Saturday Soup

Happy Valentine's Day! DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT THE POST BELOW! Shawn is so great and made me a "Blog Card" Love it! He also surprised me with flowers yesterday. I like that he gets me flowers because they are something that even though you know is going to die - you spend money on to tell someone you love them! Thanks Shawn, you're the best.

Here's what the boys have been up to this week. The weather here in Iowa is crazy. We started off the week with 60 degree weather and ended it with 6 inches of powdery snow. Sam doesn't seem to care whether there is rain or shine, as long as he is outside he is HAPPY!
Sam has started to "pump" while swinging! He is getting so big and so funny. He insists upon wearing his helmet almost all the time when he is outside. He looks like "hyper active boy" (SNL Mike Myers skit). Poor Jack had his first ear infection! Yuck! He had a cough which I took him in for, and he came out with an ear infection. Poor little guy is still smiling and sweet as ever. In fact he has been sleeping through the night since this started (9-8)!! They weighed him at the doctor's office, and the chunk weighed in at 19 lbs. 15 oz. with clothes on! He got another lower front tooth, and so between the ear infection, teething, and cold - he's been pretty leaky. Here's a video (mostly for Grandmas) of Jack-O!We got the boys some fun things to tell them we love them - Jack(rubber ducks)and Sam(CandyLand and rubber boots) Here's a cute picture of the boys in the same shirt at about the same age. They do look quite a bit alike! We love these two boys so much! Happy Valentine's - we love you!

What a nice valentine Shawn posted for you! He's a keeper. How long will you guys be in Iowa for or what state will you be in at the beginning of July? We are going to be making a trip up to Nebraska and then over to UT.

Tell him to quit growing up...Your boys look a lot alike in their Valentine's shirts. Also, I think Jack weighs as much as Keaton! THe chub!:) Is this the longest comment ever? Love you guys!

Your boys are just so cute! Poor little jack and his ear infection. I hope he's feeling better now. I love that Sam has to wear his helmet outside ....totally made me think of SNL :).

I think it's so cool you have those pics of the boys in the same shirt...it's so fun to compare and see how they look alike and how they don't.

They look so similar! What did you think of our favorite show tonight? We'll have to get together sometime for it like last season. Talk to you soon.
