Goings Ons

I bought an outfit in Fargo last time we were there for Danica to wear on Halloween. I was so excited about it that I had to try it on her beforehand. Lucky thing I did, there is NO WAY she is going to get in it in October! Anyways, I took some pics since I thought it was the cutest thing ever! I have since purchased a new outfit. You'll have to wait to see it. :)

Dani's Great Aunt Phyllis came for a visit from August 11th - 13th. She brought some goodies for Dani, a couple new outfits and a little chair she said Dani's Great-Great-Grandpa Ide made. So here are some pics from her visit.

I brought Daddy lunch in the "field" for the first time. The field was actually Gma and Gpa Myers' yard, but oh well...that just happen to be where we met up with him. :)

While we were there, we got this photo of Dani and Daddy in front of our new semi and trailer. The semi we got used, but the trailer in brand new and even has a push button tarp motor. Oh the life! :)

Dani and I brought Great Aunt Phyllis to Tasty Treats in Parshall for lunch. Here is Dani enjoying her cone. Hmmm...it was hot that day, so the cone was extra delicious!

The first day of harvest and Dani is out combining! When Great Aunt Phyllis went out one driveway, we left out the other. Here we are on 8/12/09. At first she was a little scared since it's so noisy, but after a while she calmed down and rode for 3 hours! Her favorite part was turning the blinker on and off, but mostly on.

Looks good Daddy!

This is up to date now with the pictures on our computer, but I have more to put on there from our camera!

6 Month Photos

On the road again

After Dani's 6 month appointment, Jeff, Danica, Gene, Eva and I all drove to Fargo to look at various semi trucks and trailers. We stopped in Minot, Rugby and then dropped Gene & Eva off at Hillsboro where they spent the night. Jeff, Dani and I stayed at the Holiday Inn in Fargo for both the nights we were there. Jeff purchased a semi and trailer the next day at a place in South Fargo. While we were there Mimi came over to see us, we went shopping with Sara, Wyatt and Eva, we made a quick trip to Bob & Ruth Farring's house in South Fargo and went out to eat with family.

Catching up on some reading during the drive

Hanging out with Gma at one of our stops

At the hotel Dani was able to have her first pool experience. Unfortunately, being tall has its downfalls and her swimsuit was really short! Ouch! Anyways, we had to put her swim diaper on the outside, cuz there was absolutely NO ROOM inside! :) Poor Dani. She was a little unsure of the whole swimming thing at first probably due to the pool being so cold, but she got into it after a while and seemed to be enjoying herself.

When we left Fargo, Jeff stayed back to drive the semi home, which was suppose to be done that day. Needless to say, the truck wasn't done until the next afternoon, but he made it home just fine. The Gene, Eva, Danica and Krista bunch had a flat tire on the interstate. Gene seemed like a tire changing pro and I just have to say that all those people that do not move to the other lane when there is somebody stopped on the shoulder are ABSOLUTELY RUDE! I cannot stand that, major pet peeve.

Jeff's Birthday and Dani's 6 Month Appointment

Jeff celebrated his 38th birthday on August 2nd. He decided to eat out at the Royal Fork for his birthday dinner. I waited to make his cake until we had more family around to help eat the cake, so that wasn't until this past weekend.

At Dani's 6 month appointment on August 4th, all was well. She is still at the top of the height chart at 27-7/8 inches and average for weight at 16.9lbs. Now she won't have to go back to the doctor until she is a year old! What a great birthday present! :( At least she won't have shots for 6 months now, that's nice.
