Having fun at Great Wolf Lodge...















 We spent the weekend for Valentine's and Tyler's 4th birthday at the Great Wolf Lodge. It was a blast. Only 30 minutes away from our house is this fun place. It had an indoor water park, and full of family fun stuff to do. We loved it and here are a few pics! Chase did not know what to think so he stayed close but Tyler had a ball!

The boys are doing great! After 9 shots total: 5 for Tyler and 4 for Chase...we ALL survived!

Here are the stats: 

Tyler age 4
height 41 inches, 75%
weight 37lbs, 75%

He may have a touch of asthma. We are going to start him on some Singular to see if that helps, he coughs alot and seems to need inhalers when he gets a cold. I am not concerned, just will help him to be more comfortable...

Chase age 15 months
height 31.5 inches, 75%
weight 21.14lbs, 10%
head 19.3, 95-97%

Chase is great, growing well, just a bit on the skinny side but looks good so no worries from the doctor. He is just so busy, he burns off anything he eats:) 

Love to all...Colin

What a great day! It seems so hard to believe it has been 4 years. Such a blessing and we had such a great time with our friends! Just a good old fashioned party at home with Ebba and the kids and Sheryl and the kiddos. Pizza, games, cake, balloons...fun!

My sweet sweet new nephew! 
Austin is the cutest! He is a little squeaker and is just the best addition to our family:)
My sis has been a champ, she has been up and busy and enjoying these early days. I have had fun with my nephew and it is so sweet to have this special time with him. 
Gotta run, I am heading back up to the hospital after I pick up something yummy for my favorite mommy!
