Traverse De Two Left or How We Went to 25 of the 26 Minnesota Historic Sites

This weekend we planned on hitting up the last few historic sites that aren't in Fargo-Moorhead. But first Little buddy had his first taste of food. Watermelon. He's growing up. Scott has been very busy with work. With Meadow and Theo home he doesn't get much done. I took the kids to a playdate and then over to Oliver Kelley's Farm for the day so he could work.

He rolls from front to back and back to front.  For a couple weeks he was sleeping through the night. He still goes to bed between 8:30-10 and get's up once at night. Now he seems to wake up once or twice. He's working on sitting up. We can put him in the high chair when we eat although he gets upset watching us eat.  He has hair, but its so blonde it's hard to...
