So much has been goin on since my last blog post. Whenever people ask me "What's new?" it is easy to reply "Nothing, how about with you?" But, as I browsed through pictures I realized that we have been quite busy living life as parents of two busy boys. As you can see, Leif has been busy enjoying fishing. On our way out to Tamarack one day, he declared he was going to catch a walleye. With the help of grandpa and grandma, he did just that. He can hardly wait to head back for a fish fry.
Leif also started T-ball. He plays for Mountain Iron Team #2 with some other friends from the neighborhood. He is on a team with one friend, and his other two friends in the neighborhood play for Mountain Iron Team #1. They shook hands after their first game and happily posed for pictures after the game. Of course, the moms bribed them - smiles now, dairy queen later.
Mikko could, quite possibly, be Leif's number one fan. He can clap, and seems to know when to clap and yell for his brother. He is now walking, or toddling, around. Here he took a break from cheering to stop and smell the flowers. I was just happy he wasn't eating them!
We have also been busy enjoying summertime festivities in the area. We partook in the Land of the Loon activities - parade watching, candy gathering and walking through the park. We stopped and enjoyed a silly bar as we got ready to leave. Mikko was the only one who didn't get his own. He got to share with mom and dad. Though, he certainly wanted Leif to share his. Then again, can you tell how much Leif enjoyed his ice cream treat???
The next few pictures are of me and my boys. The first one was taken when Leif was sitting on my lap. Mikko gets so jealous that he will push Leif away, grab at him and yell trying to get him to move it. Leif just laughs at Mikko and says "Jealous?" Then he laughs and Mikko gets more upset. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come...
