Fun at the lake!

Laura spent the weekend at Mimi & Bumpa's. (That's her name for Grandma & Grandpa G). The had a great time riding boats (a paddleboat & a deckboat), watching daddy waterski (who knew daddy could do anything so fun), and playing with Mimi & Bumpa.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this paddleboat thing. But a boat is a boat and I can't complain.


I'm floating! More deep! More deep!


I like this mommy.


Thanks Mimi, I'm having so much fun.


Sand is such dirty fun. I bet if I play in here I will get a bonus bathtime!

Time to dry off in the sun.

Princess for a day?

Today is costume day at Laura's daycare, so she dressed up as a princess. I am wondering if anyone will notice the difference!

This is more like it! I was born to wear this!


Hmmm, how shallt I exercise my absolute power today?


This is fun!


Oh, la la, the scepter is a nice touch.

Gorillas and Driving School

Laura and daddy had fun climbing trees today and pretending to be gorillas!


Gorilla girl!


Laura also got her first driving lesson on grandma Becky's driveway.
Get in the car, and take it for a spin!


Remember, always check your blind spots before pulling out into traffic!


and keep the hands at '10 & 2' on the wheel!

Go Twins!

Laura went to her first Twins game today at the Metrodome. She had a great time, and the Twins played well.


Go Twins!
From Laura's pregame commentary: "Cliff Lee is a tough lefty, so you will have to be patient. If he makes a mistake, you have to put good wood on the ball and score some runs. Play good 'D' and limit your mistakes and you have a good chance to win."
Look out Bert, LJ want's your job!

Go Twins!


Mmm. tasty malted milk cup.


Hi cousins!


The game wore her out!

Sharing some news

When Laura wore her 'Big Sister' t-shirt to daycare, she wondered why everyone was so excited?

What's this 'I'm gonna be a big sister' all about? What does it mean for me?


Laura loves the mommy.


But I still not so sure about this sibling thing!

Happy Birthday Auntie Mandi!

Happy birthday auntie Mandi! I hope your travels are going well! Time for a quick trip down memory lane for Mandi & Laura!

The first visit between the princesses!


Laura loves her godmother. She gives great advice!
