A few things...

We've been busy this week. Visited Grandma and Grandpa Abt in Ste. Gen, played in the sand box, had lunch with Brown Bunny, Darrell's birthday today, and Megan update.

First: We headed down to Ste. Genevieve to see my mom and dad and to visit with Grandma Strubbe. She had not met Megan yet.

Second: Jack's been busy playing and being 2 1/2!

Third: Happy Birthday Darrell!!!!! We love you!

Fourth: Megan had her 2 month check up today and is doing great! She is 12lbs. 7oz. and 22 inches long now. Her numbers are all where they should be and she got her first round of shots. She screamed for just a second and then calmed down. Let's hope they all go that smoothly.

Here are some pics!

Jack gives Megan style tips

What started off as Jack showing Megan his Mickey sticker book, turned into decorating Megan...

In between snuggle time

Now that Megan is part of our family I've notice how big Jack is getting. How it seems to me that Jack was never as little as Megan. Jack has ventured into the "no" phase. "No" to being held, "no" to bath time, "no" to almost every question asked! However last night, while reading bedtime stories to Jack, he came up to me in the rocker and asked to sit on my lap. He hasn't sat on my lap for story time for awhile now, so of course I said "yes!" He climbed on up and helped me finish his book. We said prayers, he turned around on my lap and said, "night-night mommy, love you." I got a bedtime kiss and watched my little boy climb in his bed.

I am somewhere in between snuggles. Jack seems to be growing out of them and Megan hasn't quite started yet!

Jack helped me pick these this morning!

4th of July

We didn't do a whole lot for the 4th, Megan's still a little too little. We spent Sunday out at Grandma & Grandpa Thompson's house. Jack spent most of the day running and riding the 4-wheeler with Pa-pa and daddy. Megan and I spent the day inside! Thanks for the great food and oh-so-yummy brownies Marsha!!

Here are some pic's from the weekend.

Megan update

Megan is growing like crazy! We went back in for her last weight check yesterday and she is weighing in at 8 lbs. 7.25oz.!! She has been eating like a champ and is in a growth spurt! I can barely keep up with her. Tomorrow Megan will be 4 week old and I can't believe that my sweet baby has been here that long!
Jack is doing great too and has also hit a growth spurt! We have jumped a shoe size in a matter of 3 weeks!! I bought him new sandals for summer and he has only worn them for about a month!! What am I gonna do when he hits puberty?!?!
