tiger boys



The tigers game yesterday with the boyz in matching sweatshirts! So funny! We enjoyed the game except for our idea to take the kids to the carosel during the most exciting inning, and of course that after waiting in line Sam decided he wasn't feeling it! Oh well, it was worth a try, Chris says that jake enjoyed it!

Baseball

So jake is getting to be quite the sports boy, since his dad has taught him how to swing a bat, he's now swinging and hitting things at every level. I mean hocky sticks are swinging and wacking everything from balls to our new friend Maggies head. (Sorry to katie and maggie!) But just to make it an even playing field he's also found a renewed interist in his little drummber boy (a bear that plays little drummer boy with moving arms and mouth) he is always dragging that around (if the bad is put away) and wanting to dance to the music and of course shuve his finger in his mouth! Very silly this boy of ours.

Oh a happy mom note its now been 1 week of sleeping through the night from 8:30 - 6:30. Chris and i are feeling more human everyday!

Michigan Vacation 09'

Packing for the big week long vaca around michigan. Who knew we should have packed lots more sweatshirts.

Beach photo in Leeland jake played and then whiped out. Chris and i pushed through after 3 wine tastings though. Jake's just a light weight!

At the camp site blueberry pancake morning we had a very happy camper. He loved the freedom of the campsite he ran everywhere!!!!




It was a long and nice vacation. We got to see lots of fun people and had a lot of fun in travers on our own. Jake became a full time walker while we were gone, and now 2 weeks later he's trying to run like the wind, so we're back to crashing again. :-)

Jake is also learning to play baseball, chris holds the ball up and jake can actually take a swing, of course its all on his time but its really fun to watch!
