updates

Man, I have really missed blogging in the last few weeks! Between busy work, traveling, and playing with Little Miss, I can't believe how little time I've had!  Here are some updates to get you all up to speed.

1.  For Mother's Day, Mike tilled up our front yard so we can put in a new front path and have a front yard vegetable garden. I'll post more pictures as the project progresses!


2. Rose has been so interested in shoes recently. The other day she spent about 15 minutes trying to wear her Daddy's birkenstock. Her feet have also gone through a HUGE growth spurt recently. She was happily wearing the pictured shoes at the beginning of last week, but by Friday afternoon they were pinching her toes and she would scream whenever whe'd bring come close to her. I had no idea that feet could grow so much basically overnight.


3.  A couple weekends ago we took a trip up to Cabela's so she could see all the fish. She loved it! She is started to wave to everything interesting she sees, especially airplanes that fly over head.



4. Since I'm no longer taking weekly photos, I decided to take monthly photos instead. Here is Rose at 13 months!



5. We've been getting so much rain recently that it's been hard to find places for Rose to play. (She gets so bored of our little house!) After much deliberation, we finally decided to bring her to a McDonald's play area, only to find out that it's WAY too big for our little girl. Whew - good thing we don't have to go back to that place again for several more years!


6. Last weekend (Memorial Day) we went up to Hayward. I have more pictures on my camera (which I'll post at some point), but here is one from the Lumberjack Show that we went to. It was awesome! I love lumberjack shows! I highly recommend going if you ever get a chance. (Rose, however, was indifferent and Mike had to leave to let her nap instead. Sorry, Mike!)


7. We also discovered last weekend that my daughter LOVES cheese curds. Atta girl!


8. Rose has also been getting more and more opinionated recently. She definitely knows what she wants and when she wants it! (It reminds me of this blog: ReasonsMySonIsCrying.) Here she was crying because I very nicely asked her to stop biting my shoulder.


9. That same day that we went up to Cabela's, we came back to have lunch at Anchor Fish and Chips. As we were sitting out on the patio finishing our meal, a man came up and asked if we wanted his tickets to the Twins game that afternoon. Heck, yeah! Not only were they amazing seats (last row of the main floor off of 3rd base), but the seats on either side of us were empty so Rose could spread out a little bit. Mostly she enjoyed sitting on the floor, eating ice cream, and walking around the concourse. She did a great job all through the 7th inning! But when the rain delay hit, we figured we should wrap it up and not press our luck through her usual dinner hour. It was so much fun to be able to try out a baseball game with Rose for free!


Okay, that's all I've got for now! I'll try to upload my camera pictures soon and post another blog update in the not-too-distant future. Happy May, everyone!
