The best things....

Another week....
Daddy and his babes

Nightly cuddles with Blake

More Duluth Camping....

More pictures from our camping weekend....

Gooseberry Falls....beautiful day to go hiking.

Chilling in the Yukon while Daddy and Blake were swimming in Superior. It started raining, so I headed to the car with Olivia and we had some girl time.

Not long after we left Goosberry (or maybe on the way there....can't remember).

First Family Camping Trip

This past weekend we took off to Duluth for our 1st ever Family Camping trip! It was a blast and we can't wait to do it again. Blake was thrilled to sleep in the camper. Olivia had no clue what was going on, but had her pack-n-play to sleep in like usual when we travel.


Olivia being patient, playing with her toys, while we unpacked or something.

We all took a ride on the train out of Duluth, my 1st train ride ever.

Again....Olivia had no clue what was going on, so just was cute and happy.

Olivia at the Pool

My parents came up yesterday, and it was gorgeous out...so we took the kids to the pool. Blake had a blast like always and it was Olivia's 1st time to the wading pool. She actually didn't mind it, and the water wasn't "warm". Maybe we'll have 2 water babies!

Olivia at the garden

It was so beautiful this morning, I decided to bring Olivia over to Munsinger gardens to take some pictures of her for 3 Months.
Smiley girl

These pictures basically sum up Olivia...happy 99% of the time.

Sprinkler time!

Last night after we put Olivia to bed, we played outside in the sprinkler. Eric set it up for Blake to run through. He had a fun time!

Then he decided to water my flowers and the yard.

And it was way more fun trying to spray mommy and daddy!

3 Months

Today Olivia is 3 Months old (and exactly 13 weeks). She's starting to sleep through the night completely, some nights she's still getting up 1 time to eat. She smiles all the time and is such a happy baby.
Tummy time on the floor. She's also trying to sit up on her own already, she doesn't like being layed back if you're holding her on your lap...she has to sit up. Working those abs already.

Our 4 Year anniversary

Eric and I spent our 4 year wedding anniversary up in the Alexandria area. For Christmas his dad and Barb got us a night away at a family B&B in Alex, so they took the kids for us all weekend. We went up Friday night and spent the night with our friend Joe and his parents on Lake Gilchrest. Then went to Alex for the day/night Saturday.

Enjoying a quiet and romantic dinner at Bellas on Broadway. Really good food, and a giant Sangria! I finally was able to try Osso Buco, was amazing!

Before we checked into the hotel, we went to Lake Le Homme Deu to Gov.point and spent some time boating and turtle hunting with a coworker of Eric's. Had to catch some turtles for the kids to have turtle races. Was a fun time!

Before dinner a decent storm rolled through the area, we sat on the porch of the B&B before dinner and enjoyed the storm with Erics' great aunt and uncle (who own the B&B). After dinner we went on a drive and it was so beautiful out!

Double Rainbow

It was a great weekend, nice to get away and have some adult time....and the kids had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa Weller!

Life is Rough I tell ya

While at the cabin this past weekend, Olivia got her 1st pedicure. Must have really been exhausting, because she passed out in her Bumbo moments after.

12 weeks

Little Miss is 12 weeks...only 1 more week til she is 3 months old. She's blowing bubbles and raspberries, and thinks it's funny when we blow raspberries in the air at her. She's even had her 1st small laugh while we were playing that game on Monday night. Olivia loves to talk and will carry on a conversation with you about anything (as long as it's "ooooh, ahhhh, eeeeh") She's a major cuddlebug and always wants to be sitting or standing up. She's been sleeping about 6 hours at a stretch which is amazing compared to what I got when Blake was this age.

4th of July

We had a wonderful 4th of July up at the cabin...here are my little firecrackers!

These are the great grandkids on Eric's mom's side of the family....Blake & Olivia, Jacob & Jayden. WAs able to get a photo of all 4.
