Wisconsin Dells Vacation {Part 1}

This year we headed to Chula Vista Resort to hang out and "relax". We got a 2 bedroom condo which, we have decided with two babies was not the best idea and poor James, Colleen and Sean had to deal with early morning craziness. Here is the view of the Wisconsin River from our condo.

At dinner the first night. Blake and Raegan were playing on the bench. Poor Raegan can't even see over it so Blake gave her the play by play of what was going on.

Because we were the anal parents who insisted on getting to the pool when it opened to get a spot in the shade for the babies, Raegan got the entire wave pool to herself. (Blake was napping).

I am starting to perfect the Louis' one hand picture taking method

This is what happens when we attempt to take a family picture. Blake crawls away

Blake enjoyed climbing on the lounge chairs more than the wavepool

Uncle Eric showed Blake how the cooler handles flipped around, Blake thought it was so cool

Starting a Tradition

This week has been going super slow, I compare it to the few days before Christmas when you just want Santa to come! I think the reason that this week has gone so slow is because I am looking forward to the weekend. Last year, the Malic/Kramer/Unti clan decided to take a vacation to the Wisconsin Dells. Katie and I were both pregnant and it was a great way to get some fun and relaxing time together. We have decided that we had so much fun we are going to make it a yearly tradition. This year we now have Blake and Raegan along to experience the fun (oh and Colleen is coming too!). It should be interesting to see all of the crap that is packed in the car for the few day adventure. I will make sure to post pictures and fun of the trip. Everyone cross your fingers Blake doesn't attack Raegan. 

Party Like Its 2002 {CLS 10 Year High School Reunion}

My ten year high school reunion isn't until September but through the power of Facebook, us girls were able to plan so that all of us are going to be there. Melissa and Laura are flying in from the west coast! 

I spent my four years of high school hanging out with Melissa, Katie, Katie, Lindsay and Laura pretty much everyday. Yes, we fought over dumb stuff but at the end of the day we had some really great times together. It is crazy how much can change in ten years. There are now babies (Katie has Henry and Gavin, Lindsay has Cora and me, Blake) and marriages, college, careers etc. I can't wait to see them all again. 

P.S. I completely understand I was rocking bangs in all of these pictures but I swear it was acceptable back then!!

No Power No Problem

If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you already saw this picture of the Blake Man.

We woke up this morning to some pretty crazy storms. The lights flickered on and off a few times but nothing big. Then right before we needed to leave the power went out. Thirty minutes later and still no power we attempted to drive to daycare. Daycare also had no power so I brought Blake home and we had breakfast (near the window to get some light). Luckily the power came back on and I was able to bring Blake back to daycare. Unlucky for me, I had to come home and log on to work.

Blake didn't know what to make of the storm, he kept staring out the window. He wasn't scared though. Tough little guy!

Instagram

I know that I am probably uber late to this party (and not fashionably late) but I recently discovered the fun of Instagram. It is like facebook but with just pictures. It also allows you to edit the photos and apply cool filtering etc. I am still new so I have no idea how to get all fancy with it but if anyone wants to follow me my username is jennymalic. Go ahead and follow me and then you can get even more Blake pictures!!

I also wanted to let you know that I found some new fun blogs recently that I am really digging, so go ahead and check them out. I have also posted them on Favorites section.

Family Photos

Some of you may have noticed the new blog banner. About a month ago, we went to get family pictures taken. I had gotten a Living Social deal for the photographer (Caitlin) that the Kramer's use for everything. It turned out really well and luckily Blake cooperated as best as an 8 month old can in 100 degree weather. I am still trying to decide which photo's and what size I want to order prints. In the meantime, here are some photo's to enjoy.

Swinging

Blake loves swings. He gets so excited whenever he is in one and cries when we take him out. So this past weekend when we went up to Lake Geneva we stopped at the park near Gordy's and let him enjoy the wind in the little hair he has.
