Meeting a Red Wing!

Well, last Friday Jon's best friend Jeff Lichon, had a golf outing for his new spinal cord foundation ( Jeff Lichon SCI). It was at the Sawmill golf course they had over 70 golfers and more for dinner to raise money for spinal cord research. Jeff has been in a wheelchair since high school, you'd never know it though. He does anything he wants and nothing is to big for him to try, at least once. Anyways, he had a special guest golf with them, Darren McCarty from the Detroit Red Wings. We brought the boys out with us so that Ty could meet him. He brought his puck with him that he scored his first goal with last hockey season and a couple others and he signed them for him, he also happen to have on his hockey shirt and Darren signed that for him too. He was very excited to meet a real hockey player that we've watched on TV. Here's a great photo of the family with him...

Snack Time!

Anyone else's kids want whole green peppers for a snack? My kids are a little strange.



Also, since I've been back to work I think we've solved Levi's tummy problem....I think he was really just hungry. He's been eating 5-6 onces in the bottle and hasn't had many crying fits. Who knew that we'd have a kid who likes to eat...I'm not sure how that works. It's still a struggle for Ty and Wyatt to eat a meal. Levi is sure filling out nicely....

Levi 3 months

Well, my maternity leave is officially over. It's been twelve weeks and now I need to go back to work. I'm not ready to go back, full time. This is the worst one yet. I had so much special time with all my boys over the last 3 months that I'm going to miss each one of them everyday I'm at work. I always thought that I'd be a stay at home mom, but life handed me something different. Thank goodness that my mom watches them for me, someonw you know you can trust. Otherwise it might be a lot harder. Levi is getting so big, but is still having some tummy problems. He cries 2 hours after he eats every time. the doctor said at his last check up that it was probably a growth spurt and he was hungry but it's been 4 weeks of it now so I think it's time for a call. Anyone have any suggestions? Here's some of the many smiles of Mr. Levi....

Wyatt and Levi

Just thought I'd share this photo of Wyatt being the big brother this time. I was packing to go up north and Levi was fussy and when I turned around I found Wyatt reading to him to stop him form being crabby!

Our trip to the U.P.!

Last weekend we took at rode trip up to the U.P. with Jon's mom to visit Jon's middle brother Joe and his wife Monique. We had lots of fun! We walked on the docks, played at the park, went to an Art fair, the childrens' museum and swam in Lake Superior in our underwear and naked, we did end up finding a bathing suit for wyatt! We also went down 160 feet on a trail from the highway rest stop to the where the Cut River empties into Lake Michigan! The boys loved the beaches and water and of course the Mackinaw Bridge! This was Wyatt and Levi's first time up there. It was so nice to visit with Uncle Joe and Aunt Monique, we don't get to see them too often since it's a 6-7 hour drive. The boys all have a necklace that Aunt Monique made them with one of the stones they found at Presque Isle when we went out on the break wall.
