San Diego Trip

Last weekend we took a last minute trip to San Diego with the kids. We had a great time and the kids absolutely loved the beach! We'll miss being so close to such a great vacation destination!

I think Amelia didn't stop running the whole time at the beach until she got in the car

Jack's Latest Ultrasound

I just had another ultrasound to check up on Baby Jack's size (I've been measuring a little big). The tech was awesome and she spent a long time getting some fabulous 3D shots of his little face. It took a while to get them because he was rubbing his face with his hands nonstop. He was also practicing his breathing the whole time, you could see his rib cage expanding and contracting. It was truly amazing. He weighs about 5lb 2oz right now, which is pretty average.

Campout

Last weekend we had the annual Roberts Family campout! It was just one night in the forest, but really fun. The kids had a blast getting dirty, eating marshmallows, playing with marshmallows shooters that we made from PVC just for the occasion, using our awesome "butt hut" (a makeshift camping potty), rolling in the dirt, and did I mention getting dirty? I must have used a thousand baby wipes on Colin's face alone. He probably ate a few pounds of dirt over the course of the trip. Here are some photos of the trip.

Colin was a little cranky after his night in the tent (but he slept really well)
He perked up later that morning
