A nickel for your thoughts?

Today I taught Nic what different coins are called. Quarter, dime, nickel and penny. So I hold up a nickel and ask him, "What is this called?" And he answers, "A Nicolas!" I love that kid.

Simon is 6 months old!

Ok, seriously. Can there BE a cuter baby than this?

The good old days

Do you remember this song? Loves it!

Poor Pup

Nic and I were heading into a store today (ok, fine, it was the liquor store! Mama needs some wine tonight!) and directly next door to it is a vet clinic. As Nic and I were walking through the parking lot, I could see a man, a woman (the dogs parents I believe) and two vet techs very carefully pick up an obviously hurting and shaky black lab and set it carefully onto a stretcher. I am not sure what was wrong with the poor dog but the sight of this made me break into tears. It's hard to have a sick or hurting pet. It is horrible and sad and I hope their dog is ok.

Ohh....the cuteness!!

Simon has two little itty bitty teeth! And an adorable smiley face that I just want to smother with kisses!

Say as I say

So, I pulled into a parking lot the other day. Got a nice close spot. From the backseat Nic says "That's rockstar parking!" he he he

Run Nic Run

Here is the video of Nic running the bases at the Twins Game. It is a little shaky, so vomiters beware.

Our little Twin's fan

We took Nicolas to the Twin's game last Sunday and he had a blast! We were even "wiener winners"! That has never happened to us before! We stayed for the whole game and then afterwards Nic was able to run the bases. I do have a little video of that too that I will post. It's so funny. He just looks so small next to all those big running kids.

We had taken him to a game another time when he was 9 months old so I posted both pics. Wow! He is so BIG now! I think I am getting a little choked up! :)
