary fermentation (lagering).

Meeting Nana and Papa
Jason's parents came out to see James for the first time on October 23 through October 26. We all had a fun time.
Jason and Al (aka Papa) brewed some beer, a German Maibock. The beer was a good choice...it turned out really well and the guys had a lot of fun brewing. But first, they had to keg the beer that Jason had lagering in the basement....
Even James got in on the action!
James and his laundry basket....he loved sitting in this for a while (until he got too big for it) and it sure made it easy for Mom and Dad to move him around the house without having to disturb him too much. Looks content, huh?
A little time with Nana....
Chillin' in the kitchen with Dixie!
James in the witch's brew kettle
We went to the pumpkin patch for our pumpkins. What do you think of the one we picked out... looks like a good one, doesn't he?

Fall Leaves
We have a huge tree in our backyard that is just beautiful when it's leaves change colors in the fall.
Around the house.....
Just a few pictures of us around the house.
James had a blast playing in his gym!

First bath...
Well, first bath not in the sink, anyway. He was just too small for his little tub for the longest time.
First weeks home
Jason and Lucinda enjoyed the first weeks home with James. Lucinda took off 12 weeks for maternity leave to get to know James and Jason took off a week from school.
You can see here how proud Dad is of his new little man.
Grandma Romig was there to help out those first few days and Grandpa Romig came out about a week later. Can you tell it's their first grandbaby?

Welcome James William!
Jason and Lucinda welcomed their first baby to the world on August 24, 2008. James William was born at 5:10 a.m., weighing 6 lbs, 10.5 ounces and measuring 19 1/4 inches.
Mom was definitely tired, but all that hard work paid off....look at how beautiful he is!
A proud mom and dad take home their new bundle of joy!
