Feels Like Summer!

Hi Everyone! Well it has been just beautiful in St. Paul, MN the past few days. We've spent a lot of time outside exploring the neighborhood and getting the yard ready for the season. Here's a picture of me outside the front of my house (my daddy was making me laugh!)This weekend, Daddy's family came over for dinner on Saturday so we could celebrate his 30th birthday (which, officially is next Saturday, May 5th). It was fun to see my cousin Julia again and play with her in the backyard!
Here's a picture of Daddy blowing out the candles on his birthday cake. There sure are a lot of candles, aren't there!?!? Happy Birthday Daddy!!

New Skills

Well it's official...I know how to sit up all by myself! Check out my new moves...

Now that I can sit up I am able to play with my parents a lot more easily than I could before...I'm really having a good time! I think I'm soooo cute and cool and I am smiling and laughing all the time.

Here's a picture of me with my Mommy's cousin Todd. He and his wife Kristin came to visit me last weekend all the way from Appleton, Wisconsin. I had such a fun time taking a long walk around my neighborhood with them and going to the Como Zoo & Conservatory (in the rain)!

Easter Fun!

I just got back from a fun-filled weekend! I spent a few days down in Iowa visiting with my Mommy's family for Easter. I was a pretty good car rider, but I made my Mommy & Daddy stop 3 times during a 4 1/2 hour trip (which turned into a 5 1/2 hour trip!) But I couldn't help it - I was hungry and needed to stretch my legs!

On Saturday the Chicago Cubs were playing and Grandpa & I snuggled in to watch a few innings of our first game together. We both had our Cubs gear on - aren't we cute?!?

Here is a picture of my family before we went to church on Easter Sunday. We clean up pretty nice, don't we?? We took this picture outside, but don't be fooled...it was COLD in Iowa this weekend!

The Easter Bunny brought me my very first basket! I got three fun toys and some chocolate (which Mommy and Daddy ate before I had a chance.)

Here is a picture of me with an Easter hang over. It was a fun weekend...but I'm pooped!

Fun Week!

Last week was such a fun week!
My Aunt Beth and her dog Tyler came to visit me during their spring break. The first few days that they were here we had beautiful weather and we took lots of walks around the neighborhood (it was 81 degrees on Monday!). But then the rain rolled in and stuck around for a few days, so we had to spend more time at home and at the mall.

Crazy Hat Day...
Then, my Daddy broke out my fun hats for crazy hat day!! My Grandpa O's friend Dennis gave me this cool John Deere hat. It's a little big for me right now, but I still like wearing it.



This is my awesome Cubs hat. My good friend Caden from Chicago gave it to me. I'm breaking it in for opening day! My Grandpa and my Dad promised me that I could go to a Cubs game this year...I can't wait!! GO CUBS!
