Update

We have been busy as usual. Eric and Matt are both in full swing with football. Matt's first game is Friday, August 24 against Marion Catholic and Eric's first game is August 25 against Steger. It is going to be an exciting season. Matt starts school on Monday and Eric starts on Tuesday. I cant believe how fast the summer went by. We never even made it to the zoo!!!

John turned nine months August 9th. He weighs 23 lbs 4 ounces and is 30 inches long. He is wearing 12-18 month clothes already. He has been crawling for weeks and is now standing for a couple of seconds without holding on. He plays with the remote, the phone, the powder, the holder for the wipes, our shoes and the kitchen chairs. Everything he shouldn't be playing with!! He chases Eric and then Eric chases him. He climbed the stairs with Matt's supervision of course. Needless to say, we have the gates up. He is starting to try different foods and holds his juice cup all by himself.

Matt and I decided to invest in a DVR. Can I just say how totally awesome it is!!!??!??!
LOVE IT!! Even though I tape re-runs of Beverly Hills 90210........

Last week Eric did a mile run down at Bears training camp in Bourbonnais. It was hot, but he did great. There were probably 75 kids, ages 6-14 and Eric came in around 15th. He got a T-shirt and a medal. He is already saying he wants to do it again next year.

This past Sunday Eric and I went to the Sox game with Joel. We had a great time!! The seats were good (a little hot), the food was good, the drinks were good, but they lost. But, as always, well worth it.

John is 9 months


John is 9 months old!!

Miller Park




We drove to Milwaukee to see the Brewers play the Phillies. What a great day! We had seats right behind home plate. This was Eric's birthday present from me and Matt.
