Birthday Bash!!!!

Yesterday we celebrated Breven's first birthday with friends and family at the Forest Lake Beach. We had so much fun! It was great to just hang out and eat hot dogs and go swimming. I got a little too much sun though lol! Here are some pictures from the past week ... enjoy!

Breven decided it would be really fun to play in the dirt and pulled down the pumpkin plants

Still as flexible as ever!

Just bends right in half!

Gymnast!

30 years!

We are so thankful to have some nice weather back. We are trying to spend as much time enjoying it at we can. We are all doing well. Breven seems to be getting taller and taller every day. He will be having another check up shortly and we are excited to see how much he has grown. He is almost one! I cant believe it! Matt and I both took his birthday off and we are going to take him for a ride facing forwards for the first time whoo hoo! I will also be having my 28 week check up soon. Before we know it Kyrie will be here. She is moving so much now I have a feeling she will be a busy girl just like her brother.

On the 7th we celebrated Jeff and Laurie's 30th wedding anniversary! We met up at Khans and had some great food and fun with the family. Congratulations to them on 30 years! Here are some pictures.

Breven and Dad watching cars. He loves to look at cars driving by because he doesnt get to see many at home.

Newest arrival Gaven with Grandma Laurie

So cute! He looks a lot like Kali..

Breven ended up falling asleep, here he is napping in a booth.

Matt and I met up during our break between when I got off of work and when he was going to work for lunch and a walk at a park.

Mommy and me!

This morning Matt took Breven roller blading at the Rum River Central Park. This was Breven's first time going that fast in a stroller. He also got to play in the river and see a turtle for the first time as well. Matt was so nice to let me sleep in, and I loved it!

Come on Dad I'm ready!

wanna race?

Matt and Breven enjoyed some beautiful scenery. We will have to make another trip there.

Here is one of the turtles Breven got to see today.

Until next time .... hope all is well!
