7 Months Old!

Here we are dirty and 7 months old!! We are rolling over, smiling and laughing a lot and eating tons!!! We LOVE our cereal with fruits and veggies! Eli loves to munch on cheerieos or puffs, Tavan however could do without and pushes them out with his tongue. It is kind of funny!

Run, Run, Run!!!

Today was the annual Fargo Marathon. In the afternoon, they held a kid's Fun Run, and we decided to get our kids out there this time (except Jake who decided he didn't want to). Here are our two proud runners. They each ran the 1/2 mile race in their own age categories. Mommy ran with Danika, and she did very well. She ran about 1/3 of the way, and got carried the rest. She did end the race running in to the Dome yelling Boppa, Grandma, Eli and Tavan!!... She was SO proud of herself. Ryan was going to run with Daddy and at the last minute decided he was a big kid and did it himself. He says he had a good time.
Danika with her Friend Benjamin. He ran in the 5 year old category.
Here we are with our two racers...aren't they looking tired? ;)
Danika's first NON-100% juice, milk, water,etc. drink. Needless to say, she LOVED it. She had it down before we left the dome. It was a red Powerade, so not too bad. Had to take a picture of it!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!! Thank you Kurt!

Thanks to my wonderful husband. HE IS THE BEST! He gave me the best gift of all. Everyone can see it below. He and the kiddos worked hard and I think that I have watched it at least 10 times already. Thank you to all 6 of them for the best gift EVER! I LOVE YOU BUNCHES!!!

Boppa got us our first John Deere caps. However, we need to grow a bit before we will fit into them.

IPOD 3000

Jake got a chance to be an inventor. At school, he is in a group call the TLC. This group had a project where they each came up with an invention. Jake's idea was the "iPod 3000." His iPod headset has a speaker on it, and allows the listener to speak the name of the song or artist they want to hear, then the iPod figures it out and plays the song! What a neat idea. Jake had a lot of fun with the project, and really enjoyed showing off his work at the inventor's fair on Friday. Great job Jake!!
