My Monkey Chair from Grandpa Jon

Mommy says I should be a model...I'm always posing for the camera! I LOVE it!!!
As you can see, my itchy rash isn't much better here.
I saw the doctor this week again and she said I have a "staph" infection on my face.
I started an antibiotic and it's already clearing up! :-)
At 8 1/2 months, I weighed in at 22 pounds and I'm 29 inches long....mommy is searching franticly for a new carseat....the weight limit on my current one is 22 pounds!

I love life....it is so fun!

Grandpa Jon and I spotted a beaver dragging a stick across the lake.

Wish we could have had a close up of him!!
He's on the far right, watch out duckies, he's heading your way.

My First Trip to the Park

It was a beautiful day...and a very special one! Grandpa Jon is out for a visit and took me, Maddi, Kaiser and Mommy to the park. We had a wonderful walk (boy were the dogs excited!) My very first ride in a swing...a bit scary at first, but I recovered quickly and enjoyed every minute. Mommy tried to get a video, but Kaiser ran off and disturbed a very nice family picnic...so she was a little occupied.

Mommy and I had fun
Grandpa Jon took me on the big swing!

My baby lamb got to swing too!

We went out on the dock at Lake Julia....

We all got excited when we saw fish jumping....wish we had brought our fishing poles!

I fell asleep on our walk home...

I was all worn out

I'm Supposed to Sleep in Here?

Since I've learned how to move around my crib...I just do NOT want to sleep!

Look at me!!!

Get Off My Blanket Kaiser!

Seriously Kaiser...I love you, but this is MY blanket!

Who Needs Expensive Toys???

I love this new discovery in my room...beats the glowworm AND the animal train...sorry Gramma Yudy!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

I took my first visit up to the Fitzgerald family cabin for the 4th of July! We stayed inside and played, watched movies, ate, pooped, and slept....it was pure bliss. Mommy and daddy got a night out to watch the Twins game on Friday. I didn't care much for the pack-n-play that night. I just wanted to snuggle with Mimi :-) Mommy, daddy and I fell asleep on Saturday before the fireworks even started....oh well...we'll see them next year and I know I'll just love them!

I just can't stop smiling when I see a camera!

Mimi, Auntie Bridget and I on the 4th...we had a great time with the Walleye fish pillow :-)

Playing with Poppy

Poppy and I had some quality play time on the 4th of July weekend!! My favorite toys were Mimi's bowls and measuring spoons! Someday I'll cook for them ;-)

You see mommy and I still haven't figured out how to straighten these videos out...sorry.

8 Months old...on the move!

Here's me the first day I really learned how to crawl. I'm still a little slow...and I had to stop to dance and wave!

My Flower Headband from Mimi

I loved it....and everyone said I looked pretty :-)
