Theo @ 3 Years





Our little love Theodore. He's not afraid to show his emotions and has a kind heart.

He's the best hugger you've ever met. 

He is 3'1" tall and weighs 30 lbs.


He loves being outside, building things, helping us cook, playing video games, super heroes, his baby and blanket.

He loves to pretend to be Link and Batman and Lightning McQueen is his jam.

In the last year he's become a Papa's boy.

I love the little runt. Most of the time.


He still looks up to Meadow and loves everything she likes.

At least when Meadow's not picking on him.

He's gotten pickier with eating. Loves breakfast but not a fan of dinner. But he'll still try something when asked.

Meadow is his guide and he'll basically eat what she eats.


He's really picked up talking in the last year to full sentences and stories. He has a little bit of a stutter.

Think it runs from Meadow to Theo. It's so much fun talking to my little guy.

He hates getting his diaper changed and also refuses to use the toilet.

This will be the death of me.


He's still a night owl and likes to sleep in. Occasionally still takes naps when he gets up early.

If he could stay up to midnight every day he'd be happy. Most of the time we try to get him to bed before 9. But he'd be just fine with it being New Year's Eve every day.

How old are you? Showed me 3 fingers with his hand.

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...

A Smoky Weekend at the Cottage and a Stop at Ladysmith's Northland Mardi Gras

This summer we decided to go to the cottage any weekend we had nothing else going on. This week, due to fires in the Boundary Waters and Canada, the air quality was pretty terrible. We debated if we should still go, but it looked like it would clear up by Saturday. So we took the chance. And by terrible, we mean the worst air quality we'd ever seen. Along the way we decided to stop at John and Heidi's Happy Daze . We've passed this place probably 100 times. It was about time to stop by. I ordered the prime rib sandwich special.  Yummy. The sandwich that is. Everybody's food was really good, but Brooke's was the star of the show.  I want to get back here asap. Now if only this pesky smoke would go away.

To Chippewa Falls for the Northern Wisconsin State Fair

I saw that the Northern Wisconsin State Fair was happening and we didn't have anything else planned. We booked a campsite at Lake Wissota State Park and we were on our way.  We hadn't been to a county fair yet and this seemed like it might be even better. We set up camp first in case we would be back late. This was a good excuse for a quick camping trip. Plus we'd never been to Lake Wissota State Park before or Chippewa Falls, really. Since 1897 Chippewa Falls has been hosting the Northern Wisconsin State Fair. More of a super-regional county fair, Wisconsin’s other state fair started as a way for folks up north to avoid the grueling, long haul down to Milwaukee County. Our first stop was to fill up our big jug of lemonade. I think this is the 4th year of this big jug. Brooke brings a couple of our old lemonade jugs with just in case. Then you get the refill price.
