New Toy

I used some of the birthday and Christmas money I had been saving up to get a GPS/heart rate monitor to run with. Got it today and took it for a spin. The stats you can bring up are very cool. Thus proving I am a data nerd.

Cubs Game

We are at the Cubs game. Top of the 6th and the Cubs are winning 10-2. Emma has been very excited for this game.

After the game, Emma and her cousin Hannah got to run the bases. It was very cool. Even more special was seeing the look of amazement on Emma's face as she stepped onto the field.

Bad Hair Day

Evy got a bath before bed last night and has been dealing with crazy hair all day today.

Teacher's Lounge

For my birthday, some teachers brought in treats for the staff.  The theme was Cubs and being at the ballpark.  The best part about this elaborate setup is the cooler in the back.  If you lift this lid, there is a picture of the top of some cans and the words, "Yeah, you wish."

Another early birthday highlight was a shirt from Baumgartner's that says, "Pull My Finger."  If you don't know, Baumgartner's is this famous cheese store and tavern in Monroe, WI.  Cheese Day's are held in Monroe with Baumgartner's being the highlight.

Played Out

This photo is the result of two full days of non-stop playing with
family and friends. Spring Break crash.

Nice Weather

Thanks to nice weather, the entire family can hang outside.

Good Point Emma

Last night, Emma was telling us about a toy called a Zhu Zhu pet that she wanted. We could not figure out where she learned about this toy and it certainly did not come from her parents. These Zhu Zhu pets are toy hamsters (that is our understanding). I asked Emma what a Zhu Zhu pet does. She replied, "I don't know." So I asked Emma, "If you don't know what they do, then why do you want one?" Emma said, "So I can figure it out."

Good point.

Four Month Photos

We are getting ready to get Evelyn's four month photos done. This is
the outfit she will wear.

Papa's Birthday

Emily shot a better photo of Papa on his birthday.

Ready to Bounce?

Emma is willing to teach Evelyn how to bounce. This was one of Emma's favorite baby toys.

Happy Birthday Papa

Last night we celebrated Papa's birthday. Emma was excited all day.

Morning Girl

This is Evelyn's typical morning expression. Smiles and chatter.
