Lake Osakis

We spent Friday through Monday in Lake Osakis with Mommy's family. We decided to stay in a cabin right on the lake instead of a hotel-ours is the 2nd from the left.
Daddy took me for a walk on the docks every morning.

I am told, and I guess this picture shows, that the sunsets were beautiful. Of course, I was snoozing away by then-so tired from all the activities!

I got a lot of wagon rides from my cousins but Aunt Liz and I decided to take a break and just chill for a little while...

Here I am with the crew (from left to right) Joey, Anna, Cindy, me, Thomas, Nathan and Eva

Me and Mommy taking a cuddle break.

We had such a good time, and it was fun to be around all my older cousins. I guess it inspired me because.....I CAN WALK! Mommy noticed I was standing up on my own a lot more since we got back and suddenly I just started taking steps. I am not a full-fledged walker yet but I am certainly getting there. Of course, Mommy can never catch me on video-we are working on that so I can show all you! So thanks to my cousins for a fun trip and inspiring me to walk!

Back from Vacation

The first part of our Minnesota trip took us to Tonka Bay, which is just outside of Minneapolis. Our friends-Chris, Kat, Fiona and Maclaren live there. Daddy grew up with Chris so they have known each other a loooong time!

Fiona is holding me and Mac is posing very nicely next to us
This used to be a giant tree in their yard but it fell so they had part of the stump carved into this fish-and Mac and I had fun climbing it
Just posing for more pics!



We left on Friday, around noon, to meet Grandma Judy and Grandpa Wayne to drive to our next Minnesota destination-Lake Osakis.......

A Little Vacation

Hi Everyone-

Just a quick note to let you know that we will be gone for a few days so I will not be updating the blog. I am taking my first trip to the great state of Minnesota! First to visit some friends, and then off to Lake Osakis to visit my Unlce Tony, Aunt Sue, and my cousins Cindy, Joey, Thomas and Eva. I have not seen all of them since Christmas so I am excited to show them everything I can do and say!

Enjoy the video-I now know how to drive my motorcycle all by myself and I love the rides! (Thanks again Don and Erin!)

Talk to you next week!

Outside Fun

I love playing outside! We had a nice day on Mother's Day-great weather so we were outside a lot. Here are a few pics and a movie. I also wanted to show you how much better I am at standing on my own and walking with only a little help. I have taken steps all by myself but I am still working on my building up my confidence to fully being walking rather than crawling.

Me and Dad hanging out...I love this motorcycle!
Me and Mom working with the hose/sprayer. We just finished watering the garden and flowers.


Watch me stand on my own!

HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY!

I want to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all the great ladies out there! I chose pics of some of my favorite Moms to share with you...

Of course, my Mommy!
and Grandma Judy....

and Grandma Mary...

and my Great-Grandma Mary

I also want to send best wishes to my Aunt Kathy, Aunt Mickey, Aunt Liz (a future Mother), Aunt Sue, Aunt Alana and all my Great-Aunts (there are too many to list everybody). I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hangin' Out

Hi Everyone- I was just hanging out the other day enjoying the weather when Mom decided to start snapping photos...
Mom calls this my model pose...I think I ned to work on my facial expressions before I get any agency calls!

Another more modest pose...

And in this one...I was just really kicking back-didn't know she was going to snap this photo too! I am sure they will bring this one out when I am older!

Hope you are all enjoying your Spring!
