We're back!

So, did you think we fell off of the face of the earth? Pretty close.. ;) The last 2 weeks have been filled with traveling, family and illness (boo!). We went home 2 weekends ago for the 4th of July. L had a long weekend, which was enjoyable. However, I ended the weekend with the stomach flu! Not fun! I ended up staying at my parents for the entire week, which was so helpful - being sick and having the baby. Poor Jackson ended up getting the bug, on a much minor scale, though. You would have never known he was sick unless you were changing his diapers..it could have been much worse. Thank goodness for my mom! The only perk of that flu was that I am now able to get last summers shorts up and zipped (not buttoned)...woohoo! That is a big step!!

Jackson is getting to be one big boy! He goes for his 2 month shots this week (:()..I will update you on how much he has grown after. 2 weeks ago he was over 11lbs! The car seat is definitely getting heavier, and a lot harder to carry up the stairs.  He is still sweet as ever and SO easy. Sometimes Luke and I just laugh at how easy we got off with this baby...I think stopping at one is going to be our best bet, as the next one might come out devilish with red eyes! I don't like to go into too much detail about good he is because I am afraid I will jinx all of his wonderfulness! 

I think I owe you some major pictures...here goes!

5 Weeks:

 Daddy and Jacks taking a nap after a long day of work...

 Attempting a hat to keep the sun out while at Daddy's softball game...

 ATTEMPTING a bottle.. more ended up on the shirt than in the mouth :)

 5 weeks old and headed to Sayre, PA

 Where did all that hair go??

6 Weeks:

 Jacky started laughing and smiling this week! He thinks it's really funny when Luke says "Wanna fight??"

 ..too cute in my outfit from Mema and Papa! 

 Spending the weekend at Mema and Papas

 Hanging out with Grampy G...


 Happy 4th of July! Jack spent his 4th sound asleep. I'm embarrassed to say that we both slept through the noise of the fireworks.

 Mommy and Daddy's first night out away from the little guy! We went to the wedding of one of my Kindergarten buddys, Matt Scanlin. Luke was king of the dance floor, per usual at weddings. Mema and Papa Wheeler watched Jack and got him to drink TWO bottles - woohoo!

7 Weeks:

 sleeping and smiling at the same time.. what a nice life!
 catching up to the bear...

first time sitting up in the Bumbo..his chubby leg got stuck in the leg hole! haha

Jack's first baseball game on 7/11...

 he missed the whole thing
 hanging out with Daddy at the stadium

Ike the Spike - haha

 he may not have been awake, but he was dressed appropriately for his first game!

 It was one of those relaxing, perfectly breezy, but warm nights that you never forget...

 The sky over  Beaver Stadium

 ope..deciding to wake up as we left! :)
