Iowa Trip

I am late on this post too, but back in June we went to Iowa to visit some of Colby's family. It was a lot of fun and the boys had a blast with their cousins Quentin and Maci. Below is probably the only time all four of them sat still the whole trip!

Of course it wouldn't be a complete Iowa trip if we didn't get to ride on Great Grandpa's tractors!

Maci and Quentin live on a farm, so there is lots of room to run around! On the hot Iowa days the kids would run around in the sprinklers and shoot water guns.

There was also room for a few baseball games!

And blowing bubbles!

We also visited the Sports Plex in the little town of Shenandoah. Morgan liked the rope swing the best.

Wyatt checked out the slide!

They also had a blast in the ball pit. I am surprised I could find them in that thing!

Water Park

I am a little late on this post, but back in June on a hot summer day we visited the Loveland Water Park. The kids have a blast! But, I would say the water temperature is equivalent to that of a glacier in Antarctica....it is freezing!! But the kids absolutely love it and won't get out of it, we have to drag them away from that place blue lips and all.

NICU Reunion!

Today was the NICU Reunion at the Denver Zoo. Every other year the NICU Department hosts a reunion where they invite all the families that had preemies in the St. Lukes Presbeterian Hospital NICU. The nurses and doctors who took care of the preemies attend and get to see how much the kids have grown. We saw Grace, who was another little girl preemie in Wyatt's room. It is so amazing to see how far these little ones have come from starting out so small. Here are two of Wyatt's nurses, Emily and Stephanie.

Here is Marcie, another one of Wyatt's fabulous nurses!

Of course, since it was at the Zoo, Morgan had a blast. He is ready for his Safari adventure! The weather was a little gloomy today, but that was good because most of the animals were out on display. Below are some of the neat animals Morgan got to see.

Mother's Day Weekend!

I had a fabulous Mother's Day Weekend! It started off on Friday when my wonderful husband brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers to my work. It was such a nice surprise. He also delivered a bouquet to his Mother-in-law (my mom) at her work! What a wonderful guy!

On Saturday my mom came over and we took the boys and went shopping. Then on Sunday Colby, the boys and I went up to Estes Park. It was a gorgeous day out so we walked around the shops and had lunch. Here are my two wonderful boys posing for a picture with their mama!

When we got home from Estes Park we had to get ready for Colby's softball game. We went and watched his game at 8:00pm. His team won by a ton of runs! Morgan was more interested in rolling down the big hills of grass than watching the game.....but he did help his dad warm up before the game by throwing the ball back and forth to him.

Easter Bunny Visit

We stopped by the mall and saw the Easter Bunny today. Morgan was very excited to see him. Wyatt didn't cry but you can tell by his face that he is a little unsure about him.

Future Paparazzi

Every now and then Morgan will sneak into my purse and get a hold of my camera. So at night when I go to download the pictures from the last event we were at, this is what I find....

This one is called "Self Portrait". I like how the light captures his messy face and the snot in his nose.

This one is called "Toes in the Sunlight"! This is his foot posed upon the desk.

Another "Self Portrait". This time the focus is on his amazing jaw line.

This one is called "Typo"! I like the angle he got on the keyboard. It gives it so much more dimension.

This one is entitled "Step into Reading"! Here he has captured both his red socks as well as the Harry Potter books he hopes to some day read.

And last but not least "Thomas the Train Flash Light! This is his Thomas flash light that doesn't have any batteries in it, so what else can you do with it but take pictures of it!
Stay tuned for more of Morgan's amazing photography portfolio!

Easter Egg Hunt

At the bank where my Sister in Law works they host an Easter Egg Hunt every year. So, on Saturday, April 9th we took the boys down for some Easter Fun!

Here is Morgan running around trying to collect all the eggs he can find! The eggs are filled with yummy candy. He did a great job and got a whole basket full of them.

Wyatt was old enough this year to join in on the festivities. He did such a great job picking up the colorful eggs and putting them in his basket.

He soon got tired of putting the eggs in his basket and wanted to take them out of his basket and run around with them.

There was a real bunny at the egg hunt that all the kids got to pet. He was so soft with a squishy face.

As you can see by the evidence on his face, Wyatt enjoyed a bit of what was in his Easter Egg!

The Easter Bunny also made an appearance and the boys enjoyed saying "Hi" and taking pictures with him.
