Just me and my Dad

Leo loves his "Dada". He laughs and giggles when they play. I love watching the two of them together. Leo is lucky to have such a wonderful Daddy!

Scooting!

Leo has mastered scooting backwards, now we just need to work on moving forwards!

Dinner time at the Allen House...

Horray for food!


So Thirsty!


Get me out of here!




All clean!

The Zoo

Kevin and I took Leo to the MN Zoo on Sunday afternoon. It was a beautiful day and we wanted to be outside so we thought we would try the Zoo. I guess other people had the same idea because it was PACKED!!! There were strollers and kids EVERYWHERE!!! Leo loved all of the commotion and excitement. I think he enjoyed looking at all of the kids and listening to all of the sounds more than he liked seeing the animals. At one point Kevin was trying to show Leo the otters and he looked down and Leo was busy playing with the zipper on his jacket...Oh well, whatever makes you happy! We decided to get a membership so we will be back, maybe on a weekday when it's a little less busy...

COUSINS!!!

Leo is so excited to finally have a cousin, he already loves Ellie so much! We went over to Jenny and Tobys on Friday night for dinner. It was great to spend time with the whole family. Ellie is so sweet and small I just love cuddling with her! Jenny and Toby are doing great and Bill and Kathy are loving having two grandkids!

9 Months!

Leo was 9 months old on the 4th. Wow, where has the time gone. He is at such a fun stage. Leo loves to...laugh, giggle, smile, talk (ma, ba), eat (baby food, avocado, cottage cheese, tofu, toast, puffs, yogurt, spaghetti, and anything he can get his hands on), swing at the park, go for walks, bounce and jump, scoot backwards, play with toys, look at books, dance to music, go to school, swim in the pool and the tub, entertain a crowd, be with his family and give high-fives. Everyday I see more and more little boy and less and less little baby. He is such a sweet kid, we couldn't love him more!

My friend Lindsay is a very talented photographer and took a bunch of pictures of Leo last week. I posted a few on the blog but you can check out the rest of them by copying and pasting this link:

Go Twins!

We went to the twins pre-season game on Saturday afternoon at the new Target Field. It was amazing! Our friends Mary and Adam were in town and we went with them to our first game at the new outdoor stadium. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, the stadium was beautiful and the company was great. It was so fun to spend the day outside watching Twins baseball. We loved spending time with Mary and Adam who we only get to see every couple of months. We also had the pleasure of meeting their new puppy, Lady, a French Bulldog. She is darling!!! I can't wait to go to another game, GO TWINS!
