Weekend Update

I'm having storage issues with my photos so I don't have a lot of pictures to share until we get my hard drive figured out and the photos moved over. Until then, I'll probably be blogging few and far between. Or without photos!

Anyway, we got new chairs delivered this past week. At first I thought it might be too much for this room, but now I REALLY love having them in here. It feels cozy.

We had a nice start to the holiday weekend. Jason got home early on Friday (about 2:30p) and we have him home until Tuesday night. We had a birthday party this morning and we're hoping to hit the pool sometime this weekend, since it just opened, in between the forecasted rain showers.
This photo is a picture of Ethan during his speech therapy with Stephanie, his therapist. He's been making a lot of new sounds lately too!

Not only that, but he's been pulling himself a lot too. Mostly he's pulling up onto his knees to look into the toy boxes but every now and then he'll pull up on to his feet. It's so exciting to see.

Jack woke up this morning a bit stuffed up, so I asked him how he was feeling, and this was his response: "My sniffer is not working properly. All that comes out is snuffles. I keep trying to smell stuff but it's not working." I just love the things that come out of his mouth.

I hope you all have a fantastic holiday weekend!!! Cheers to all those who have sacrificed for and have given service to our country.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back.
