Look at me...I'm like Daddy!

Here is Addy in Justin's glasses...yes this is what we do when we have nothing better to do on a Friday night. My how life changes.

We had loads of fun at Bronson and Mimi's wedding. It was very beautiful and we are all so happy for the couple. I am also excited that I have a wonderful sister-in-law. Addy also got to meet Uncle Josh, Aunt Angie, Parker and Bella for the first time. It was so much fun having everyone together again. Below are some fun photos of the weekend.

Bronson and BEAUTIFUL Amy!

We think Addy was embarrassed at her Mommy's dancing.


After all this fun and excitement I just hung out with Addy and Sean all week. I have been busy that is for sure. Addy was a little off from being on vacation but I think I have her back on track...until 4th of July weekend. Yea for 4th of July!

Sean and I were going to take Addy to lake Orno on Thursday but Adelyn was very fussy that day...instead Sean found a Woodchuck in the back yard. Yes, I said Wood Chuck! It is living under our shed...and to think for the last 4 years I just thought it was rabbits. I will take a video of that when we catch it!

Cornhole!

This last weekend Justin decided to put his wood working skills to the test and make a Cornhole game. Yes, Justin is the Cornhole Master! Others may know the game as Baggo or Bean Bag Toss. Justin found directions on how to make an official Cornhole game for himself. It was lots of fun to watch him make and we are so excited to play the game. Below are pictures of Justin's masterpieces.
Sean was also excited about the game. He was great with helping his Dad make the set. He was also very happy that he is finally out of school. I asked him how it felt to be out the 4th grade. He said it felt good! He is excited to be going into the 5th grade.

Grandpa Gary came over and saved the day when he brought us lunch. Double cheeseburgers from McDonald's. YUM! Here is Adelyn and Grandpa Gary having a heart to heart.
Adelyn enjoys sleeping in with Mom and Dad on the Weekends. If we bring her into the bed when she wakes up at 6:30 she will snooze the morning away. Here is Justin and Addy on Sunday morning. Addy even out slept her Daddy! She did not get up until almost noon.

Addy then and now

Addy 8 hours old - our little squeaker!

Addy 8 weeks old

I am trying to get Addy to smile on camera but it seems that every time I get the camera out she gets upset. I will see if I can get her smile in the morning. She still squeaks too! I will see if I can get that on tape also. Addy cannot wait to meet Aunt Angie and Uncle Josh and her cousins Parker and Bella in just a few weeks! She keeps asking me about them.

First trip to the cabin!

Well, last Wednesday Adelyn and I ventured up North. It was great, Adelyn slept from the moment we got in the car and woke up just as we got to the cabin. We had such a great time! Adelyn got to see Grandma Diane and Grandpa Dennis again. Aunt Amy was happy to see Addy also...well...until she was peed on! Hee Hee I told her it could have been way worse. She saw Uncle Bronson again too. I think she just stares and wonders why this guy looks like Daddy. It is so sweet! Great Grandma Peggy also stopped by. She was so happy to meet Addy.

I got to go to Fargo for the first time ever. I was really excited to go just because I only saw the movie and really wondered what the town was like. Well...I met some locals and well...it was Fargo. We went for Amy's dress fitting and I vowed to tell everyone in great detail what it looks like. First of all Amy is beautiful in her dress. Now as for the dress...it is a dress and it is white! Like I was going to tell you what it looked like. But really, it is stunning and I cannot wait to see it in action. We also bottled wine. It was really neat to see how the whole process is done. It really is not that hard but it is loads of fun! I was so happy to hang out with Amy and help her out with some memorable moments before her big day!

Oh! I cannot forget the BEAR!!!!! We saw a bear on the side of the road. It was really cool!

BACK ONLINE!!!

We had a very exhausting weekend. Justin and I decided to give our lawn a face lift. The wood timbers were old and needed to be replaced and there were some bushes that needed to go! Justin was able to get new rocks, a trailer, and a Bobcat for the weekend. For two days we were shoveling rocks. We only had one snag in the whole weekend, we accidentally cut our cable line digging out one of the bushes. So we have been without TV, Phone and Internet since Saturday morning. I thought I was going to loose my mind on Monday. I could not jam to my online tunes with Addy. I do have to give a special thanks to Bronson for coming down to help us out. We really appreciated his help. Below are before and after pictures.

Before /After



It was back breaking work but it was well worth it! It looks great and all of the neighbors agree that it looks great.
I did finally find my camera and as I promised I would post pictures of Grandpa Dennis and Aunt Jill and Cousin Soren's visit so here they are.
Here is Jill with Adelyn

What have we been up to?

Grandma came from Washington came to visit again! She said Adelyn had grown so much! It was weekend of first times. Adelyn met her Grandpa Dennis, Aunt Jill and Cousin Soren this weekend. She went to her first Dr. appointment for illness, she has pink eye. She went for her first walk in her stroller to Perkins.






I will post pictures of Grandpa Dennis and Aunt Jill when I find my camera again...sleep deprivation and cleaning sometimes works against me...oops!



Here are some other pictures I got off of my moms camera...










Addy does not like taking baths just yet...










Here is a picture of her curly hair after her bath
















Here is Addy all pretty in pink with mommy!






When I downloaded pictures from my mom's camera she had this picture. It is of my dog Loki and my friend Laurens son Kaleb. It was so cute I had to post it.
