A Couple More

Jack in his funny plaid shorts
Owen with his "Jesus Sandals" on
Jacker cheering for Mommy and Daddy singing

Jack can finally get his feet off the ground when he jumps!

Jack always tells Owen "don't cry" which seems really cute and sweet but I'm not sure if he is doing it because he feels bad for Owen or if he just doesn't want to hear the noise

Random Pictures and Video

Nothing too exciting today, just some new pictures and a video.

No Colds Will Hold Us Back!!!

We decided to go to the Zoo today even with the boys being sickies since they were still in good spirits and it was really warm out. Jack loved it of course and Owen was oblivious. They were exhausted at the end and were both asleep by the time we hit 696. Jack woke in the car about an hour and a half later and asked to go in his crib!!! He is still asleep in there after 2.5 hours of total napping!
Most of my pictures didn't turn out because I am using an old camera these days since mine broke. These are the only ones that were decent. Good thing my Birthday is coming up...

Poor Baby

Today the blog is dedicated to Owen because we found out the reason he was so mad on our camping trip this weekend. He wasn't acting like himself since we have been home so I took him to the doctor today to discover that he has a double ear infection. He is off and on with his mood but I caught some happy moments today. Both boys have really bad colds. Its a snotty place to live these days! Hopefully Owens antibiotics will kick in quickly and he will be feeling back to himself!

Visiting Day

We visited at Grandma and Grandpas house today since Aunt Sarah is in town from New York for Owen's Baptism this weekend. The boys had a great time hanging out at the house today and we even took Jack swimming in the evening. Owen was going to swim but he fell asleep on the (5 minute) car ride to the pool.
Jack picked out his shoes today. It wasn't raining at all.

Memorial Day Weekend Vacation!

We went on our annual camping trip to Kalkaska for the long weekend. There was around 40 people there this year including 5 babies (Jack was the oldest) We really lucked out and had great weather aside from some chilly nights. Jack could not have had more fun and did really well there. He got to see horses and lots of puppies not to mention he spent all day every day outside! He also got some 4-wheeler rides and all sorts of attention. Owen didn't like the trip as much. He did alright on Saturday but sort of lost it yesterday. He isn't a big outdoor kind of guy. Neil (sadly) won the Second Annual Beer Olympics and got a trophy and everything. We eve had a pig roast on Saturday and all in all had a really nice time.
