Theo @ 3 Months

 Our little Theo is growing like a weed. I feel like I'm always moving him up a size in clothing.

Everyone always mentions how big and grownup he looks.

He loves keeping his hands in fists and has recently started holding things if you put it in his hands.


He still loves to sleep. When he's awake he's happy for awhile then realizes he's awake and gets mad until he falls asleep again.


He goes to bed between 7:30-9, wakes up between 3am-6am and usually gets up for the day at 8:30. He still takes 5 naps during the day.


He's started sucking his wrists when he wants to sleep.

He's happiest when facing forward and has to sit with us when we eat.


He's the most upset when he takes a bath. He's only been fine with a bath like 3 times, otherwise he screams bloody murder.

He's discovered tv and tries to watch whenever it's on.

He's a fast nurser. Only nurses for about 10 minutes tops, but refuses a bottle.

He has graduated to cloth diapers, although his thighs are still not quite as big so he occasionally leaks.

He has had his first sickness already. He picked up a chest cold from his big sister. Luckily it didn't seem to bother him.

He currently loves his mobile over his diaper changing area. I switched out the black and white patterns for pictures of people. He just loves it. He smiles and talks to those pictures whenever we change his diaper.

Sisters, a Brother and Walking Chicago

  Summer always seems to mean one thing: weddings. Whether I'm shooting or attending, we're bound to end up at a few every year.  This time around we were heading down to Chicago from my big sister Katrina's nuptials. I feel like all our vacations are centered around a wedding or something wedding related. I wish we could go on a vacation without having to worry about being somewhere.   It also means a few repetitive trips down I-94. There aren't nearly enough unique stops off the interstate. One outlier is Foster Cheese Haus , the only organic Wisconsin cheese shop I know of. Run by the folks behind Castle Rock Organic Farms , we always try to stop by. Unfortunately for us they were closed on Wednesdays, but at least we got to spy on their darling garden out front.    Brooke and I arrived in Necedah. We decided to stop at Brooke's sister Brittany's home along the way to cut the ride in half and get her dressed hemmed.   ...

Dakotas Road Trip: Badlands and Black Hills

  I thought we would skip Wall Drug this time since we've seen it before but Scott was gun ho on going.  Come on. You can't go to the Badlands and skip the world's greatest tourist trap. First stop ice cream.  We thought we would have lunch here but after seeing the prices decided we would cook something at the park instead. But first we had to take a couple tourist pics. When we we decided we were coming here I was expecting it to be 90's and hot. Did not think it would be rainy, chilly and foggy.  I always make Brooke look cool. She on the other hand always finds a way to take a pic at the most awkward possible moment. Either that or I'm just really awkward. Earlier this year, I asked Theo where he wanted to go on vacations this year. He said he wanted to backpack camp at the Badlands because he was sad he didn't get to go yet. This is all for you buddy.

Chicago Chrismukkah + Michigander Xmas

 Before heading out on our trip we let the kids open their Christmas gifts from us. A knitted sweater for Theo and a kitty dress for Meadow (I fixed the straps for her) both made by me. I wanna a sweater. Scott got them new compact sleeping bags. We all got smaller sleeping bags this year and we'll now have a lot more room in our car. This year we had talked about hosting my family at the cottage. Then meeting up in Milwaukee, then meeting in Chicago. But in the end we made stops in Chicago and Lowell this Christmas. We left on a Sunday which was nice to have a few days to prepare. On the way down to Chicago we stopped at our favorite roadside restaurant, Foster Cheese Haus. We had plans to break up our drives so we didn't have to rush like we normally do. We had made it just before the cheese haus was set to close for the winter. Just not enough folks stop here in winter and snowmobile season is becoming shorter and shorter this far so...
