Welcome to an old friend and a new one

What an exciting weekend! Our wonderful friends, the Jaskowiak's (Liz, Derek, baby Charles, and puppies Bella & Riley) came up for the weekend to stay with us and go to the Navy vs Air Force football game. Liz and Derek are our dear friends from our first duty station in Monterey and we've been lucky enough to be stationed with them a few more times too....and we always hope for more! Liz and Derek are also Jack's Godparents. We love having them up and it was such a fun weekend! Last time they were up (in July) Jack and Charles were still not too interactive - Charles is about 6 weeks older than Jack - but this time they absolutely loved playing and talking to each other. On Saturday we went to the football game and did some tailgating before and after the game. I think the boys enjoyed the game - despite being a little tired from a missed nap and some super loud noises!
As you can see, the boys really enjoyed playing with each other. We had every single toy out, all over the floor!

Charles is a little more advanced than Jack, and is able to Army crawl on his tummy....Jack's just chilling, eating the remote.


Very important discussion about the packaging that the new toy came in.

Today we welcomed a new friend into the group. Also stationed with us in Monterey was Matt's thesis partner, Trevor. He and his beautiful wife, Kelly, welcomed their new daughter, Hayden Grace Baumgartner, into the world a few weeks early on Friday! The eight of us were planning to have brunch this morning, but instead of brunch we got to have a get together in the hospital with NINE of us!!! We are so excited that Hayden is here - she is absolutely gorgeous, just like her Mommy, and SO tiny! She was born at 6lbs 6oz. The picture of her next to Jack is just too much!
