We don't own a dog because (1) we can't afford one and (2) I have 2 boys in diapers, I don't need to clean up any more poop. So, my mom found this dog Lucky that responds to voice commands. It has like 20 different tricks it does for you and is so fun to play with. Jake absolutely LOVES dogs and this is as close as it gets in our house! Enjoy!
So, I tried to upload these pictures in order, but once they downloaded, they got all mixed up. So, here's a random update on these events in San Diego! We went 2 days before Jeff and Laura's wedding and got to go to Sea World and stay in a really nice resort that was right on the beach and had ponds with lots of ducks to play with. The night before the wedding we went out to dinner at Joe's Crab Shack and had the WHOLE family there! It was very loud, crazy, and fun!
This is Eric entertaining Connor with his phone during dinner. I love that Connor has fun uncles that are always willing to play with him....and give me a break for a while! 
For some reason, Mike and I don't take many pictures together (probably because I'm always focusing on taking pics of my boys!), but Jessica was nice enough to snap this one of us together.
Garrett was OUT all during dinner. They ended up just laying him on the table the rest of the night and he slept the whole time! Lucky guy!
I love this picture of my little Jakie boy!
Here's Jake and Drew (Brian and Angies youngest) at Sea World. Can you tell their related? I love that they're both doing the same pose! I wish they lived closer (they're in Texas) and we could play with them more! Both our boys are super close in age to their 2 youngest.
This is Connor and Addie sharing Cheetos while we waited for some of our gang to get off a ride at Sea World. I love watching these 2 play together-they're only 2 weeks apart!
Connor getting every last lick of that cheeto! :-)
This was at the end of the day at Sea World-can you tell?
The boys LOVED all the fish and animals-I love going to these kind of places just to see their reaction to everything!
Connor was so excited because he got to see Nemo, Marlin, and Dory!
Watching Shamu seriously gave me chills. We sat way up on the stands so we didn't get soaked and he still looked huge! We all thoroughly enjoyed the show.....well, the boys enjoyed most of it-we couldn't keep their attention on it long enough
We sat with Brian and Angie and their kids (minus Garrett who sat below with the rest of the gang and got soaked!)
I love this picture of Connor watching the fish, he would have spent all day just watching them all!
Mike and Connor petting the sting rays-actually I don't think Connor ever did, the second they would get close enough he'd get scared and pull away
These were the ducks at our resort that Connor had a BLAST chasing. There were ducks everywhere you looked!
Here's my little Jakie boys, smiling once again! Don't you just want to squeeze those cheeks!
