Mr. Universe

finding good comedy, these days, is really hard.

(and by good, i mean family friendly, won't-make-you-blush or feel like

you need a shower afterwards.)

that's why i've kind of fallen in love with mr. jim gaffigan.

he makes family friendly, ordinary topics like fast food, large families

and even hot pockets wildly entertaining and hilarious.

you can watch two of his stand up specials on netflix.

"mr. universe" just became available to stream this week and it's hysterical.

(disclaimer: he does use a few mild swear words and reference pornography a couple of times, but

not in a way that we found overtly distasteful. but because of those things i probably

wouldn't recommend for really young children.)

2 Months Old

Silas turned two months old yesterday!

(Wow that was a fast two months!)

He is 14 lb 10 oz, and about 25" long!

These days, he's all about smiling at his adoring family members

(especially that fascinating sister of his)

and practicing holding up his very heavy head.

He's eating like a champ (obviously) and was a great little

traveler over Memorial Day weekend, only making

us stop once on the 7 hour drive so he could eat! 

And not to brag too much, but he's been sleeping through the night

for a couple of weeks now!

Our big, easy going, handsome boy...

We love him so much!

picnic

we were blessed with perfect weather last weekend, and decided to pack a little picnic dinner to take to antietam battlefield in MD. it was an awesome evening.

we hope there are more fun picnics in store this summer!
