Theo @ 7 Months

At Theo's last appointment he was 15lbs

Currently he loves being held, trying to chase the vacuum, snuggling with a blanket, being outside, playing with his toys, and eating real food.

 I think he also loves his papa. With Meadow in school we spend a lot of the time with just the two of us.

He gets around in his own way by twisting his body and rolling.

I'm always wondering, "How exactly did he get across the room?"

He sits on his own, but is still a little off balance.

He doesn't sit still when you change his diaper.

He likes to flail, roll and do anything but stay still.

So far he's had carrots, applesauce, sweet potatoes, winter squash, apples and blueberries. He's loved everything he's tried and always asks for more by yelling. He's still not very coordinated to feed himself.

He does hold his own bottle from time to time.

He still wakes up 1-3 times at night, but is still on his own schedule of bed by 8 and awake by 8. He takes two long naps during the day.

I love those long naps. I get a lot work done.

His hair is all even in color and length.

He still gets shy when people look at him. He will smile then look away. He's also started noticing strangers and gets sad if someone he doesn't know holds him.

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast.   Scott added granola to his oatmeal.  The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it.   Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof.  Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

4th of July 2025: Our Annual Romenesko Reunion

4th of July, you say? Of course we were going up to Three Lakes and the cottage. I took a half day on Thursday and we headed to the cottage. Scott had to stop in Lindstrom which brought us to an old favorite for lunch in Taylor's Falls, The Drive In . Still pretty, pretty good. Even though it was super hot today, we had to keep our AC on.  This is the one time of the year where the whole family is together. Exchanging of belated birthday gifts it is. Theo didn't know what he wanted so he got money. Meadow got a new hairbrush and the Warriors Ultimate Guide Book. We all seem to stick to our greatest hits for the 4th weekend. Brittany and Jeff once again made table nachos. This is making me want nachos back home. Do we look alike? I think that with this seating arrangement that you can see how both Chelsea and Brooke look like Brittany, but Brooke and Chelsea don't look anything alike. The good place.  Blake already had a quest for the kids to do. Why does Brooke look this cu...

The Biggest Maple Tree in Minnesota

On the night before St Patricks Day, Meadow made a leprechaun trap.  Maybe next year Meadow.   Meadow was having a rough morning and needed a hug.  She wanted to play Zelda all day long. The rest of us wanted to go on a hike. We spend so much time getting these kids to get outside and once they are outside they don't want to come back in. Scott chose this weeks hike based off his current love of old growth forests. Wolsfeld Woods SNA just west of the cities in Medina. It's home to the tallest sugar maple in the state.
