A Weekend with the Fam

This weekend Travis, Sarah, Mom, Dad and Aaron came to St Paul for a visit. We had a great time shopping, eating and just spending some time together. It was a fun weekend but went by way too fast! Finley sure enjoyed her time with everyone and so did Cody and I!

Finley and Aunt Sarah.
On Saturday night we went to Fogo de Chao (Finley stayed with Aunt Lila and her cousin Taylor). For those of you who have never heard of Fogo, it's an all you can eat Brazilian steak house with 15 different meats and an unbelievable salad bar. You have a card with a red side and a green side. When you want meat you put the card to green and these men swarm you with different kinds of meats on skewers and slice off meat onto your plate until you turn your card to red. It was so good and by the end of the night we all swore of meat for good! This was a pic of us pre-Fogo.

This is Cody after eating about 20 lbs of meat!

And the rest of us after dinner.

Uncle Travis spending some quality time with Finley before flying home this morning.



Eating Sunday breakfast with grandma and Grandpa.
On Friday night we a bunch of family over for pizza and to spend some time with our visitors. As you can see we were all glued to the Wild game!

Finley enjoyed waking everyone one up nice and early!

If you look close you can see that Finley is wearing her latest gift from Grandpa Rod. That's right it's Harley Davidson PJ's!!!





We finally bought Fin a highchair and I'm kind of thinking we should have done it sooner! She loves sitting and playing with the toy that attaches to the tray and it makes feeding her so much easier. Oh well, better late than never! She also tried her first teething cookie and loved it!

Enjoying her bath time.

Girls Weekend!

This weekend Finley and I went to Detroit Lakes for Girl's Weekend. This year was the first year we went and it was pretty fun. We drove up with Aunt Beth and met Grandma Deb, Aunt Lisa and Aunt Kim. On Saturday we made use of the spa in the hotel, did some shopping and went to a wonderful restaurant. It was a fun weekend and it was great to see everyone! Her are a few pictures from the weekend.

Grandma Deb decided it was time for Finley to try ice cream. I think she liked it.

Grandma also bought her this beautiful green gingham dress.


We took Finley in the hotel pool for then first time. There are no pics of her in the water because it was a quick swim. Some advice - never take a baby swimming after their bedtime.


Aunt Lisa bought Finley this net toy that you put food in and they can taste it but they can't get any chunks. Finley is enjoying some grapes in this photo.

Happy Birthday Uncle Travis!!!!!

Happy Easter!!

This Easter was kind of quiet for us. I made dinner on Saturday night for Aaron, his friend and some friends of ours. I worked all day Sunday while the boys and Fin went to Gary and Beth's house for lunch. It was a good weekend. Grandma Deb bought Finley her Easter dress and once again she was absolutely adorable.
She is also sitting very well these days. Here she is showing off her skills.
And standing too.
We hope everyone had a good Easter!!

An adendum

I need to correct an error I made in my previous post. The porno tub is in the bedroom NOT the bathroom.
