Another wintery roadtrip to MN

Blowing snow, freezing temps, and wind = another winter road trip. We hope it's the last winter travel of the year. It's got to be, next week is already March!

The winter conditions did not phase Gus, and he was able to catch a few Zzzz's in the car. This sticker was originally on his sweater, but ended up stuck to his face after he fell asleep and his head slouched down to his shoulder.

Gabs was all smiles, as usual!

We had a delicious, winter lunch at Meg and Bjorn's house in St. Paul (thank you Meg, Bjorn, and Brett!). The chili warmed us up. And Nora felt right at home.

Gus loved playing with the guys. I'm sure they were exhausted when we left. Meg and Bjorn had some awesome toys and projects on-hand. He loved it!

Thank you, everyone, for hosting us this weekend.

Baby Yogis

These shots of Nora reminded us of a few old pics of Gus.



6 months old

Nora passed her 6 month check up. Here's her stats:

17 lbs, 65th percentile
26 inches, 50th percentile

We've found that in the last month, she's become a very serious gal. The only person she laughs for is Gus. I was lucky to capture this smirk! She's a thinker.

And February is almost over

Where has the time gone? Gus and Nora have been busy, and kind of sick, throughout February.

Highlights:

Cuddling with Gpa Dave

Getting the band back together! It was a old neighbor-reunion, and it was awesome.


Gabby came to visit, and the kids were all smiles.

Even Molly the dog came along.

They thought of this on their own, so please don't turn us into social services. See the smiles on their faces?

Nora got 2 new adorable rocking chairs from Gma and Gpa Vickie and Dave. The small chair is perfect for her baby. Although she is confused because she thought she was the baby?


Clever

Jumping!
