Silly Pictures

Landon was being silly so I decided to take some pictures!

Landon got to take his first jet ski ride a few weeks ago at the lake. He really enjoyed his first trip

We have been very busy going to the lake and getting ready to go back to school. I can't believe it is already that time of the year again.

USA!

A year ago we cheered on the Men's US soccer team.... And this weekend we are ready for a VICTORY from the Women's US team. We will be at the lake cheering them on.
Everyone have a great weekend! Stay cool, we have a few highs in the 100s. We will be on the lake, in the lake, or at the beach.

Catching Up

Well, we haven't posted in a while, so please excuse the ridiculous amount of pictures.
We went to Minnesota at the end of June for a wedding and Landon got his first real haircut at a place for kids. As you can tell Landon did not enjoy the haircut, but he was darn cute when it was all done.

Landon got to do some swimming at Tama and Papa's and he loved it, even though it was a little chilly. Here is Landon learning to jump in (sort of) from the side of the pool.

Here is Landon pushing the bubble mower (which he loved), and gramma got him one of his own that he got to take home with us.

Out at gramma and grampa's farm Landon got to play with some kitties and he loved it as you can see.

Landon was a crazy boy at night while at Tama and Papa's.

Landon and cousing Mallory and Brady kept themselves busy during the wedding since they were causing a little bit of a distraction in the church during the ceremony.

And Uncle Luke was having some fun with Landon and the cousins

It appears cousin Brady has decided he wants to be a Husker fan....too bad he lives in Iowa

Here's our whole little family at the wedding

Here is the whole family posing for a picture after the wedding.

Here is Landon cuddling with his snake he got at the St. Louis Zoo

Uncle Chase came up to visit for the fourth of July. Here he is enjoying a "juice" with Landon

Landon had fun at the fourth of July parade, watching everything and gathering candy.

Daddy had to work on the fourth, but Landon came to say hello.

There was a huge sand area downtown and Landon absolutely loved playing in the sand.

Family Trip

This past week we went to St. Louis to spend a few days. We visited the animals at the zoo and fed baby goats at Grants Farm. Even though the temps were close to 100 we still had a good time. Landon enjoyed swimming in the pool at the hotel and hanging out with his shirt off. I don't think I can pick out a favorite animal Landon had at the zoo, but we all enjoyed the penguins since they were inside their 50 degree home. Grants Farm was probably one of the best places I have been in awhile. You get to bottle feed baby goats and let me tell you my son loved this. He was not scared and he was walking around the goats like he owned the place. He let them eat his shirt, shorts, and hair and just pushed them away like it was no big deal. It was a great experience and we will be back.

Landon 15 Months

Weight 20lbs 12oz 5%

Height 28.75 in 3%

Head 18.5 in 50%

Everything went well at Landons appointment. His doctor was very impressed that he could fling a hair tie at him and said he has never had a 15 month old do that!

This coming week we are headed to the lake with some friends and then the week after we head home to Minnesota to help Seths cousin celebrate his marriage. We are very excited for the weeks to come, but sad to think we are that close to July already. Ok, I am not thinking about that month yet....

Garage Sale find...

Landon and I have been going to a lot of garge sales. We have found same pretty good deals. We always seem to find the really sweet things when Seth comes with us. Here is a picture of the coolest thing Landon has gotten from a garage sale. I was so surprised to see Landon get on and know how to ride this thing. He was a pro and was fearless. I am not sure I really like what our future holds with this brave child we have on our hands. We have a few videos of Landon riding his new kawasaki but we are having problems uploading them to blogger. Does anyone else have this problem?

15 Months

We can not believe our little man is 15 months (well 15 months and 1 day, sorry I am late). Landon has such a neat personality. He lets us know what he wants and if he doesn't get the right thing he lets us know (loudly). We go to the doctor next week so we will update on the stats then. Over the weekend we were at the lake and had a great time. The weather was wonderful and we enjoyed the boat, the sand, and not the lake yet. It is still way to cold for everyone expect Seth. I guess my brother got in but only to take a bath so I don't know if that really counts :) Here are some pictures from the weekend.

We are heading to St. Louis the beginning of next week for a little family trip to the zoo and Grants Farm.
