Little Cute Audrey!

Mom and Dad got to visit my little cousin Audrey- only 2 weeks old! She is soooo cute!

Audrey was awake for most of the visit- busy hiccuping, sneezing, and making cute little baby sounds.

Probably the last profile pic with Mom and Aunt Jill. Mom is due in about 5 weeks! I can't believe I am going to have a little brother soon!

Bowling Competition

After the petting zoo, Mom and Dad, Lindsay, Jim and Shelly all went to Ham Lake Lanes while I napped back at Grandma's and Grandpa's house. They hadn't been there since they were in high school. Mom told me it was lots of fun to bowl again, and the little baby didn't hinder her ability to play, but her lack of practice did! She didn't even make it over 100 the first game, but at least redeemed herself with a 136 on the second game. Dad and Uncle Jim did great with scores close to 200 points! Although, in this picture, Mom caught Dad looking defeated after not getting a strike.

Oh yeah! Uncle Jim is in the House!

Welcome Home Uncle Jim!

This past weekend we went to visit Uncle Jim and his girlfriend, Lindsay, who traveled from San Diego to visit. We went to my Grandma's grocery store for their annual fall festival, where I enjoyed a yummy hot dog and the petting zoo!

A little hesitant at first, I quickly learned how to feed the animals and had a ton of fun!

Me with my favorite Uncle from CA!

My new best friend Lindsay. I like her a lot Uncle Jimmy, so keep bringing her back for visits!

These friendly goats really liked dandelions and grass. I think they liked little toddler fingers too, but I was pretty quick to pull them away when they got nibbled.

This guy liked me a lot. We became good friends based on a mutual agreement that I was to hurry and pick grass and flowers for him as fast as he could eat them.

Cool shades Dad loaned to me. It was very sunny, but only in the 50s.

Giving Grandpa high tens!

Hanging Around the House

Now I am pretty good at climbing up onto the bow window. Unfortunately, Dad is replacing this window, and the rules might change with a brand new window in place. I like being up here though- I can see what's going on in the neighborhood.

Just enjoying my morning milk up here.

Daddy is chasing me around the living room here.

Another rest on the ottoman with my little baby doll. I know how to give her kisses and can point to her nose, eyes and head.

Apples Galore!

I have been eating lots of apples from our apple tree in our backyard. They are yummy and not to big- perfect for me!

Helping Mom clean up the yard. And by helping, I mean insisting on wheel barrel rides and hindering any potential clean up for Mom to do.

Heading off with my favorite outside toy, my window squeegee.

Playground at the Zoo

We went to the playground just outside the zoo the other day. I had lots of fun playing, and am a little sad that I only have a handful more play days outside before the snow comes and it gets too cold. It was super neat when Daddy came to visit me in his work dump truck. He honked the horn and it made me jump!

My shoveling skills are getting much better. I know now to put the sand in the bucket and then dump it out.

The bear at the zoo was pacing a lot like he wanted to eat me but couldn't figure out how to get to me. He was kinda scary!

Perfect Fall Day

We took a beautiful hike yesterday afternoon just a mile from our house. We went up the Lake Superior Hiking trail to the top of Spirit Mountain. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, and the trees were glowing yellow and red! Thanks Dad, for hauling me all the way to the top!

Almost there!

At the top on a ski lift platform. What a view!
