Jame & Tim's Wedding

Here are pictures from the wedding. I'll post the really good ones when I get them from my mom, who has a fancy schmanzy new camera and got some awesome shots of our family on this very special day. Garrett was asked to be the ring bearer and he did a fabulous job. He's got another ring bearer gig later this summer when Jared and Elizabeth get married. I think his performance in Arizona sealed the deal for their wedding!

4 months

Lots to catch up on - including Ezra's 4 month visit. (I know, where has the time gone?) He got a perfect bill of health a few weeks ago for his check up. Here are the stats:

13lbs 7.5oz and 25 inches long

(and for comparisons, he is just a little bit smaller than his big bro was at this point, 14lbs 2.5oz and 26 1/4 inches)

end of may

Hers are some pics from the end of May. Ezra is growing like a weed, smiling and laughing a ton. He started rolling over almost two weeks ago - the boy is going places! Garrett is still loving being a big bro and loves to hold his little brother, as evidenced by the pictures below. We've been spending a lot of time playing outside - even got the little pool out last weekend. Garrett helped me make (and decorate) Mama's birthday cake last week. We celebrated at home and didn'y make our usual trip tp the cabin on Mmemorial day this year - hopefully later this summer!

visit with megs

A few weeks ago cousin Megan came to spend the night with us. It was great to see her and Garrett loved playing with her every minute that she was here. Ezra loved soaking up the sun anf being outside. She also helped me brave the super busy plant farm with both boys to get our vegetables to plant in the garden. Garrett helped to plant the green beans, carrots, and cherry tomatoes, three of his favorite goodies.

indy mini

We took a trip to Indianapolis last weekend were I ran a half marathon and we visited some wonderful friends that we haven't seen in quite a long time. Both boys are such great travelers, which is a good thing, because we are "on the go" a lot. Garrett loved the pool at the hotel and we spent quite a while there on Friday jumping into the water and playing around. Saturday morning brought some lousy weather, so while I was running Cindy and the boys watched from "way up high" in the hotel room and then met me at the park at the end of the race. I ran with my old college friend Eliese, her partner Mandy, and a bunch of their friends and family. It was a great time and I would definitely do it again. We also got to enjoy a wonderful mother's day brunch made by our friends Amanda and Mary who recently moved to Indy. Overall it was a fabulous weekend. the family after the race

getting into the routine

We've been negligent bloggers lately, but we have a good excuse: Cindy went back to work a few weeks ago (BOOOO!!). It's been an adjustment but I think we are getting into the swing of things, slowly but surely. Recently we got a membership to the Henry Ford/Greenfield Village and went with our friends, Tessa, Tina, and Trudi at the end of April. We had planned on going to the village, but the weather was not cooperating, so to the museum it was! Garrett loves to check out all of the cool cars, planes, and trains that they have on display.
