Friends, Fam, Tosh + Yo Yos

Two weekends ago we were in Milwaukee for a fun filled couple days.  We left the kids at home with Grandpa and Grandma Mackus while Kristin, Cory, Matt and I saw the Daniel Tosh show downtown.  It was hilarious and irreverent as we expected.  We had a fun double date night and Mom and Dad did great with the kids. Saturday Mom, Dad, Luke and I accompanied PJ to her dance class.  Our little ballerina was adorable with her little pink leotard on.  Luke didn't quite want to hang out in the dance place, so after a while we had to head to the park to let him blow off some steam.  

We hit BW3s after the show, yum!

He was quite the stinkers at the dance place, but completely happy at the park.  

Later that day we went to a different park with Kristin, PJ and Dad

Slide racing!  Paige won.  

Saturday night we had the best time hanging out with Andrea, Kevin and their girls Isabelle and Josie.  They are such fun friends, and the kids had an awesome time.  The little video below is a pretty good summation of our night.

Yttre sandwich!  He's not complaining...

Last weekend we hosted a brunch with my girlfriends from business school and their kids.  It is baby central with this bunch!  All of the girls that came to the brunch either were quite far along pregnant, or announced a new pregnancy.  Crazy!  Luke loved having his friends over to play, and we are thrilled for our Mommies to be.  Later I was reflecting on our journey as a group of friends together.  At first all we talked about when we got together was school, then all we talked about were our careers, and now all we talk about is babies!  It is so nice to have a great group of friends that are going through the same life stages.

Here are a few cute Lukers shots from the recent past.  He is talking a little more now, with a few more words added to his repertoire.  Difficult to understand?  Yes.  But is he trying to make new sounds?  Yes.  We'll take it!

Yo-yo-ing with Dad.  Grandad would be so happy to see his yo-yo's in use:)
