Tubing

Sledding is fun, but tubing is EXTREME FUN. We went tubing at Elm Creek Park Reserve with Matt, Deborah, Brian, Jennifer and kids Laura, Karl, and Damon. It was a blast, Colin had a perma-grin the first few times down and after every run would say "let's do it again!"
Colin and I went down the first few runs together while Angie tended to Justin in the warming house. Here is a video of us heading down the hill as Colin shows Mommy how fun it is on her first trip.

Sledding

Last week we took advantage of the couple nice days and did some back yard sledding. Colin showed Justin all the tricks of the trade.

Two Month Update

2 months old! Already we feel like our little boy is growing up too fast! Justin is doing great. At 6 weeks we packed up the newborn clothes, and he is now wearing the 3-6 months adorable outfits. The past month has been fun listening to him coo, watching him roll from tummy to back, and interacting with his cute expressions and smiles. Sleep is steadily improving with consistent 4-5 hour stretches at night. We have also moved him from the bassinet to the crib and that transition went quite nicely. What has also been fun is watching Justin develop into his own person. He still looks a lot like Colin but has definitely changed into looking more like Justin.

Baptism

This past weekend Justin was baptized. Before and after the baptism, Justin was all quiet with cute coos and smiles. However, during the actual baptism he cried the entire time we were at the front. Afterwards, we took some pictures and again the tears came. As soon as we went to put on our coats and leave, he fell asleep in my arms. It's kind of funny because the exact opposite happened with Colin. We were a wreck trying to keep Colin content before his baptism, and he was great during the baptism and pictures afterwards. Oh well. Overall, things went well, and we had such a nice time with family following the service.

Brotherly Love

Colin is still a fabulous big brother. Not only is he very loving but he is quite proud of his brother. We will be at the grocery store and Colin will go up to random strangers and exclaim, "This is Justin." It is very cute. We are thinking we had better enjoy this now as later the affection will more than likely turn to competition and the hugs into tackles. Oh, the joys of having boys. :)

That's How I Roll

Or in Justin's case, that's how I lean and fall over.

Skol Vikings

Hopefully some of Colin's purple pride can bring the Vikes a playoff victory.
