Having Fun!

Here are some snapshots of Easton over the last couple weeks.  He's growing fast and starting to smile and talk so much more!

He woke up after sleeping from 6:15 PM- 2:45 AM and then again from 4:00 am- 7:30AM!!! Mommy was super excited, he was streching big from his "long winters nap" :) I will note he got adjusted by Aunt Cori that day, and I think that had something to do with it ;)

Blowing bubbles, his new thing.

Uncle James says I look like Charlie Brown in this outfit ;)

Camo for Daddy

Monday mornings with Daddy, we love them!

He always has to get one hand out of his swaddle ;)

Rock Rapids Parade of Lights

The one year I don't have to participate because I'm on maternity leave, Mark does!  But his float was all ready to go from the Sioux Falls Parade of Lights, so it wasn't too much work.  The boys were excited to ride with us, it was just too cold for Easton. He slept in the truck with Grandma :)

Cameron and Preston enjoying the lights and the ride!

Dad helped Mark out, I think he's becoming a regular in the RR parades.  He seems to be in the summer or the winter ones for HickoryTech (he's still representing us with his hat) quite often, and now he's working for Big Sioux Powersports!

Looking good babe!

Love these boys!

Happy Thanksgiving

We were excited to host Thanksgiving this year, and it was filled with first!  It was Easton's first Thanksgiving and our first time hosting.  I was a little nervous with new baby and cooking such a big meal, but it went great.  Mark was in charge of the turkey and he did an awesome job! Everyone contributed to the meal and we all enjoyed it! I don't think anyone went hungry.  We enjoyed Mark's family for dinner, my parents and brother.  Caleb had to work Black Friday at Scheels in Iowa City, so he had to get back on the road right after lunch.  There was no sense in Mom & Dad making a big dinner for the 3 of them, when we had plenty.  Here are some pictures from our wonderful holiday :)

I'm glad he was in charge of the turkey, it looked gross to me! Of course until it was cooked ;)

Thankful for him!

I think this was Dad's "I think he just had a blow out" face!

Caleb hadn't met Easton until this trip, I think Easton is admiring him ;)

Happy Holidays from the Radtkes!

Easton's Baptism

Easton's baptism went great!  We were lucky to have all of his immediate family here to help him celebrate this special sacrament. 

He was sleeping all during mass so after we had to get him changed and fed!

He didn't seem to mind the water, but he does like his baths!

6 weeks old

I can't believe our baby is already 6 weeks old!  He is growing everyday.  I've already started a bin of clothes that don't fit.  I have mixed emotions about him growing out of them, but it's so fun to watch him grow and enjoy new things.  He enjoys his play gym, music, and most of all our voices.  It's so fun to talk to him and see him smile back at you :) Melts my heart.
We've had a great week of weather so we've gotten to walk everyday.  He and I both enjoy the fresh air.  Today it's going to be the last warm one for a while, so we'll be sure to savor the moment! 

Easton's BFF he just doesn't know it yet.....
