Some new hobbies of mine

Hanging out with mom doing some tummy time......

standing on dad...... And of course I seem to have found my thumb.

Mom and I have been hanging out lots lately since dad has gone back to work, so I thought I better start entertaining myself. I like hanging out on my pillow, standing up, and finding my thumb. We have been having lot of visits from Grandma and Grandpa Church and Grandma Tenley. I think they like me a little bit. This weekend Grandma and Grandpa Church are coming back to Winnipeg to help dad build a fence and of course see me. I'll let you know how that goes.

My New Best Friend

Oscar guarding me I think. (or stalking?)

Oscar and I have been hanging out a lot lately. He always wants to sniff and lick but mom and dad save me everytime. I think he likes me, but I'm just too small still for him. This weekend was a lot of fun. Grandma Tenley, Auntie Jen, Auntie Mandy, and Anne Catherine from Germany came to visit me. We went and visited Auntie Bonnie, Great Grandma Audrey, and went out to supper at the Forks and I slept through the whole supper. I want to wish Anne Catherine a happy 16th tomorrow!

No More Summer!

You know it!

This is a picture just in front of our cabin.

Chillin on the bed

Well we are back in Winnipeg after one last long weekend at the lake. Dad had to go back to work on Tuesday so I have been hanging out with mom and Oscar lots. I am missing all my family and friends and mom is missing all of her helpers. Mom says I might have been a little spoiled this summer and now I like to be held and played with all day long, but my Grandmas' say you can't spoil me:)

Tummy Time

Happy 28th Uncle Jeff

Look at me keeping my head up!

I think I like this.

It has been a peaceful week here at the Schmidt house. We have been hanging out all day together. My puppy Oscar is sick so mom and dad have been taking good care of him. I've been spending time practicing my 'Tummy Time'. Doctor Stan always says 'Back to sleep, Tummy to play, Change positions throughout the day'. I don't like being on my tummy unless I'm on my pillow, and we discovered that I like getting airplane rides from dad. I guess we're heading out to the lake for one last weekend before dad has to go back to work. I'll make sure mom and dad don't forget the camera this time. It was my Unlcle Jeff's birthday yesterday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE JEFF!

Still to small for......

I really like my excersauser......

even though I don't quite fit it.

My feet don't even touch the ground.

I came back yesterday from yet another party. My mom's cousin Josh Church had a wedding reception in Brandon and of course I was very well behaved. I got to stay in a hotel with Grandma Church, Grandpa Church, and of course mom and dad. Grandpa Church brought me my 'Excersauser' which my Grandma Schmidt bought for me a while ago but mom and dad couldn't fit in the Focus. As you can see I'm still a little too small for it, but I think that I'm going to really really like it.

Heads up!

It's up......

.....ohhh it's down. My dad still likes me.

It was another lazy day in Winnipeg today. We hung out around the house and practiced my tummy time. As you can see I can get my head up, but now for long. Oscar went to the vet and his chin is all cleared up. He was so excited to visit the vet he came afterwards and had a 2 hour nap. His snoring is getting louder everyday, but luckily I can still sleep through it.

Check up

One needle on the right leg.....

and another on the left leg. My mom made me feel better though.

Sorry again for not keeping everyone in the loop, but mom and dad decided to go up to the lake for another week. On Sunday August 19 we had to come home because I had to go for my 2 month check up on Tuesday. Now I don't know what I did to my mom and dad up until now, but when I went to see the doc he checked my ears and then gave my two needles which I absolutely hated. I cried at first but I was ok once we got out of the office. The doc also told me that I am 11 lbs and 24 inches long, right on schedule. Mom and dad are telling me that we are sticking around Winnipeg for a while, so I will let you know how things are going.

27 and 2 Months

Me celebrating with a beer!

Me feeling the beer a little bit. Passed out after the beer.

Mom taking me home from the party.

Yesterday my dad turned 27 and it was my 2 month birthday. We went over to Tamara's, one of mom and dad's friend, for a party. There were a few people there to help us celebrate. I was a great baby and didn't even throw a fit. Dad shared his beer with me and we had a awesome time. Tomorrow were thinking of heading back up to the lake, so I may not be around to let you know how things are going. It's my uncle Tannin's birthday tomorrow so before I go I want to wish him a happy birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE TANNIN!

Oscar's Birthday

Oscar as a pup

Hail from the storm in Dauphin. Dad and me

Smiling!

Sorry I've been gone for so long, but mom, dad, Oscar and I went up to the lake for a whole week. There is no TV, Radio or Internet up there, so we had some real bonding time. Dad is working lots up there, and mom is reading the new Harry Potter book to me. We're heading back up there on Monday August 13th.

While we were up at the lake on Thursday night, August 9, Dauphin got a crazy hail storm. All the cars, trees, houses, everything got smashed. We borrowed Grandma Tenley's truck to go up to the lake so our little Ford Focus got hammered.

It turns out that is my dog 1st birthday today. Oscar has made it through his first year of life, or 7 in human years. You can check out what he is up to at his blog on the side of my blog. Tomorrow is going to be a exciting day because I turn 2 months old and my dad turns 27. It's party time again! I'll let you know how is goes.

Happy Bday Mom!

There is that tongue again.

I like smiling in the morning.

Happy Birthday Mom!!!!! Mom turned 26 yesterday, Aug 1, so her and dad are the same age for ten days. We just hung out at the house, made some potato salad, and watched some movies. I guess before I came around Mom used to be quite the party animal, but now things have changed.

Last weekend Uncle Jeff and Auntie Jen got married here in Winnipeg. Both mom and dad were in the wedding party, and I was a good girl all day. I stayed up that night at the reception till 2:30 am, and then slept through the night. I guess I got my mom's party genes.

This is the first week that it has been mom, dad, Anna, and Oscar and we're loving it.
