Week 1 Paternity Leave

Scott took 2 weeks off when Matthew was born and we made the most of it.
The first week was spent mostly hanging around the house, recovering.
We did a little cleaning,

some climbing,

and a lot of protecting.
(Jackson loved holding Matthew but he was kinda rough.)

Matthew thought it was all pretty boring.

So boring that he found this to be a comfortable sleeping position.

Oh yeah, there was also a lot of yelling (from everyone).

My niece had a birthday party that week so we went out for the fun.
Matthew met some cousins.

Sadly, this kid did not stay for the party even though he was dressed to party!

We colored,

played Duck, Duck, Goose!,

and opened gifts.
Happy birthday Hailey!!!

One afternoon we went to the Children's Discovery Museum
Matthew and I went from bench to bench but Scott and Jackson tried all the activities.


Jackson got drenched.

Grey is a bad color for water. 

Fireman Jackson!

He even got to work the ambulance.

The fun wasn't just inside! They had huge blocks to play with as well.

On Saturday morning we built a truck at Home Depot.

Scott really wanted to follow the directions exactly but I had to take over eventually...

Jackson had almost no interest until he saw it was a truck with wheels.

A little R&R.

  1. I love the eagerness on Jackson's face when he is holding Matthew. That looks like a pretty cute children's museum.
