Cousins Weekend in Bismarck!!

Amelia & I decided to take a roadtrip to Bismarck to hang out with the cousins. They have so much fun. Amelia loves Ayden & is always giving him kisses & either rubbing or patting him on the back and her & Abby fight like sisters! They always want what the other one has of course and push each other out of the way to get it & then kiss each other a couple minutes later!

The 3 Amigos!!

Did someone say "smile?"

This is me falling out of the boat!!!

We burned off some more energy at the dinosaur park at the mall...I thought daddy would think this pic was cool cuz daddy LOVES boats!

After a night of swimming we took baths, put on our PJ's, snacked on popcorn & watched Finding Nemo....wasn't long before we were all out!!

Are you getting a picture of this??!

Amelia was 'floating' all by herself for the first time!

Amelia & Abby thought it was so cool to wear the same swimsuits!!

Out sledding & ice skating

Most nights we cuddle & read books in mommy & daddy's bed before Amelia goes to her own bed. Amelia got all cuddled up with the blankets & pillows and looked at Chris & I and rubbed her hands together and said...."I like this!" This is what happened shortly there after.

All the ice skating & sledding wore me out...in mommy & daddy's bed of course!

Help me mommy!

Daddy was showing off his skating skills (a little rusty) & Amelia was scared the whole time, even watching him. She kept saying...."daddy all done." He pulled mommy & I around on a sled...that was fun!

FUN IN THE SNOW......FINALLY!

Amelia loved making the snowman with daddy after she got used to stepping in the deep snow & falling often. After they came inside she would frequently go to the window to check on the snowman & later that day the mouth & eyes were starting to fall off & she would get sad and say "snowman doesn't work" so daddy would go fix it until she was satisfied!

I think daddy may be more proud of the snowman than Amelia is.

Aren't they cute??!!

Finally a nice day to be outside & make a snowman with daddy...she had so much fun but had a fit when daddy put her scarf on the snowman so we had to make other arrangements!

never quite the smile you're looking for!
