Down time

Alex enjoys some down time n his playmates while Jordan is in his bath. Often Jordan wants to play with Alex wherever he is sitting. It is cute but I would think even a 2 month old would want some space every now and then.

Smartie pants!

So we were getting Jordan's bath ready and he informed us he wanted a bubble bath. He then picked up the bottle of bubble bath, looked at the back and said, "It says put bubbles in bath." Pretty smart thinking for our little 2 year old.

2 months down

This was a week of doctors for Alex. First, Monday we took Alex to the children's dermatologist at children's mercy in Kansas city. He was diagnosed with a spot of mastocytoma. Nothing major, just a nuisance for now. But while there he had to wear a hospital gown. It was pretty cute but yet a little sad that thy have to make gowns that small. Then today, he had his 2 month check up. He weighed 15 pounds 11 ounces (98%) and was 26.25 inches (99%). He is doing great and obviously growing fast. He did have to have 2 shots today and didn't like that at all. Tomorrow marks the end of my play days with the boys. I officially go back to work full time tomorrow. So sad! But at least I'll get to see Mark more often. :-)

Vacation

So the boys (minus mark) and I decided to try smokin on the beaver. I've never been but from What I've been told it seems to be an all day tailgate but my mom specified it would have smoke. Anyway, Alex did great sleeping in the pack n play. Jordan not so much on the air mattress (but really who does). So by this morning, I was laying in bed with Jordan kicking me on one side and Alex snuggled up on the other. I should also mention that Alex did great until 6 in the pack n play and since we didn't climb in with him, we were all in the queen bed. Good thing mark didn't come I guess, he may have been on the not so comfy air mattress by morning.

Super helper

Jordan loves to help out unless it is cleaning up his own things.
He helps grandma peal & core apples for pie, 

He helps pick up all the extra insulation at grandpa's shop,

do anything that involves grandpa, dad and/or uncle Andy,


still more insulation,

and makes sure grandpa wears off any extra energy.
This is our little helper!

Has it been 6 weeks? Time flies!

So it is hard to believe that it has already been 6 weeks.  Alex is growing crazy fast, Jordan continues to amaze us with the things he learns, and the school year started with wheels spinning.  Here are some cute pics.

He's here!

Our newest addition finally made an appearance at 3:24pm today. Alex Michael weighed 7 pounds 11 ounces, he was 21.5 inches long. He came very quickly and is a little bruised due to that fact. We are all doing well.
