We finally made the furniture switch to accommodate a new bedroom for Simon.

He's been sleeping with us since birth and he slept in his own little bunk at the Great Wolf Lodge for the first time. We wanted to keep the momentum going and hurried to get his bedroom set up last night, even though painting still needs to be done in both rooms.

He is so excited about his new room, he climbed in and shortly after a tuck in he snuggled in and fell asleep.

My little guy is getting so big! He'll be three tomorrow!

Our computer lab is shaping up just how we imagined...

The boys have our good buddy RJ staying a couple nights and couldn't be more pleased. Their first sleepover!

We had an awesome time at the Great Wolf Lodge the past two nights with two other families. Such good friends, we were asked if it was a family reunion at the restaurant.

Here are all the littles lined up. The best of friends.

Table for 17?

Simon's birthday is in two days and Emily's is next week so they got the birthday song and cupcake.

Lots of computer games during the downtime...

$5.00 in the arcade gets burned up in about three minutes. Ask me how I know...

And my ONLY pic from the water park....I am counting on Kristin for some water park shots. Hint hint...

Simon in the kiddie area. The two slides in there were perfect for both Simon and Xander.

Simon and Hannah Haven't seen each other in a awhile. Look how big they have gotten!

...but new to the kids! Xander is excited to see if anything happens.

...with some new art, passed on from my friend Nicole. I love it!

The desk tables came out of their boxes this weekend. Just a little more painting on the book shelves and the computers, lamps and desk chairs can move in.

Isn't it a fun painting? Local artist Irina Beffa..check out her other stuff.

We made the ugliest chocolate covered strawberries ever. The chocolate didn't quite melt in the microwave like I thought and stiffened up. I had to spatula some onto each berry.

The kids gobbled them all up in a about 5 minutes, so I guess they tasted fine.

A little peak at the family room progress...

Simon had just about every program open, an email about to send and some things downloading on my computer.

Here he is working on Xander's computer now.

I'm thinking it's time to set up his own station in the new family room remodel.

...is so sweet with two readers now.

"I'll be right back," Jason says as he heads to the lego bin.

15 seconds later I have a new iPod dock...

I know! Classy, eh? I might have to check out the additional color choices.

The Shut the Box game is keeping the boys busy. Math is fun!

and found this pic from the last time the kids came over. We are wild and crazy like that! :D
