Sorry for the long blogging break, things have been very busy here. We are trying to enjoy the last part of summer - not looking forward to the days of cold and snow again. This month my (alicia's) parents came to Iowa to visit for a week. We had a blast going to the zoo, the fair, every park in Ames and all kinds of other fun things. Andrew had a great time with them, learning new things and taking in all the fun things that we did. He is seems to be growing so fast now and has many new words, but has even more expressions. His favorite activity is still riding on the bike with Nelson, we even ride in 98 degree weather - Andrew enjoys it and we profusely sweat, what a life! We went swimming this past weekend and I will post pictures soon.

Happy 4th of July

Putting lotion on, just like mom and dad do.

4th of July

We go to a free pancake breakfast and Andrew loves the pancakes!

Look at this picture below - that was a year ago, how much Andrew has grown!Let's eat!
Watching the 4th of July parade.

Let's ride daddy!
