Summer Snacks

Life is good. We've been enjoying the calm of the summer. Our house is so inviting this summer, even so much that cardinals have built a nest in our flower basket. We're eagerly awaiting the sight of five little baby birds.



Amélie continues to get bigger. For real, this girl is heavy, her thighs are huge, and she grows fuzz in her fat rolls. I think she would eat anything. Here is the proof. The poor cardinals look as though they'll be fatherless.

Slugger...

Amélie attended her first Twins (vs. the BlueJays) baseball game yesterday at the Metrodome, which is soon to be extinct. She was quite festive in her Twins gear, thanks to the grandparents! But a bigger thank-you to Jim (my cousin) for the awesome tickets... it was so cool to sit in the first row, lounging with our feet on the railing and almost getting nailed by two baseballs! It was tons of fun - thank you!

For the most part, Amélie loved the game, especially the booming sounds... but got a bit bored as you will see:

Happy Mother's Day!

Yahoo. I literally JUST walked in the door from taking my last law exam, thank God. Not only do I feel A-W-E-S-O-M-E after being done with my first year in law school with a much better feeling that I'll pass this semester... I had a house full of family (the awesome g-parents), yummy candy, a brand new compact camera (I only have a big SLR that sucked to carry around), and a beautiful card signed from the 5 month old genius waiting for me.

Ummm, I would like any one out there in internet-land to try top my man. Seriously, try to top him. I dare you.
