| Cousin Penelope Jean Malpass was born on April 30. She was 6lbs, 9oz and 19.5in long. We were so excited to travel up to Michigan after the wedding in Illinois and meet her. Sweet, sweet Penelope just 2.5 weeks old. |

| Jameson was a good little companion, practicing for what is to come :) |
 |
| An evening out in Boyne City, MI - such a cute and pretty town along the shores of Lake Charlevoix. The kids did great at dinner, well Rob and I would say so. At the end of dinner, we commented on how well behaved Jameson was with making only 2-3 squawking noises. Natalie and Matthew (almost in unison) said it was "more like 75". Either we have very different definitions of what a "squawk" is or Rob and I are really good at tuning out 96% of what Jameson does! |
 |
| A nice evening stroll along the shore in between dinner and ice cream :) |
 |
| Exploring the rocky shore with dad. |
 |
| What a fun backyard Uncle Matthew and Aunt Natalie have!!! |
 |
| They finally figured out how to play fetch and what a perfect place for it to come together - Jameson got a kick out of throwing the tennis ball into the lake and watching Hans pounce through the water to get it (Rob got a great video clip of it which we'll post soon). When we first arrived to Natalie and Matthew's, the tennis ball inside the house immediately caught Jameson's attention, only Jameson wasn't interested in fetch. Instead, he attempted to use it as a basketball and their antler chandelier as the hoop...It was hysterical! |
 |
| Always the little things. |
 |
| 20 Weeks! And with it comes more fun kicks which Rob can now feel, visible movement and some less fun swelling (especially the feet and ankles). |
 |
| Heading back up to the house. |
 |
| Jameson loves taking the stairs/doing steps. He can crawl and slide up and down the stairs very easily at home, but he loves moving up and down them like "big" people. There are a couple of ledges at the park that he can step up and down from on his own without assistance of any kind, but not stairs yet. |
 |
| Two very tired cousins. |
 |
| Aunt Michelle and sweet little Penelope :) |
