Wisconsin Weekend #1

We went to Wisconsin two weekends in a row this month.  The first weekend, I took the three boys up to visit my brother, sister-in-law, and their three boys while Jim stayed home to get the house ready to sell.  It was a mild weekend for Wisconsin in February so we were able to spend some time outside.

Ryan led the way on his bike.
Adam is on his big kid bike.
Lukas, who is 3 years old, already rides without training wheels!
Charlie enjoyed the sun in his stroller.


Uncle Patrick tried to teach Jack how to ride a bike without training wheels.  I don't think he's quite ready; maybe he will be by this summer!
Don't forget this cutie...
Charlie's sticking out his tongue at you...
Jack brought his camera with him, and it was a big hit.  All the boys loved to take pictures and videos and then watch them.
The cousins before church on Sunday morning:
Lukas:
 Adam is wearing a broken ball on his head.
 Jack, Patrick, and Charlie sure did have fun with these three:
 We came home on Monday, and then went back to Wisconsin to visit Jim's sister and her family on Friday (new post with those pictures soon).  During our few days home, we did laundry, unpacked and repacked, and Charlie got a bath (among other things).  I love this towel my cousin Colleen made for Charlie.
 Charlie likes to grab his toes, and they often end up in his mouth these days.



 Jack and I made Monster Cookies with red M&M's for Valentine's Day.  He wore latex gloves and separated the M&M's into red and green piles.  I bought Christmas M&Ms after the holiday when they were on clearance.  We used the red ones for Valentine's Day and plan to use the green ones for St. Patrick's Day.
