Theo @ 6 Years

By

 

 

 


 


 
Oh Theo, who isn't afraid to show his emotions. 

Like me, he's a bit of a rollercoaster.

He still loves his numbers and can do some of Meadow's math problems. 

Well beyond his years in math. Will he be an engineer someday?

It's fun to see him learning to read this year. 

It's a challenge at times, but he's getting better and better. Once he starts reading in Nintendo games, there will be no stopping him.

 
He still loves video games, playing with Meadow, building structures with his Magnatiles (actually Picasso Tiles) and nimming his blankie. 

Brooke hates that he loves video games, but the two of us love to bond over Zelda. This year we played a lot of Tears of the Kingdom on the Switch.

Theo has opened up a lot this last year, talking to new people and even asking kids at school if they want to be his friend. 

Not quite as shy as his big sister. Hooray.

Mexico 2020 - Guanajuato

By
While planning our Mexico trip Scott discovered a city "nearby" that he said looked cool. He originally told me it was like an hour away.  I think I said a few hours away, but maybe. Except when we got our bus tickets it was actually 6 hours.  Sometimes you need to take a journey for a good adventure. Or something. We picked up this model bus for Theo at the bus station. Also he's claimed the Frida backpack.

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

By
Day 1  Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation. What, my workcations are always classics? I suppose a second real vacation this year wouldn't hurt. We definitely have more time than normal. As long as we took Covid-19  precautions and avoided people. We finally settled on a time to go. Blake joined us so we borrowed our dad's van so we could ride together. Scott had just driven from Michigan the day before. Blake had met my parents in Wisconsin to get the van and then drove from Duluth to pick us up. I offered to drive since I literally only drive twice a month.  I was still pretty tired from a long drive home. Since we were near Fergus Falls we had to stop by the abandoned state ho...

Duluth December Weekend: Boubville Ain't Bentleyville, But Why Not Go to Both

By
  This year we decided to check out Daniel's avant garde Christmas light display: Boubville .  We've seen the set up but never in action. Get a crowd and it takes on a totally different vibe. Plus I don't think we've ever seen all the lights and displays on at the same time. There was even a ball pit with hidden prizes. A few of the other kids activities for the first night were canceled due to frigid temps. The winter beach was magical. A great use of the boob lights.  My favorite display was the interactive light display. Meadow even donated some art. The Ghosts of Dinners past was super rad. Like a manger scene where the people disappeared. Loved the burn barrels to stay warm. They were very necessary on this night.  Hey I recognize that doll with the pink tights.  This was one of the displays we'd seen in the past. In Blake and Daniel's garage some local teenage bands were rocking out. Not a bad first night of Boubville.  While Brooke worked at the Supe...
