Here are the remaining pictures as well as a few shots that JT took himself, very modern compositions if I do say so myself.

JT goes to DTC with Iliana
He are some pictures of JT and Iliana at the DTC, unfortunately they mainly road the carousel and my Cannon PowerShot took a lot of pictures of the kids behind or in front of them. When I happened to get JT or Iliana in frame the pictures were too blurry to be worked with, so the bulk of the pictures were scrapped.

JT goes to Ocean City
The family trip/Anniversary to Ocean City was a complete disaster.
We Left for Ocean City around 1PM on Friday, JT promptly got sick with ear infections to boot and then after much family disharmony we left at 10AM the next day. We never even reached the beach proper, which was a big disappointment.
Next I came down with the flu myself which only made matters worse as at the time we were also hosting cousin Iliana from Boston. With the exception of JT and Iliana, a good time was not had by all, Grandma Gourzis thinks I have the swine flu and I've just gotten back to work after taking half the week off ill.
All is well now, and if work permits tomorrow I should have some pictures up of JT and Iliana enjoying the carousel at the DTC. It's not the Atlantic Ocean, but in a pinch it works for the kids.

JT gets redeye removed on Photoshop online!
Here is a picture which I corrected using www.photoshop.com. It can act as a replacement for Picasa/flickr too, they give you a 2GB to store your photos. I highly recommend the site to anyone who doesn't need to do anything fancy, other than fix some pictures. :

JT in Bean Town
JT had a great time in Boston hanging out with his cousin Iliana for her third birthday. JT and Iliana have much the same chemistry that Catie and Max have and were always running around getting into some sort of trouble with more energy than the poor collection of parents and grandparents following them.
He is a collection of pictures from a trip to the New England Aquarium followed by lunch at Faneuil Hall. Jt wasn't a really big fan of the aquarium as it was much too dark and crowded for his tastes but he loved the Curious George Discovery Center by the penguin tank.
A good time was had by all and with the exception of JT droping a number two in the security line flying was uneventful. JT was so engrosed by the Wonder Pets join the circus that I'm not even sure he knows he was on a plane.

JT and the airplane
JT is getting ready for his first plane ride, up to Boston to see his cousin Iliana. When I ask him if he wants to take a plane ride his answer is always "I do, I want more plane!" Fortunately for us, it is only an hour plane ride and we have Wonder Pets DVDs to keep the little guy occupied. JT loves the Wonder Pets!

JT has a new catch phrase
JT has a new catch phrase - "I need more mine!". Here are some pictures taken from JTs favorite park in Ashburn, Hadley's Park. There would be more picture, however my camera is included in JTs "mine"

JT at Frying Pan Farm Park
Funny story, so Areti takes JT to Frying Pan Farm Park and he sees this spotted horse and the following conversation ensues
JT - "Mommy, COW!"
Areti - "No sweetie, that's a horse. It does have spots though.."
JT - "Neigh!!!!!!!!!!!!"
JT loved the farm and all of the animals and was quite upset when it was time to leave; here are some pictures taken before the meltdown. Horse-Cow pictures not included.

JT at Han Sung Oak!
JT recently went out to Korean BBQ at Han Sung Oak. Hyo's brother Jason and sister inlaw Savina were taking us out to thank us for helping them with their recent move, although we didn't do much besides let them borrow the truck.
Here are some pictures of JT with Allison, Jason and Savina's Daughter. Allison is a bit older than JT so he likes to follow her around and do whatever she does. She is very funny and reminds me of Catie a little bit. These pictures were actually taken at Le Matin de Paris where we stopped for desert. If you are looking for a good restaurant in the Annandale I would recommend either Han Sung Oak or Paris.

New Years Resolutions
I, being the responsible adult that I am have made two new years resolutions this year: skateboard everyday for the next 365 days and take more pictures/videos of the little guy.
Areti and I have both realized that we have missed some golden opportunities to take photos of the little guy, like his second Christmas, his 1st birthday party (which was ironically 5 months late) or his cousins Iliana's latest visit. We even missed taking a video of JTs first complete sentence (for the record it was "The ball is stuck"). To aid taking photographic evidence of the kid we have purchased yet another digital camera. This brings the family total to three, meaning that even JT can get into the mix and take some pictures himself. It's about time he started carrying some of the load instead of just making them.
Everything is stuck these days. The ball is stuck. I no longer want to be in the highchair so I am stuck. I can't reach the keys on the table, hence they are stuck. Here is JTs latest lists of INs and OUTs for the new year:
2008 OUT:
Saying "down".
Quietly pooping.
Reading "Brown Bear, Brown Bear".
2009 IN:
Saying "stuck".
Yelling "Doo Doo!" repeatedly until someone changes you.
Throwing "Brown bear, Brown Bear."
