Theo @ 6 Months

 Little Theo is becoming more mobile.

He rolls from front to back and back to front. He can spin around while on his stomach and grabs everything when in reach.

He gets mad when we eat together and he can't join.


He's tried lots of new foods already. Avocado, banana, oatmeal, watermelon, peach, cucumber, onion.


He loves to suck on his toes.

When going to bed he likes to snuggle with a blanket.


He's working on sitting on his own. He sits in a shopping cart and highchair fine.


He loves to grunt and "talk" loudly, chew on Meadow's toys, grab glasses off people's faces and loves trying new foods.


When people talk to him he smiles and then looks away shyly.


He's realized there are people he knows and people he doesn't. When strangers hold him he gets scared.



He likes to giggle with Meadow.


He still hates car rides or wearing a life jacket.


He is usually only upset if he's hungry or wants to be held. He will stop crying when you pick him up.


He no longer sleeps through the night and will wake up 1-2 times.

What she said and he's a cutie. I just love cuddling with this little guy.

A Texas-Louisiana-Arkansas Hipcamp Road Trip: Back to Arkansas and a Night in Iowa

I hadn't really planned on driving through Mississippi, so I found a route that took us back through Lousiana and into Arkansas. Before we made it to the Land of the Downriver People we stopped in Monroe for some soul food.

A Smoky Weekend at the Cottage and a Stop at Ladysmith's Northland Mardi Gras

This summer we decided to go to the cottage any weekend we had nothing else going on. This week, due to fires in the Boundary Waters and Canada, the air quality was pretty terrible. We debated if we should still go, but it looked like it would clear up by Saturday. So we took the chance. And by terrible, we mean the worst air quality we'd ever seen. Along the way we decided to stop at John and Heidi's Happy Daze . We've passed this place probably 100 times. It was about time to stop by. I ordered the prime rib sandwich special.  Yummy. The sandwich that is. Everybody's food was really good, but Brooke's was the star of the show.  I want to get back here asap. Now if only this pesky smoke would go away.

A Blasé Weekend in Late July

We have a busy August. This Friday looked like the last Friday before school starts where we are around. I suggested getting breakfast at Al's Breakfast. I also wanted to go here before the college kids weren't back in school yet. I tried getting Theo to order the pancakes, but he got the waffles. I think everyone was happy with their breakfast. Still the best breakfast in Minneapolis. Theo woke up early this morning and was willing to go on a walk with me. Based on the photo above, I think you woke him up. He scored some good books at a little library. Later, I took the kids swimming at Weber Park. It was cloudy and dark at home and up in North Minneapolis it was clear and sunny. I finally convinced Theo to tie back his hair when he goes swimming so his hair isn't in his face. Later Brooke and I went and picked up a hoosier cabinet for our kitchen landing. This custom shelf the old owners made would have to find a new home in the basement. This was nice enough but the micr...
