Mike went to Rochester, NY for a 4-day class. He also worked in a trip to Niagra Falls. So cool! Wish we had been there to enjoy it with him. He leaves in the next few days to go to Bosnia for a month. He'll be participating with other countries in running communication exercises.
The boys and I are going with our good friends, the Moll family, to Amsterdam next weekend. It will be an adventure, since I will be minus a pair of hands to help with the kids, but having a "treat" like that will make the time go faster. Plus, it will make up for Mike's trip to Niagra Falls with out us. ;)
Jonas seems to have outgrown his egg allergy as well. Hurray! We took him in to be weighed (per Dr.'s orders), and he gained 2 kilos. So he's up from the 12th percentile to 18th.
I've taken a "job" (10 hours/week) babysitting a 5 month old, and an almost 2 year old. Including mine, they're all between 7 and 9 months apart--and all boys. Fun! I just sat with them this week, and I'll do next week, but then they have to go to the States so the baby can have surgery. Then I'll probably do October-December. Saving up some travel money!
Ezra's speech continues to improve, but still needs lots of improvement. He'll probably get re-evaluated in Oct. or Nov.
That looks like a good place to sit and read a book, huh?
After bath time and in their jammies.
This was taken at Mike's squadron's "Family Day" picnic. The guy to Mike's right, Halton, is a good friend of Mike's that he works with daily. Almost looks like they could be brothers...
Jonas playing. I couldn't get too many pics of Ezra because he was here, there, and everywhere.
Jonas still is quite "walking" yet. He takes more and more consecutive steps every day.
Ezra turned 2 1/2 on August 13. Jonas is 14 months.
Jonas was going to town with the raspberries. Sorry for the shakey video. There was a big brother that wanted to watch the video too.
I took this video when Mike was playing with the boys before his first trip to NY. Jonas has the BEST laugh. We just love it.
