Go Blackhawks!


Matt took Zack to his second Blackhawks (NHL) game on Saturday. Are we crazy? Yes! The game didn't start until 7:30 (30 minutes before Zack's scheduled bedtime). Zack made it through the first period and was spent. I think next time, Matt will take him to a day game.

7 months


Yikes, where does the time go? My baby is 7 months today. He is such a sweet little guy. We all love him so much. Even when Zack is going a million miles an hour, he takes time to give a little love to "Big Al." Alex is a rolling machine. He has perfected the roll to get him anywhere he wants to go or shouldn't be. He sits all by himself. In the last week he has been getting up on his knees. I hope that crawling is not on his mind! He loves to talk and is pretty easily amused. He has outgrown his infant carseat and is now in a big boy carseat facing backwards. My life just got ten times harder having to buckle him in and out of the new carseat. Alex is on a pretty predictable schedule now. He wakes up around 6:30am and goes to bed around 6:30pm. He usually takes two naps. He is eating 3 meals a day, takes one bottle and nurses three times. By the looks of it, he'll soon be joining his brother on the ice.

Sunshine!





The sun came out on Sunday and we took advantage of the beautiful day. A school near our house has a wonderful sheet of ice for skating. Zack loves being outside on his skates. He is getting faster and faster each week. Alex and I enjoyed soaking up a little vitamin D.
