We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a great time in St. Cloud celebrating Lauren’s first Christmas with family and friends. Lauren enjoyed playing with Great Grandpa Paul in her jumper. She was excited to open gifts — so she could play with the gift wrap. She also got another visit from (Read the Rest…)

Last night we took Lauren to her first ever MN Wild game (Thanks Veegs for the tickets) and it will be one we’ll remember for a long time. Marion Gaborik became the first player in Wild history to score four goals in a game, let alone five. The last NHL player to score five goals (Read the Rest…)

Well Miss Lauren, I’m sure you are telling stories at school today about the Wild’s game you saw last night! What fun and the pictures are perfect. Great Grandpa and I viewed all the latest postings. And I love that look as she’s sitting on Santa’s lap — her little eyes are so big and full of wonder…… Love her and both of you very much, Nana Jo
Lauren got to meet Santa at my Christmas party this year and the look on her face says it all- who is this guy with his fuzzy white beard and funny costume? She just checked him out a little and then had fun playing with wrapping paper. We also had a few holiday parties this (Read the Rest…)

Such a beautiful girl. A fun “Merry Christmas Moment”, thanks for sharing guys. Love you-DEL
We took Lauren swimming for a birthday party last weekend – she liked the water but didn’t splash as much as she does in the bath. She was more interested in watching the older kids jump in off the sides of the pool. And she didn’t even mind too much when I dunked her underwater!

Oh what fun! Looking at the pictures I can just imagine her reaction — brings back memories of when Josh and Erin first experienced the pool too…. She’s such a sweetheart and I’m always waiting for the next time I can cuddle and love her:) She didn’t look frightened at all — hope she continues to love the water.
Love, Nana Jo

November has been a busy month so far! We started out by celebrating my birthday and I had a couple of fun nights out with friends. Then Lauren came down with a fever which was pretty tough on Josh and I- the worst were the shots and finger pricks she had to endure at the (Read the Rest…)

Well Lauren had quite the first Halloween complete with 2 different outfits. We thought her Butterfly costume might be a little much for a day at school so she went as a cowgirl wearing her cowboy hat from Uncle Jeff and her Boots from Manda. Yee Haw!

Lauren is now 4 months old and Josh and I are having so much fun watching her little personality develop- I can’t believe the changes in her during the past month. She is grabbing onto everything and has all of the exersaucer toys figured out… she loves to “sing” to us and looking at herself (Read the Rest…)

It’s been a while since our last post! I could look at the exersaucer pictures forever, but thought it was time for an update. We were up at the cabin a couple weeks ago and celebrated Opa Rob’s birthday. The leaves were already changing there and it was fun to take Lauren out for walks (Read the Rest…)

Yes, Lauren, you are the “Main Event” these days! How many times did we say, “Oh, look at how cute she is!” last weekend?
At least 100 times or more!! Thanks to Uncle Dave Hensrud for getting those new pics of you to your momma! Love and miss those chubby cheeks (and legs!) of yours! Hugs and Kisses from Grandma Mary
Lauren is 3 months old today and we can’t believe how much she changes in just one week… she’s growing so fast and I had a hard time putting away her newborn outfits. She’s “talking” more and loves being in her exersaucer. She has also started paying more attention to Koda and is not quite (Read the Rest…)

Lauren slept through the night twice this week! I panicked for a minute the first morning when I realized that my alarm woke me up instead of Lauren’s cries… and when she did wake at 6:30, we were all smiles- what a great way to start the day :) All the activity at daycare must (Read the Rest…)

We all went to the MN State Fair today! It was fun to take Lauren out and she was quite the trooper… Josh and I basically go for the food every year- corn on the cob, cheese curds, malts, and this year we tried bull bites and a deep fried Milky Way. Pretty tasty! I (Read the Rest…)

It was a wonderful Christmas with you here to celebrate with Auntie Erin, Uncle Joe and Great Grandpa Paul!
You are all such a blessing to our family and such a beautiful little baby with a delightful, happy, personality — we can never get “our fill” of you. P.S. Santa’s reindeer were back this morning…….Love you all, Nana Jo
