What a Week...

We've had another full week of working, playing, eating, pooping (OMG, like you wouldn't believe - I had to a run a bath one night to get it all off...Wait, let me clarify - the bath was for Ava, not us!) and cleaning out closets! I bought another big bin for all of Ava's clothes, and I managed to squash all of her 0-6 month outfits in there. I'm pretty sure the top might blow off at some point! We need to get up into our attic so we can start storing things up there. We're running out of room!

I love this one...she might be on to the "camera" thing. This look is classic, like, "Again with the camera, Mommy? Fine, I'll smile, but only to humor you."



Makin' a break for the bathroom..



I knew that smile was in there!



Daddy, Darla, and the caterpillar taking a snooze...where's the baby???



Scott was very impressed that they were laying down the same way, without posing. He made me take this picture. :)


And some beautiful flowers my hubby bought me - just what I need to remind me spring is right around the corner!


Ava and I are off to The Children's Museum in St Paul today. We're going with Tiff and Isabel - should be fun to see how the girls react to all of the fun toys they have there!

Exploring Local Places

By
Last Sunday was the perfect day to explore an area that neither Arya nor I had been to before. We headed east to walk around the Vermillion Falls/River and Greenway area. The path was nicely paved, with lots of overhead shade from trees; there were so many families out on bikes and walking, and we had a nice view of the Vermillion River. Arya got some great pics, and I enjoyed spending time outdoors with my sweet girl. This weekend, G and I will be heading out to explore a creek area in a few towns just south of us. And I've already got an idea for another creek I want to walk by next month (it's a bit further away, and I'd rather put that aside until Arya is off at college) The tree leans to find the sun On the way home, we stopped at the DQ in another town (we have a love/hate relationship with the DQ in our town, so I wanted to avoid it.) The warm weather felt great, and we enjoyed some sweet treats while watching the world drive by. We're counting down the days unti...

What a Week

By
The weather has been unseasonably warm this fall, so we've been able to extend our outdoor projects just a bit.  This past week Scott's been working in the garden, cleaning everything out, and repairing the back wall of our garage.  Ava was such a good little helper, scooping up dirt, but still trying to keep her hands clean while doing it! I swear, a box is all she needs to make her happy. Princess Darla. Princess Darla has had enough.  I personally like how she and Ava have the same expressions in this picture. Apparently Spanky was bored - check out that yawn in the background! We went down to Grand Meadow this weekend, and as always, it was so fun to see Ava and Isabel play together.  They actually had several little conversations with each other - and they were so polite while doing so!  We even had them share a room last night...boy, that was a challenge.  I think they finally fell asleep around 10:00pm.  And of course, Ava wa...

Preparing for Vacation

By
We had a low key week, which is rare in this house. Oh sure, there were fun field trips at Summer Power, a visit to the splash pad on a hot day, and a few crazy, rain storms, but it was an easy week. Well, there was that one time when we were out for dinner with G (Ava was with Grandma Karen and Grandpa Doug for an overnight stay and a trip to the Dakota County Fair - fun!) and G decided to hide behind my chair and puke all over me and the floor (at the restaurant.) Ugh. The good news is that he was just too full of chocolate milk...no illness! A quiet week, once in a while, is an okay thing! We're starting to prep for our vacation to the Wisconsin Dells...we don't take too many family vacations, so this is a big event for us. (Funny, I took a break from writing this post as Scott just asked me about planning a trip to Disney...we were debating the differences between going to California vs. Florida...pros and cons to each!) Yesterday, I showed G a video from one of the wat...
