Busy Jan... catch up...

I am going to start with New Years and go from there... we babysat for Allie and Zoey on new years eve and I discovered why Amy and Matt are tired... I love those two little girls but man do they keep you busy!!

Here is Zoey showing how well she can climb in and out of the pack and play... so from now on she can sleep on the air mattress... This kept her entertained for quite a while!

Miss Allie was sweet for the most part. She woke up quite a often for her nuk... but shes a sweetie anyway!


Of course before we went to take the girls home Zoey had to brush her teeth...


Then we went to Mankato to visit with Nora and Henry... That was lots of fun too... Here is Nora with her new pig...


And I think here she was explaining something to me... she always has a great explanation...
Pictures of Henry... he was either asleep or the few we got didn't turn out very well... so no Henry this time from me but here is one I stole from Joe... apparently H-man is going to be a skier!
Then we babysat the boys a few times... but I didn't get any good pictures of them... we do have one of the boys in the shower but we won't put that here...
Last weekend I went out with my partner at work and a few other wonderful people... we had a blast and i realized that I do like going to listen to live music and hang out with friends

I really was having way more fun than I look like in the pictures!

Since we hadn't seen the girls in a while Amy, Allie, Zoey and Matt came over. Amy and the girls and I visited while Matt took a nap...


Zoey learned how to make "Cheese cookies" like her mommy used to...You take a piece of cheese and use this little cookie cutter to cut shape in a piece of cheese... the adults eat the out side and the kid eats the little Cookies... She enjoyed this fun activity and now Amy and Matt will have to buy her lots more cheese...Meanwhile Allie showed off her new tricks... like blowing bubbles and doing raspberries, sitting up and playing with her feet... yep she is 6 months old...


After visiting with the Klein's Larry and i headed down to Cannon Falls to see Deb and Glenn. We ate a delicious dinner of the Salmon that we got in Alaska... and played so cards... Larry and Deb beat Glenn and i in all three games ... sorry Glenn... but it was lots of fun...
Then it was on to the Kitty Kat Klub in Dinkytown... no it is NOT a strip club... we met up with Jed and the rest of the family as well as the Donohoes to hear the new music sensations Claps.. The band had the release of their first CD... Jed, Pat and Sara were fantastic.
Here are some pictures of us chilling with a few drinks before we listened to our main event...

And finally the reason we were there... CLAPS
