What a strange weather day.

What a day. Little Amelie slept until noon. No kidding, 12pm! Then we got up and played, changed some diapers, and went for a walk to a cute store near my house. She was in the Baby Bjorn with her cute little bonnet when we walked to the store and people kept stopping to ask about her. It was pretty awesome. I mean, you gotta love when strangers stop you to tell you how cute your child is! The girl at the store actually told me that I made her day bringing Amelie into the store with her bonnet. I wanted to hug her.

My cousin Amanda recently graduated from high school and her grad party was today. I had to wake Ami from her nap to take her to the party so she was a bit crabby after that. That girl likes her naps! We were able to rock her to sleep in Abby's stroller for a while. When she is super tired you can tell by the look in her eyes. They get super wide and she won't blink for minutes.


I'm not sure Amelie likes being around large groups of people. Either that, or she's not a fan of her grandpa because she always seems to cry when he holds her. Just kidding, she loves Grandpa Jeff (even though he looks like Krusty the Clown here). Here is a good example of her pouty face. She sticks that bottom lip out then starts crying shortly after. She isn't an unhappy baby, but she will certainly let you know when she isn't getting what she wants.

We are all sad that auntie Tova (and Andy 'long shot" the Human) will be moving to Illinois. Happy that she's going to grad school for FREE, but still sad that she won't be around. She was bonding with Sammy today. I swear, he's like half her size.


















Another thing that I am excited about is that my cousin Kai is going to go to Eau Claire to major in Psychology. I loved UWEC and the campus is so pretty. I had a great time there and hope that he does too. I love how he is sporting the Blugold Pride.
I will definitely visit him there. It'll be great, I can see Kai, Krista/Jason/Carter, and maybe even make a stop at the Pioneer while I am there.

Tomorrow, I plan on going to Abby's to help her organize her "new" home, then Mommy Happy Hour! Hooray! I'd say it's pretty well deserved!

PS: I cannot get the song, "Dirty Diana" out of my head.
