Hello - Mike here, Marnie's had a busy week/month so she asked me to get a few photos up this evening. While I was at it thought I would jot down a few words
Maude's steamrolling the English language. We figure she's at around 150 words (and picking up new ones each day lately) and well over a dozen animal noises to go along with it (she's getting particularly good at her bear growl).
We've been out and about the town on our bikes a lot lately. We got a trailer to tow her in and while she wasn't quite warm to it at first now she's pretty game for a ride (she also tends to snooze in it as we pedal along). We hit grocery stores, parks, splash pools, the library - anywhere we can get to around here. Fortunately St Paul is a great bike city (and Dad is glad it's mostly flat).
And now off to the pictures--
17 month photo shoot
Hats! (selection by Maude)
Stretching it out at the park.
Splash Pool!
Somehow I picked the coolest afternoon
in several weeks to check this place out.
The good news - not crowded when it's cloudy!
Can't the paparazzi just let me
go to the farmer's market?
Dad auditioning to be a turtle at
the Children's Museum.
What do you mean these
aren't my socks?
Who put their freakin'
pineapple in my cart??
