Weekend Away

My sister watched Jackson and Jordan for the weekend for Doug and me. We had fun sleeping in more than normal and sleeping all through the night without having to wake up to put a binky in a baby's mouth or feed him. On our way to my sisters' house we bought a bumbo. I've been wanting one of these for awhile because Jordan seems to want to sit up a lot. But I haven't wanted to pay the 40 dollar price for one. So I've been looking on craigslist to find one. After emailing several people who had already sold theirs I finally found one for $25. And it came with a tray. Here's Jordan enjoyng his bumbo. It's great for feeding him. Much better than his rocker that would get covered in baby food but wasn't quite as easy to clean.
On Saturday night my parents gave us their Mariners' tickets so we could go to the game. We went early and walked around the stadium a little. We had fun even though the Mariners lost...
Here's Doug after the game.

and me....

Then the security guard saw us taking pictures of each other and offered to take one of us together with the big Safeco sign in the background.

We picked up the kids on Sunday morning before church. We came home, got ready for church, and went to church. We came home, Jack took a nap, I made dinner, then Ashlee brought her kids over for me to watch until tonight. So Jackson has a lot of cousin time the last few days; only a few hours without them.

Sam, Kimber, Jackson, and Allison. They were supposed to be showing off their gum I just gave them. But instead Jackson swallowed his. It was only his second time having gum. But the first time he didn't swallow it so I thought he would do ok this time. Superbabies Alli and Jackson on their way to their naps. (which they really needed...)

During nap time Kimber, Sam, and I made "snickerdoodlebops" (as Sam calls them) which are also known as snickerdoodles to the rest of us.
