Zack

Burrrr, Alex watching very patiently

All cuddly and warm

Sunday, Matt and I took the boys sledding. Well, we took Zack sledding and Alex went to watch. The hill was a bit icy so we were flying down pretty fast. Zack had a great time. We all have a little cold. Zack has a pretty nasty cough and Alex has a little runny nose. We are anxious for more sunlight each day. I love it when the daylight gets a little longer each day.

The next great Hawkeye offensive lineman??? Alex 6 months

This big boy is off the charts. Yesterday we had his 6 month appointment and here are his stats: 20lbs 11 oz (95%), 29 3/8 inches (>95%) and a melon that measures in the 95%! Alex is a rolling machine. He can get anywhere he wants by rolling, rolling and rolling. He is a big talker and recently discovered his tongue and ears. Main concern is lack of sleeping through the night. He seems to rather enjoy my company every few hour in the middle of the night. The doctor laughed, looked at Alex and said, "this boy can get through the night." Easier said than done, right? Wrong. After three shots and some Tylenol last night, Alex slept from 6:45pm to 6:3oam this morning. He may of slept even longer, but I couldn't enjoy the peace. I had to go check on him. You'd think this was my first baby! Bravo Alex, let's see if we can have a repeat performance tonight.

The morning after celebration

The boys sported their Hawkeye finest last night for bed. Zack wore his jersey all day and wanted to sleep in it too. Who could blame the kid - he has good taste. Zack wasn't real into me capturing the moment this morning.

Cool new shirts!

Grandpa Kent and Grandma Jan sent these cool new shirts for the boys. Zack always love to ham it up for the camera.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all! We hosted the Koch's and my mom for New Year's. Zack was in heaven having so many friends to play with. The kids went to bed around 8:30 on New Year's Eve and the grown-ups sat down to a delicious leg of lamb made by Matt. We had a great time!
