More Birthday Photos

Thanks to Andrea for the awesome baseball cake! It was amazing! Check out Lauren in the bumbo that we borrowed from our friend Ann! She loves sitting in it - I think she feels like she's part of the action!

Happy 3rd Birthday Noah!!!

Noah turned 3 on July 10th. I can't believe how fast time has gone! He's growing up to be an energetic but fun little boy! We gave him his first bike - I've attached a video of him seeing it for the first time. Unfortunately my camera stopped at the end, but if you watch close you'll see him freeze and his mouth drop open. It was the exact reaction that Matt and I were hoping for! He hopped right on the bike and took off down the street! This little guy doesn't have many fears! Happy birthday sweets! We love you lots!

Mommy and Lauren

I'm usually the one taking the photos, but found this one that Matt caught in the past month. Lauren is getting so big! We're getting together with my college friends at the beginning of August and will be attending a Twins game, so I had to see if Lauren's Twins onsie fit her - looks like it was a good fit when the picture was taken, so I'm hoping it still fits when we go! Hard to belive we've already crossed the 6 month mark. She's working on cutting teeth, so we've had a couple rough nights, but we'll get through it!

We celebrated Noah's birthday a week early with my family since Heather was home. He said he wanted a pool cake so this is what I came up with. He liked it, so thats all that mattered to me!

This is me, Heather and Lauren enjoying some morning sun on my parents deck. It was so good to see you again Heather!

Weekend in the cities

The top picture is of all of us - bottom picture is of Grandpa Kerry and Justin holding Noah at the All State football game. Congrats Justin!

Summer Fun!

Wow - I can't believe its already July - proof that time flies when you're having fun. We've had a busy couple of weeks.

Two weekends ago we were up in the cities for a friends wedding, and then Matt and Noah went to St. Cloud to watch Justin play in the All State football game. It was a great weekend, although we were tired when we got home.

This past weekend was the 4th of July, and Heather came home from Denver to help us celebrate! It was so good to see her again. I miss her a lot, so our time together is precious! Hopefully I'll get out to see her before too long. The weekend was great - I took Thursday and Friday off, so had extra time to hang out. Matt took me golfing Thursday morning for my first actual round. We had a good time! Friday was pretty relaxed, and then we went to the cabin for supper. We spent Saturday afteroon on the boat with my family - I loved it! That night we had a picnic at my parents and then a fire at our house. Sunday was a really relaxing day - we were all beat and took about a 2 hour nap, so that was great! Unfortunately when Monday rolled around Lauren came down with a double ear infection. She seems to be getting better, but we can't get her fever under control yet.

We're looking forward to Friday - its Noah's 3rd birthday! Matt and I took the day off to help him celebrate. We got him a bike, so I can't wait to see his reaction when he sees it!

I've posted a few pictures from the past couple weeks.
