EmmaLee and Ezra came to town

We met Ezra Bowling for the first time this week. He was born 2 1/2 weeks before Jett. He was born with a clept lip and pallete and has been through 2 major surgeries so he has not been able to travel from Boston to see us. Ezra belongs to Brandon's little siter EmmaLee. They live in Boston while her husband Bob is going to dental school. Then they will move to Cali to live. We cannot wait for them to move (in 2 years) so we can be at least a little closer to them. Bob was not able to come but we enjoyed the short day and a half we got with Em and Ez.
Jett and Ezra getting catching a little shut eye together.

Brandon had so much FUN playing with the two babies together. It so funny how they are so close in age yet so different in personality. Jett is cuddley and fairly mello. Ezra does not cuddle and is always moving.

We had a family birthday party where Cory (Brandon's little bro) and Natalia announced they are preggo. We are super excited for them! We got to swim in Uncle Rick's pool. Ezra would swim across the pool and run into the wall. Until someone turned him around and he would swim to the other side until he got turned around again. His little legs never stopped kicking. Look out Makena you have some competition in the family.

Jett loves swimming and we thought he would love to go down the slide so Brandon took him...he was not so thrilled and wanted to be held the rest of the time. I was surprised that it freaked him out so much.

We love the Bowlings and wished the could have stayed a little longer. Hopefully, we will be able to visit them next year.

O how fun! Can't hardly tell from the pic that Ezra had a cleft pallette (spelling?) and how fun to see them together interacting! :) I like the new layout too.

It was incredibly fun to come see you guys. I wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully our kiddos will get to hang out soon. P.S. it's palate for future reference.

Hi Dayna!

I was going to let you know that I will be down in St. George and my mom is having a little party so people can come and meet Henry. I would love to see you, so email me your address so I can get an invite in the mail!

Hope all is well with you,

Chelsey

Madee died when the pups were only 3 days old :(
No one has tried to rub it yet but then again as Daren says I am unapproachable so no one ever will probably...lol Are you guys going to find out what this one is?
I am just uncomfortable more than anything with a belly as far as my back goes is really the issue! They have started sending me to physical therapy and they are worried my last few months are going to get rough since my innerds are already jumbled from my back... well enough whining Jett sure has gotten handsome!! Cant wait to see you all in only like 2 weeks!!
