Dance Party

Dancing with Johnson in preparation for the big number

A pink rose from Johnson for a job well done!

Kissing Cousins

A Walk in Lakeside

We love the new paved trail that extends from the Lakewalk all through Lakeside!
We hope to use it much more soon!!!

Stylish Little Lady

Super cute vest and chords from Auntie Shanna (that she finally fits in to)!

This little number I picked up from the kids consignment at the Decc (which was pretty much a bust - but hopefully bigger and better next year).

First Father's Day

We woke up with cuddle schmuddles...

Took Daddy to Pizza Luce for brunch which filled our souls with wonderful music and our bellies with scrumptious biscuts and gravy...

Then to Lester River for a beautiful hike and a dip in the river...

Daddy carried me in the Ergo (thanks again Auntie Kam, Uncle Nick and Archer)...

The water was cool on my toes...

But with Daddy holding my hands, I knew it was all okay...

Momma and Charlie got to come along too...

To look and the big beautiful water falls...

And do some more hiking...

And sleeping...

And more cuddling during our nap in the shade...

Finally, we finished our wonderful day together at our favorite place...

The Brewhouse Patio. I love you, Daddy!

Good Morning Momma!

I recently had my first overnight away from my girl. It was definitely hard, but managable thanks to Daddy! He is so incredibly wonderful with our little girl, and so great at keeping Momma up to date with text messages, emails, photos, phone calls and this priceless "good morning momma" video...

Auti-Cado's

Autumn loved her Avacado's!!!

Not 1 but 2!!!

TEETH! Autumn started showing signs of teething a while ago and about two weeks ago we found her first bottom tooth coming in! Then last week we found her little tooth had a little friend! Here is a photo of Auti drooling up a storm :)

Motherhood is Bliss

Now I know Mother's Day was a while ago, but I am just getting around to posting these... I was spoiled rotten with a beautiful Sunday drive up the shore with the two best people on the planet - John and Autumn. I was gifted an hour massage with hot stones at Waters Meet Spa in Lutsen! When I came out, John and Autumn had beautiful flowers for me. Then we went for a short walk before a nice drive back, only to stop at our FAVORITE place to eat - the Scenic Cafe! That wasn't it... I got two wonderful cards and a beautiful star necklace with a georgous agate inside! I am not only one spoiled Momma, but as I now reflect back on this day, a proud one as well. I am the luckiest woman on the planet.

Good Eats

So our girl has been eating solids for a couple weeks now. Here are a few photo's of her first time! Here Autumn enjoys some sweet potatos and tonight we are having carrots!

6 Months (I know a bit late)

So our little lady is now almost 7 months, but our dear friend Kayla took these beautiful photo's of Autumn for her "6 month photos". I am finally getting around to putting them up and I hope you enjoy these as much as we do! Our girl is growing up...

This is why I still sit in the backseat with my girl!!!
