Jakob's Birthday Party

Yesterday was Jakob's birthday and we had a family party at our house. Jakob was pretty excited.
Here are some pictures of the PARTY!!!

Jakob surrounded by all his gifts.

Oma with the boys having a good laugh!

Levi hid behind the couch and was peeking over, he thought he was so funny!

Uncle Jordan got Jake a combine! So exciting!

Jakob wanted a motorbike party and cake, so I tried my best.

Happy Birthday Jakob!!

It wasn't too long ago that this little tiny baby was born

Our baby boy: Jakob Michael

Where has the time gone!?
Can you believe that my little boy is 5!!!

Busy Week

The boys had a pretty busy week! They played with their cousin Jaden at Omi's house,

And Jakob finished 2 weeks of swimming lessons on Friday!

Big Boy Bed

This week we moved Levi into his "big boy bed". He was very excited and slept really well. After a long busy day he is so tired and he looked so cute, I had to take a picture of him in his new bed.

Swimming Lessons

Jakob was in swimming lessons this week and has been having so much fun!

A Few Days at the Lake

The boys and I spent a few days at the lake. The temp was in the 30's and we spent all our time outside. The boys had a great time catching minnows with their nets, swimming and fishing! We had so much fun!!

Happy Birthday Opa!!

Have a great birthday Opa! Love, Jakob & Levi

Big Slide

We went to my Mom and Dad's so the boys could slide. Jakob loved it and went on it over and over. Levi went 3 times and was done, he preferred to stay in the pool at the bottom and splash around. They both had so much fun!!Jakob would bounce and jump as high as he could, he got some pretty good air!

Working Hard in the Backyard!

Jakob and Levi have been working hard in the backyard too. Jakob put on Michael's gloves and made himself houses and steps out of blocks.

Backyard Landscaping

We finally got started on our backyard this weekend. We've been waiting for our final grade certificate and as soon as we got it, we thought we better get started.

This is what our yard looked like at 9am on Saturday morning:

Pretty exciting stuff!
