Eating Lemons....

Lila is so funny.  Here is a little video I took of her eating lemons a few weeks ago.  She keeps trying them...wonder when she will figure it out =).

School starts tomorrow.  I'm ready for it, except for the fact that someone in some high up place decided that it would be a good idea for 6th graders to start school at 7:35 in the morning.  Seriously?  So for the next 4 years until Bella gets her drivers license, I will be rising super early to get her to school.  Yuck, yuck, yuck.  I don't do mornings.  I missed out on all the ability to get up super early in the morning genes.  All this summer I have been getting to work by 8 in attempts to prepare myself and it has been painful pulling myself out of bed...now I will be up even earlier.  I need to win the lottery so I can hire myself a kid carter arounder.  Soccer also starts tomorrow.  I have never started soccer season as tired and worn out as I am now...kind of a scary thought how I might feel in 8 weeks.  I hope to survive mentally intact...we shall see.  Well I better run.  I need to get junk ready for tomorrow so that maybe I can sleep that extra 15 minutes =).  Night.

Good Daughter

My mama said that I should blog.  Apparently my sister has started a blog and she is blowing me away with her posting skills.  So, being that I try to be a good child, I will blog tonight so that my mom will be happy.

So....what to blog about. My baby turned 1 a few weeks ago. Time certainly does fly. She is so much fun. Cuddly. Happy. Sweet. Saying a bunch of words. She is big...almost 23lbs and 30 inches tall. Someone just sent me this picture today. Was taken almost exactly a year ago. Ms. Lila hanging out unhappily in her daddy's firefighter helmut. She still looks the same to this very day when she cries.

And here are a few pictures of her a week ago.  Looking at the prized walleye her daddy caught.

Being her smiley happy self....

On a mission....

She loves balls

So anyway, we went to Minnesota on vacation a week or so ago.  Had fun.

Caught fish.  Relaxed.

Staring the fish down....

The big girls caught a lot of fish....

Well that is about all I can muster for tonight.  Will try to be better about the ol' blog in the future.  Until then, good night.
