Bluebirds Moving In???

Our bluebird houses have been homes for many birds, but not fo bluebirds yet. We have a pair looking like they might move in, but we have competition from other houses put up by the middle school behind our house.

Trip to the Zoo

Dad took Aurora to see the "Farm Babies" exhibit at the MN Zoo.

We stopped and looked at the otters.

Baby Chicks!!!!!

That's a lot of BULL!!!! (2300 lbs)

Petting a Shetland Baby Lamb!

Hanging out by the barn.

Goats!!!

Baby Calves

What are they doing to the bottom of the cow?!?!?!?

Time to go home and eat lunch.

Trip to Washington

My first plane ride!!!!

The welcoming committee of Sport and Dutchess.

Coffee shop by the Pacific. Aurora wanted to watch the water.


I get to meet Aunt Shandra. Uncle Severin hasn't held me since I was 4 days old.

Aurora was very happy during the rehearsal. All dressed up with cousins before the wedding.

The dress dad made for me tastes very good.

With Uncle Severin right before he gets married.

No pictures of the wedding recpetion. What happens in Bellingham stays in Bellingham. Aurora turns out to be quite the dancer.

The next morning we say goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa at IHOP.

We got to stay in a Victorian style hotel. The building was built in 1876.

We traveled all over the Northwest corner of Washington. Here is a picture of the Hoh rain forest along the "Hall of Mosses."

Aurora hitched a ride on Mom.

Waiting for the ferry to Port Townsend.

Dad carries Aurora in Deception Pass State Park. You can see the bridge in the far background.

In February the family went to the Children's Museum in St. Paul. Aurora loved all the exhibits, but especially loved to play in the water.

We are working on having Aurora feed herself. She is coming along.

Aurora is now crawling (last video entry), and any day now we expect her to be walking. She will often climb up on the furniture and walk around using it as a support. She will even take a few steps with Mom and Dad holding her. (sorry, we can't seem to capture that on video)

She does love to chase Taylor around and play with her chew toys and play tug of war.

In Februrary and March we battled cold after cold. That rhino virus can be annoying.
