A Trip To The Zoo




Today we went to Brookfield Zoo with Aunt Becki, Lucy and Abbey. We had so much fun! We got to see the monkeys and gorillas, they were so cool. We showed them the silly penguin...he swam right up to us again and we laughed so hard. Here we are looking silly sticking our heads through a fish sign and brushing goats with Lucy.

Love you Aunt Becki, Lucy and Abbey!! Thanks for the penguins =)

Swedish Days Parade




This was our second Swedish Days parade...the first one was when we were just six month old and last year we had to skip it. This year, we are 2 1/2 and we TOTALLY get it and it was so cool!!!! We loved the cars, the motorcycles, the marching bands and especially the horses...when they poop!! =)

Grandma and Papa got down there extra early to reserve our spot and we sat with them, Uncle Jon, Aunt Becki, Abbey and their neighbors Patti, Elliott and their kids. We had so much fun, we can't wait until next year. Lucy was actually in the parade, marching with her dance troupe. She looked so cool. Love you cousin Goose!!

Here we are checking out the parade....it was perfect out, warm but with a great breeze..and as you can see, Larkin enjoyed some ice cream and it got all over her!






Swedish Days Fun!!





The best fire department ever...Geneva, brought all their huge firetrucks and we got to sit in them and "drive" them, it was awesome!!

Thanks for the new Crocks Aunt Becki

Yesterday Aunt Becki got us our first pair of Crocks. Mommy put the bag on the stairs to surprise us when we got home, but I had a different plan. When we got home from school, Mommy brought me upstairs first and went to get Paxson. When they came upstairs, I had somehow reached over the gate, grabbed the bag and pulled the shoes out. I was yelling "Paxson, Paxson, look, we got shoes, we got shoes!!"

Mommy took a video of Paxson in his new shoes so that he could say thank you.

Then, she took one of me...........um yeah, I wasn't really cooperating.......and you can hear Paxson crying "my shoes, my shoes" in the background. He was upset cause one fell off and he couldn't get it back on by himself.

Sorry Aunt Becki, I do love them!

Perfect 10


I started gymnastics with Mommy last Saturday and I loved it. I got this cool pink leopard print leotard. I got to do the balance beam, the bar (I even did a flip over it), sommersaults, and we finished class by playing with a big parachute. I can't wait to go next Saturday!





Just like Larkin


Why can't I have a ponytail just like my sister Larkin? Yesterday I decided I wanted one too and when Mommy tried to take it out, I threw a fit. Then when it was nap time, it fell out and I screamed my head off until someone came in my room to pick it up off the floor.

Fun at Riverfest


We met DemMia (that's what we call Auntie Dem and Mia) at St. Charles Riverfest today. It turned out to be a beautiful day. We walked along the river and saw lots of boats, ducks, puppies and other cool stuff. Daddy and Paxson went to check out the Corvettes and came back with balloons for all of us. He's so cool!!

Ready for the court


I found Daddy's Illini basketball shorts and decided to try them on. They are just a little big, but I think I could take him on the court!
