Levi's Birthday Celebrations

Levi had quite the week of birthday celebrations!

It all started on Sunday with his family party. We invited Levi's Omi's, Opapa's, Oma, Opa, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jordan, Auntie Kristy and Alex over for dinner and cake.

Levi blowing out his 5 candles!
Opening all his gifts.


Monday we went out with Grandma & Grandpa to Red Robin for a Birthday dinner. (no pictures of this event)


Next was the kids party on Wednesday, his actual birthday.
Another candle to blow out!
Levi's friends with him at Let's Play! He had such a great time playing with his friends. Levi told me in the car on the way home that it was the best birthday party ever!



One last cake the night of his birthday after dinner!
It was a great week, celebrating Levi turning 5 years old!!

Happy Birthday Levi!

Welcome Baby Alex!!!



We are so thrilled that baby Alex has joined our family!

My brother Jordan and his wife Kristy gave birth to this little cutie on Tuesday. We went to visit them at the hospital a couple hours after he was born.





Jakob loved holding Alex!



Levi wasn't too sure about holding Alex yet, but he sure loves his new cousin!

Jakob's Glasses

Jakob got his first pair of glasses this week. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that Jakob was squinting a lot and so I took him to get his eyes tested. It turned out that he needed to get glasses. He has a pretty small face, so it's pretty hard to find glasses for him but we found a pair that he liked.
He was really excited when he could read the time on the microwave from across the room. Poor kid, all this time he thought fuzzy was normal!

Seriously??? So much Snow!

This morning it was so beautiful, bright and sunny. Zack and I went out on the deck to see how warm it was and I couldn't get him to come inside! It was really nice and warm, but there is still so much snow!!! Zack was still in his pajamas, but I let him play out on the deck anyway. Zack hasn't really played in the snow that much and so he was very interested in it. He shoveled a bit, picked up the snow, inspected the snow and threw it around. We were outside for about half and hour and it wasn't cold at all. I can not get over how much snow is still in our backyard in April!!!

Zack's Favorite Game

Zack's new favorite game is to lay down on the ground and cover himself up with a blanket. He also puts the blanket over his head and walks around. He thinks it's really funny and we think he is funny while doing it, so of course he thinks it's even funnier!!
