Mommy's belly - watch it grow

Mommy and daddy have been teaching me where things are, like my nose, my ears, my toes... and my belly! But what I really like to do is point to mommy and daddy's belly's. Especially mommy's because hers sticks out the most... See!

(28 weeks and counting....)


I even tried to put on her belly swimsuit, all by myself...

We just got back from a beautiful weekend up north in Door County. I spent lots of times outdoors (because the sun was actually shining), and have discovered my love for nature. There's nothing better than getting dirty, finding sticks and rocks, and getting out on Lake Michigan.














The great outdoors put me to sleep on this little boat ride - one of mommy's favorite "mommy moments" from the weekend!
I think I'd have to say my favorite part of the weekend was our "dock-time" too! I didn't even mind wearing my life jacket (to mommy/daddy's relief).


Even Super-G made it down to the dock... it was super special to have everybody there together... this was at a camp that mommy and auntie's grew up going to church camp... we rented the place out with about 25 other relatives and friends!


Cousin Drew was there too - he was chasing me around the cabin (but not in this picture... I had the advantage here :-) It's not going to be long and he's going to be walking and keeping step with me - watch out mommy and auntie!
















I hope we can do this again, and again, and again... maybe I'll even be able to take my MT cousins there sometime too!

August in Wisconsin

Sweet corn in Wisconsin is something special! This summer I learned how to shuck corn with Noni...
But don't always understand that we have to put it in the water first to cook it, sometimes I want to eat it right out of the husks. I'm getting better at the concept though.




I have also learned to color as of recently ... with a little cueing from mommy to keep the crayons out of my mouth (still haven't quite gotten that concept mastered either...)



And the most recent thing I have been able to learn is the art of grass-mowing from my daddy. He works really hard at keeping up with our lawn since it's rained quite a bit the last couple of weeks. This week I got out my very own lawn mower and learnedright alongside him - it was the bestest!




Stay tuned... there is still the second half to August to come!
