Happy Memorial Day

We had such a fun day today!! First, we rode in a firetruck for the parade. Lane loved it!! He had a ball yelling,"Hi!" to people and waving like crazy. Right after the parade, spur of the moment, we decided to go to the Minnesota Zoo with my parents and Kory, Melissa, and Norah. The weather was more overcast and cooler than here, so I felt a little gulity that Lane was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, but he was fine. This was the first time that either Lane or Norah has been to the zoo and they loved it!! They were soo good all day!(Amazing for 2 almost 2 year olds!!) Here are some pictures:

Lane took a short cat nap on the way to the zoo and slept all the way home. He woke up a little bit once Jason brought him into the house so he put him on the couch and here is what happened:

While we were at the firehall waiting to load up for the parade, the kids played "catch" with a tennis ball. This is Lane ready for anything:

Fox 9 News

Tuesday night, Fox 9 news had a story about the water rescue on April 11. Jason, Nate L., and Tim B. were the 3 guys in the water doing the rescue. It turned out to be a pretty neat news story. Check it out here:

What a Slacker!!

I know it has been so long since I've posted anything, but we have been busy with softball, playing outside and enjoying the great weather we've been having. So here is a quick update:

Softball is going well for Jason. He is playing on a different men's league team this year and is having a very fun time. Win or lose, He comes home and tells us how much fun it was and that is huge for Jason. Watching softball is harder for me know that Lane is all over the place. Last season he sat in his stroller and took in everything, now he is throwing balls and running after them, taking a break every now and then to see Dad hit the ball.

Grandma Kim got Lane a new outdoor climber/slide and he his loving it!! He has mastered climbing up the rope ladder and climbing up the slide.

Last night while playing outside, Lane scraped his leg then wiped out pushing Norah's toy stroller and scraped up his thumbs so it was a rough night. Don't worry, it was nothing a sucker couldn't fix!!

We bought a bike trailer and Lane loves to go on rides, my rear end is getting used to the bike seat again.

Lastly, we have some exciting news: Lane is going to be a big brother in December!! We are very happy and excited and when we ask Lane if he wants to be a big brother and if he wants a baby at our house, he always says yes! I also ask if he is going to give all of his nuks to the baby and he says yes to that also, so we'll see!
