Linus Crawling

We are looking forward to having a weekend at home. Dana has plans to build the girls a swing set. Below are the plans Brynn drew up for it.



I forgot in my last post that I was going to update on the summer camps at Hope. Brynn is excited this year because Rosha is there with her. And Brynn has been making some new friends, too. This past week's theme was 'All Things Ball.' They made popcorn balls and went to a RedHawks game. So fun. They have also been going swimming, to area parks and the library. 

This is one of Brynn's new friends, Keana. I had bought this yellow shirt for Brynn at Target and she was so excited when I showed it to her because apparently Keana has the same one. So, they made a plan to match one day. It was so funny.


Of course Brynn's shoes are untied.

And Rosha! 




I have been wanting to capture this one camera...little Linus with her blankie. Whenever she's tired and/or snuggles her blankie, she automatically starts sucking her thumb. he he. So cuddly.


And if she's extra tired, she'll just lie herself down on the floor.





By request, here is some crawling footage. ;-) The second video is more giggling than crawling, but I love to hear her laugh. She looooves balloons. (If you want to view the videos in their own web window via YouTube, click on the YouTube icon toward the bottom of each video and it will open up in a separate window and be easier to view.)

Happy 10th Birthday, Clara!

Clara made a countdown chain to her 10th birthday. We baked a red velvet cake for her family party and chocolate cupcakes for her friend party. She looks so tall in some of these pics! Izabell's boyfriend, Neil, and Clara share the same birthday, so they all went out for lunch on their actual birthday on the 2nd. And then Neil had to get a tour of the Clara Express. Dana was in charge of getting balloons for the party and I sent him to Dollar Tree which apparently doesn't fill latex balloons, only Mylar. Dana "just knew" he had gotten the 'wrong' ones, and called me in a fit of rage over it and then followed up with this photo. haha. It all worked out just fine for Clara's ninja themed parties and I was able to pick up a few more black latex balloons from Cash Wise on my way home from work. Clara had already started partying at Prairie Joy's birthday party the night before, so I think she was short on sleep. I couldn't find her when I got home on F...

Mom + Brynn Take Chicago 2024

Brynn and I were very excited to embark on our mother-daughter trip to Chicago this week. We had gifted Brynn part of the trip as her sweet 16 birthday gift. We flew direct out of Fargo on Wednesday. We stayed at the Grand Plaza apartments on State Street in a VRBO rental. We loved it there! The building had an outdoor rooftop pool, library, gaming/movie room and gym on the 9th floor. This was us looking down from our 50th floor balcony. I refused to go to the edge of the balcony. Blech. (Photo credit: Brynn on this one!) Here are a few pics of inside the apartment that I hawked off of the VRBO listing. We got our things settled and ran next door to a Jewel Osco grocery for a few things and then got ready for dinner at River Roast along the Chicago River. It was very good and beautiful weather. I think Brynn said this was her favorite place that we ate at. Our waiter Jorge brought Brynn a carrot cake when we said we were celebrating Brynn's birthday on the trip. We came back to the...

End of Summer

Nanny Izabell was done with us mid-August as she got a full-time job. We had another great summer with her and she and Clara accomplished a lot from their summer bucket list. Clara busted out the kite Dad bought for her in Myrtle Beach. She really had fun with it. Dana with the crew from Dude's Weekend. You can see brother John third in from the left. With Izabell's departure, Clara went to stay at Grandpa and Grandma Dietz's. She spent some time at the lake and in Carrington. Dana FaceTimed Clara's swim meet she participated in while I was in Chicago so I could watch and cheer her on. She won both races she was in and overall for the categories she competed in. It was very exciting! She was home for a bit and then off again, this time to Grandpa and Grandma Froemmings'! But first, one last swim sesh in for the year...with Adria! Brynn babysat for Clara's friends and they made this cute sign. Grandma Holly surprised Clara with a visit by Dana's cousins kids ...
