Cabin Fever!

My Mom finally had a couple days off from work so we escaped to the cabin Wednesday through Sunday!

Unfortunately we were not the only ones spending the week at the cabin-the Lake Flies had taken over! It was a total infestation -we couldn't even be outside!

We visited our friends house-away from flies-that have so many cool animals it was like going to a petting zoo! 3 horses, a pig named Daisy, a dog named Jake and tractors!

Watching Daddy fish

Visiting Great Grandma Sally!

All the grand kids love to ride Grandma's walker

Grandma Debbie and Grandpa Rob joined us on Friday!

We went over to Glenwood to play in the park! All the flies had left Glenwood a couple days ago and flew over to our side of the lake!

We'll have to come back to this park when we're at Peters' Resort in a couple of weeks!

Playing Pool with Daddy

Here comes the cue ball!

I am 23 Months Old!

I am 23 months today! I am repeating everything and have been putting words together to make mini sentences! In the car I told my Mom, "Mommy Drive Car!" She was amazed and instantly called Daddy to brag how smart I am! I can point and say my body parts, I am working on numbers and colors. I like to say everything is "Purple-Green" and I like to say that there is "Two" of just about everything! My latest sentence has been to say "A car!" and then point to another car and say "A nodder Car!" It makes my parents laugh-which is a nodder of my favorite things to do! I have become the comedian in the family and I love to be silly! I am still sleeping in my crib. I prefer to sit at the table rather than a high chair. And if you tell me to go this way I am going THAT way! (It drives my Mom crazy! He-He!)

My New Hat!

Check out the cute hat my Uncle Damon gave me for no reason what so ever! (Except that I'm so adorable!)

Mikko Turns 2!

Mikko loves trains so he had his 2nd birthday at a train museum in St Paul called The Jackson Street Roundhouse. It was such a cool place to hang out!

The whole party got a private train ride-the birthday boy got to ride up front in the engine car!

My good looking family!

Playing with Ga Ga!

This was my favorite train to play on! It had wheels you could spin and steps to climb on! Happy Birthday Cousin! We had a blast celebrating with you!

My Barbie House

Our next door neighbors passed down this awesome Barbie house for me to play in! Brianna is 10 years old and doesn't play with it anymore!
Hello-welcome to Leah's!

Mommy in! Mommy in!

The fake phone has 9-1-1 dialed on it (which my Mom thinks is so cool) but I wonder what happened to Barbie that 9-1-1 is the last number she called??

Snacks in my new house!

Update on our birds...

Sad to report the birds are no longer here! We had 3 eggs as of Monday and on Tuesday morning there was only 1! Birds usually abandon their nests if predators have disrupted it. We are very sad because we were looking forward to watching the babies hatch and grow up! Although we did manage to learn a lot about Robins in the couple weeks they were staying outside the window!

Our New Neighbors!

We are so excited that a family of robins have built a house right outside our window! We watched them build the nest last weekend and this weekend there are 2 eggs!

Daddy has aimed our web cam out the window so we can see what is going on without disrupting the nest! Mom gets very anxious when the robins leave the eggs and don't come back...which is happening often! We've read it can take 10-14 days until the babies hatch-we'll post pictures when they come!
