Trick or Treat is coming...

I can't believe Halloween is right around the corner! Here is Rowan's trick or treat basket, for all the candy she will get and won't be able to eat. The only candy she really eats on occassion are M&M's, hint, hint...

Nana is making Rowan's halloween costume this year. She is going to be super cute. Guess you will have to stay tuned for the reveal of the Little Stinker!

The Blog in a Book...

Since I haven't had the time or energy to take up scrapbooking since Rowan was born, I decided to print Rowan's 1st Year in a book from the blog. My sister-in-law told me about a great website where you can transfer your blog into a book. It was a tedious and time consuming task, but I think it was well worth it. So far I have only done Rowan's 1st Year, but I think the next one will just be a family book from her 1st birthday and on. We will see. It was well worth the money and time, Rowan even enjoyed looking at it. But she isn't allowed to read it without help, I don't want it to look like her Dog Book!

Big girl in the Tub...

I have finally given Rowan freedom in the bathtub and gotten rid of the bath seat. It has come to the point where she has been trying to climb out of the seat and getting stuck in it the wrong way, so now she has the entire tub at her disposal. Now she has to learn that she can't stand in the tub, it freaks me out! It will get better, and she loves it! She loves to drink the water too, you would think she never gets anything to drink during the day.

Ball Pit...

Nana and Papa found Rowan a new toy at a rummage sale just down the court! Balls! The price was right, and since the weather isn't right for the swimming pool anymore, what better a place to put the balls! So now we have added a swimming pool full of balls to the living room! Nana and Papa were having just as much fun with the new toy as Rowan was. Why not read a book in the ball pit too! Such a multi-tasker!

Sunday Luncheon...

Today we had lunch at Karen and Doug's house with the Blodgett family. My Mom and Bill and my grandparents were in town for an extended family wedding, so we all got together on Sunday before everyone headed home.

Rowan always seems to receive a new toy or outfit whenever we stop to visit any family. This weekend she got a Mickey Mouse from Great Grandma and Great Grandpa, and a new Packer dress from Karen and Doug (they had bought her one last fall, which of course she has outgrown)!

She was quite the ham entertaining everyone. She decided to sit in her bucket of toys, was looking out the window constantly at the cars and people going by. And of course, got plenty of people to read to her. She had a blast. We enjoyed lunch and the 1st half of the Packer game and then headed home for naptime!

Lunch and the Park...

Today we had lunch at Water Street Brewery with Great Grandma Knutson, Andrea and Breyson. Then after lunch we headed to the park for a short while. It was short because it was warmer out than we thought and the kids were hot. Great Grandma didn't join us, she had plans with the neighbor at home in the afternoon. Hope to see her again next week before she heads back home to Florida!

Love this...

Rowan was dancing to this song when the Black Eyed Peas sang at the NFL kickoff party! Super cute! Wish I would have gotten a video of her dancing too!
