Jak is free from sin! We just returned from a 10 day trip to Indiana and Michigan. We visited Great Grandpa, soaked up some good time on White Lake, visited with so much extended family, saw lots and lots of fireworks and finally baptized Jak. Travelling with two babies is about as easy as moving with two babies. The actual travel part was great. Both kids love running (or crawling) around the airport, smiling and talking to strangers and both managed to nap on the plane. The big challenge is sleeping in multiple houses and moving around a bunch. We spent one night in Indiana, 5 nights in Whitehall, 2 nights in E. Lansing then back to Indiana for a night.....by the end of the week I didn't know where I was when I woke up! Every time Jak or Lillian woke up, Mike and I jumped to our feet, doing ANYTHING to keep them quiet and get them back to sleep.....praying they hadn't awoken the whole household! I was so tired when we came back to Denver, I actually couldn't wait to go back to work...I needed a vacation from our vacation!

Visiting with Great Grandpa! |
|
Lillian loved her blow up bed from Grammy & Opa, it travelled with us all over Michigan! |
|
Lillian and Layla found it very funny to switch Aunt Cathy and Daddy's hats. We couldn't get Mike's U of M hat off Layla all week (and we haven't seen it since!) |
|
Lazy pajama mornings at the Lake :) waiting for the sun to come out. |
|
Getting our toes ready....just in case the sun comes out. |
|
Playing with Grandpa - still waiting for the sunshine! |
|
A little iPad fun...you guessed it...while we waited for sunshine! |
|
Finally...we took a trip to an indoor bounce house....so much fun! |
|
Finally we got to show off our "beach" bodies! |
|
God Bless the USA and the Coopers - for hosting 39 people for dinner on the 4th of July! What a great time! |
|
Faster Daddy Faster! Layla would say, "Faster!" and Lillian would turn to her and say, "You want to go faster, ok" and she'd rev the boat throttle. Lillian LOVED the control! |
|
Pool time! |
|
Jak's Baptism at St. John's in East Lansing |
|
We were so honored to have Mike's cousin, Jeffrey perform Jak's baptism. Jeffrey spoke about joy throughout the ceremony and Jak heard the message loud & clear. He could NOT have been happier! |
|
Back in Indianapolis, Grammy took Lillian past the firehouse, she got a souvenir hat and a great memory to go along with it! |
