Wibaux County Fair

We hit the road again to check out Wibaux County Fair. It was my first petting zoo experience. I was a little nervous especially when my dad set me down on that "big puppy!"
Being brave right from the start
It feels so soft
I think they like me
After checking out all the animals, Bo and I needed a sno cone
This is pretty darn good, I think I will have some more

Just me

It seems like everything I do these days mom says, "I need a picture of that." It is tough being so darn cute, but hey what do you say when you look like me.


Playing with my teething tablets
They make my teeth feel oh so good
In my very own sandbox, built by my dad
Hanging out in my favorite outfit, just my diaper

Swinging and Sliding

In May I was able to check out a playground at home and a playground in Wibaux when all my family came to town. Bo does not think I am very fun yet, I keep telling her just wait til next year.

Bo showing me the ropes again
Nanna didn't think I was ready to go by myself
I was sure having a good time
I think I like to swing but on the way back it sure makes my tummy feel weird
Bo was teaching me how to pump my legs to go higher and higher

Sittin up is hard to do

At Grandma and Grandpa Barthel's learning how to sit up with a little pink back up
Look at me- I am starting to do pretty good
I think I have this sitting up thing down, but not a bad idea to have a soft cushion just in case
I think I may skip basketball and hit the drums instead
All that sitting up and I have to take a rest- it's hard work for a little man

My first Easter

My first Easter was spent in Wibaux, MT with my family. I was so excited Easter morning, I woke my mom up very very early to go find my basket. Cousin Bo did help me a little this year, but I told her watch out next year becuase I will not be sitting by anymore.

Papa, Jace, and Cousin Bo
Here I am again- pretty darn cute- don't ya think
Bo Marie showing me how to find the hidden eggs
Of course sometimes they are right in front of you

Baptism

I was baptized February 17, 2007 at Corpus Christi in Bismarck, ND. I was very lucky to have my family travel to come be with me on my very special day.

My favorite aunts

Here comes my dad's sisters, they sure were very very happy to see boy, although they said they would have loved me just as much if I was a girl.

Aunt Melanie

Aunt Melissa (Missy)
"I hope she does not cry every time she sees me."

Aunt Michelle

She must have decided it's not that bad
that I look just like my dad.
