Bigger brothers

Ever since Jason was born, Ethan has really enjoyed being a big brother. Now that Christopher is here (pronounced Kiss-tow-her by Ethan), he is even more excited to have brothers. Here are some pics of our boys playing together. We are going to try and get a nice family pic while we have CJA but we can't even manage to get out of the house in the morning without hours of prep. A picture with everyone behaving and dressed sharp seems like an impossible feat. So my candids when I get the chance will have to do. I can safely say these will not make the Christmas card.

Our first baseball game

Aunt Susan got Durham Bulls tickets and we all went. Ethan's favorite part was the popcorn and the play area. He really behaved well and had a blast with Susan and her friend Amanda. Jason slept through most of it in his sling. We didn't stay until the fireworks since it was tied and heading into extra innings (they later lost) but we had a great time. Ethan even got to see Nina and play with her on the slides. Here is a pic of the boys (totally pooped) once we got home. Ethan is wearing his baseball hat that Daddy bought him at the ballpark. He has not let go of it since and keeps asking to go to a baseball game.



Earlier today, E had his first PB&J (one of my personal favorites) and he ended up wearing more than he ate as usual but seemed to love it.

July 4th Celebraton

Today we all packed up and went over to Michael's to swim and cook out. Do you have any idea how much gear and stuff you need to pack for a 2 year old and a 1 month old? I needed a wheelbarrow to get it all to the car.

Getting ready to go:

Susan met us there and we had a fabulous day. Jason pretty much slept through it and Ethan enjoyed the pool and the trains. Jeff said it felt like a resort as he floated on his raft and drank rum lemonade. We had cheeseburgers, chicken, and ice cream cake for desert. It had blue icing and Ethan wore most of it but had a great time.

Here is a lovely pic of Aunt Susan with the sleeping baby Jason:
