C'mon Russell lets play!

Quint is so eager for Russell to grow. Today he tried to get Russell to play cars with him. Its a little early but Russell loves any attention from Quint. It was a cute moment.

BK's Birthday Party!

On Friday BK got home early after his exam and we headed to Sam's club:) It was a wonderful evening of warehouse shopping and extra cheap dinner. Eight dollar large pizza and 89 cents soda. When we got home we had cake! Quint and I had fun making a crown for BK earlier that day. Once he saw the finished product he wanted one too. So we made one for him too. I made one for Russell so he would be left out:) It was a very fun evening. A great family birthday party. I love this picture of BK and the boys with their crowns and Quint sneaking a chocolate chip:)

Its 8 am...lets make birthday cake:)

Quint, Russell and I have had fun preparing for BK's birthday. We decorated with punching balloons, a sign and made ice cream cake. Quint loved making the cake...and especially since I let him eat some of the icecream at 8 in the morning. It was a special day:) We are looking forward to celebrating friday night after BK's anatomy exam!

Come Out and Play

Russell is reaching a very fun age. He can play in the activity center and bounce in his bouncer! I love that he is interacting, laughing, and smiling. Quint always tries to love on Russell but today he played with him a bit. It was so cute to see him trying to play around Russell. Here is a short video we took:) I hope this is the beginning of lots of fun play times together.

Daddy bath time!

BK and Russell bonded over a bath today. BK got home early from school and was able to spend some extra Dad time with both boys. This included bath time:) It was a special treat! We know he is working hard at school but it is a great surprise when he gets a little break:)

One month Iowan

On our one month anniversary of moving to Iowa we set up the camera to get a family photo. We don't have too many with us as a family of four:) After a few tries we got a decent one. Its far from professional but it records the time. One month into being Iowan. Thank goodness its not snowing yet!

Grammy comes to town!

Mom said that she came to see our new town, but we know it was just to see Quint and Russell! We had a great visit. I think Quint truly missed Grammy. There was a lot of play time, and in the end Mom tried to pack Quint in her suitcase. Luckily, he didn't fit so we got to keep him:) We look forward to when Grammy and Papa come for a visit in October. It was great to have her around again. What a blessing both the Grandmas are to our boys:)
