Then I look at you, and the worlds alright with me.


What a lovely day. Aunt Jen and Kellen came by for a visit. They brought a bunch of food from Famous Dave which was MUCH appreciated! We really enjoyed our lunch, dinner and snack later on.

We refilled the baby pool with fresh water. Sam loved his "swim". He sat in the Bumbo seat and splashed around for quite a while. He was sporting his cool hat from Grandma Tracy. It's supposedly newborn sized, but it is clearly to big for Sam.
Amelie wasn't really digging the pool today though. Sam was wearing his Broncos jersey today and it was super cute. Bobby Riley got him the jersey, coincidentally, we saw Bobby delivering pizza tonight at Minnehaha Falls.

We went up to the falls with Ami after dinner. We strolled around and got a beer at the Sea Salt where Tyler used to work. He practically got a standing ovation when we walked in. It was nice. They admired the baby and gave us some free beer so that really turned out to be a great time. We sat outside at a table for a while to people watch and enjoy our beer. Then we walked around the bandstand where there was some live music playing and checked out the falls and the garden paths.

Ami was so well behaved while we were there. She took her pacifier like a champ and didn't cry at all. Here she is with Tyler posing in front of the Falls.



We got home and he fed her a bottle, played with her. and put her to sleep.













I'm going to gather some things for tomorrow so we can get up and go to Eau Claire for our visit with Krista in the afternoon. Amelie doesn't know it yet, but she's really excited for the trip.

Tyler is harassing me to get off the computer now so...

Yikes!

I just got home from work. Downtown is crazy on the weekends, and not good crazy. More like, everyone is crazy...and all different types of crazy. Anyways, I hate driving downtown at 3am. Everyone is drunk, no one pays attention to the lights, fights break out in the middle of the street, cars drive down the wrong way on a one way street...it's pure chaos. For this reason, I always use the Parkway. Much more pleasant. I'm so glad I get to park directly outside the back door of the building, and that I have mace.

We are celebrating Father's Day tomorrow. We were thinking of going to the Stone Arch Festival, or whatever is being celebrated on the bridge...but I think we are going to get rained out. The Steckers are coming over for a BBQ though. That'll be fun.

Now I'm going to bed. But not before sharing this uber cute photo of Amelie that Tyler sent to me while I was at work. She's wearing her very own robe. My mom got it for her at my aunts garage sale. She looks like a tiny little lady boxer. Pretty cute.

Seriously, could she be any cuter?

I have to share these photos from earlier today. Amelie has such an extensive wardrobe that I temporarily forgot about all the clothes she has hanging in our closet...that's right, we share a closet. Here are 2 outfits I had on her today. I know all moms say they have the cutest baby ever, but seriously, I do. The good thing about having a baby who spits up and drools constantly, is that you get to dress her up in several outfits per day.
It's almost enough for me to go and wake her up so I can hold her and kiss her. I know better. She hates being woken up as much as I do.

I just got home from work, it's currently 3:54am and I have to wind down a little before I can fall asleep. I am looking forward to tomorrow when I hope to go to the Minneapolis Farmers Market, then have a BBQ with my sisters and the guys.

PS: Happy Birthday to Aunt Kristy and Uncle Shawn.
