Edinborough Park

Tonight we spent the evening at Edinborough Park in Edina.  We have never been there before- for some reason I thought Wyatt was too small.  Was I wrong!  Wyatt and I went with our friends/neighbors, Debbie and Luca.  The boys had a blast and we'll be going back very soon.  It was well worth the $6 admission fee!

Go Vikings!


Rained In!

We spent Saturday indoors due to the wonderful rain that wouldn't stop.  But it was all in good fun with a lot of laughs.  Dan and I say this all the time but we're so blessed to have Wyatt in our life- he is constantly putting smiles on our face.










Eggs...finally!

Wyatt's preferred breakfast is either Papa's pancakes (the first time he ever had pancakes was with my dad so they will forever be called as such), waffles, cereal or toast.  We've offered scrambled eggs to him on numerous occasions but he never wanted anything to do with them.  I asked him if he wanted to try an egg for breakfast and he finally agreed to it.  Now, we have one more option with a little more protein :)

Snow!

Wyatt loves the snow- it's so nice that we're able to get out and play in it now that the weather is above 20 degrees.  Unfortunately, when we get home from work and "school" there isn't a whole lot of time to enjoy the outdoors in daylight.  Wyatt LOVES to shovel and knows when it snows he might get to help daddy, "daddy shovel too" he says.  And if only we can get him to wear his mittens...

Girls Night Out!

My good friend Jenny Boisseau moved to Atlanta almost two years ago.  Her and Cole (their 1-1/2 year old son) decided to join her husband, Chad, for a business trip to Minneapolis.  It was so fun to see her last night.  Four of us got together for many great laughs and good wine at Beaujo's. 


Me, Caroline, Koren and Jenny

Wrestle Mania!

It wouldn't be a normal day in our house without Wyatt getting out the special blanket that acts as his wrestling mat and says, "Daddy wrestle."  The two of them get so silly and Wyatt just loves every minute of it.  I love my boys!




Happy Birthday, Mom/Grandma!

Today we helped my mom celebrate her birthday.  Wyatt couldn't wait to get home from lunch to help his mana (a.k.a. Grandma) blow out her candles.  Since he just had a birthday himself he couldn't stop saying Happy Birthday and wanted to blow out the candles again and again and again.  Mom, sorry that your age is revealed on the cake- you don't look a day over 30 :)

Happy New Year!

We celebrated New Years in Northfield with my family and the Smith family from Kansas stopped by for a visit.  It's always great to see Jenny and crew but we missed Hunter and Evan.  Happy New Year!
