Another Beautiful Day in Minnesota

Today is my mom's birthday.  Happy Birthday Mom!  And for your present, here are a ton of pictures that we took in the beautiful weather yesterday.  We spent nearly the entire day outside.  It is beautiful again today, and we are planning on getting back outside as soon as I finish this!

All the best, we love you all,

Here are some pictures of Gus in his entertainment center.  He is almost tall enough to start jumping!

I might have gotten carried away with pictures...but the leaves are so pretty, and it was too sunny to see if the pictures were good so I just kept snapping away!

A few more pictures from my mom's blog

Here are some very random pictures from my mom's blog.

a quick picture before Maria and Joe headed back to MO.  They are moving to Texas later this month.

And here are a few funny pictures of me and my sisters when we were younger.  The first one is of us one Halloween and the other is of a baking day.  Can you tell which one is me?  Also, yes, those Halloween costumes were make out of corn leaves, and yes, we did leave a terrible mess everywhere we went that year...but don't we look cute?

Pictures from the changing table and...I found my toes!

Sorry there has been a drought of pictures lately.  We have had a string of beautiful weather, and I guess we have just been out enjoying it and forgetting to take the camera along.  But, I will work harder to keep the camera with me and capture every moment of little Gus.  Enjoy!

The changing table.

And here are some pictures of Gus's newest trick--he can touch his toes!

We love you and miss you all!

Pictures from Bill's camera

Since I don't have any new pictures to share, here are the pictures Bill has taken on his phone recently.

The first two picture are from the walk that Bill and Gus went on while I was at work last night.  It was the first time Gus wore his little baseball cap.  And, a little shout-out all the way to Egypt--Rana, he loves his elephant, and don't worry, I washed it.

The rest of these pictures are from Sunday when we watched the Steeler's game.  This first one is my favorite.  I snapped it when both of them were intently focused on the game.  Shortly after this Bill yelled in celebration when the Steelers scored their first touchdown, and scared Gus nearly half to death.  Notice also in this picture Gus' special blanket that Bill insisted he have even before he was born.

And here he is all dressed up in his jersey and waving around his little terrible toddler towel.

I promise to take and add new pictures soon!  We love you all,

Nancy and Gus
