I heart Mother Nature!

We have been blessed with wonderful weather these past few days and should continue for a couple more - it has been in the 60's!  Ian was psyched to take his scooter out for a spin.  We walked to Carr Park only to find a playground still full of snow.  Ian figured out a way to make the most of it though.  We cannot wait for spring!

Ian woke up early this morning - he has been waiting for weeks for this day to come.  It's Monster Truck Show day - yay!  I love weekend mornings.  You can usually go at your own pace.  I prefer to slowly move into the morning, a rare opportunity in my life so must be taken advantage of every time:)  I walked into my room this morning and found Ian watching Phineas and Ferb - no lie this is exactly what he looked like. Aaahhhh...the life.

Amazingly we were able to get Ian down for a short nap since the Monster Truck Show took place during his nap time.  He wasn't ready to wake up until he saw I brought home french fries!  We ate a quick lunch together while Milo napped and then it was off to the show.  Ian loves his new earmuffs - all he needs now is two turntables and a microphone!

Super Bowl XLV - Packers vs. Steelers

We have had so much going on lately and hosted 2 parties in January, but once we knew the Packers were going to the Super Bowl we just had to have one more party!!  We ordered a keg of Leinenkugel's because every Sconnie knows you can't have a Packer party without the Princess...or green and yellow cupcakes:)

I couldn't find the helmet that fit Ian or Milo, but it didn't matter because Ian wanted to try and make this one fit anyway.  Ha!  Cutest Packer fans I know...

 Heather, Jonathan and Peyton came to celebrate too - I guess it's only fair since we have been cheering on the Colts the last few years:)

 Maggie even showed her support for Coach Mike McCarthy (they both attended the same college!) and the Packers!

 Milo was fascinated by Uncle Jon's beard!

 My three favorite F's:  food, football and friends!

Milo REALLY wanted a cupcake, but had to settle for some rice cereal.  Next year he will be able to tackle the cupcakes for sure!

The last quarter was a nail biter!  But we pulled it off - it was so exciting!  The only thing that could have been better was being in Green Bay to celebrate with all the other Cheeseheads:)

Solid

Milo is growing so fast - he can roll over front to back and back to front (but prefers always being on his back), he is pretty good at holding his head up, he can sit up on his own for .000034 seconds, he loves to kick and chew on his toes, but most importantly...he has sprouted 2 new teeth!!  I was so excited to actually get a picture of them - who could resist that smile?!

We figured since he is growing so fast we should stop living in denial (mostly me) and introduce him to solid foods.  So...I have prepared a cute little picture show for you below.  Enjoy!

 Hey Mom, what's up?  Just chillin' in my pod chewing on my toy.  What?  You want me to try cereal?  But why, the breast is working out just fine for me...oh, you aren't taking that away.  Whew.  Freaked me out for a second.  Sure, I'll give it a try.

 Does this bib make me look fat?  I'm just sayin' - this is a big moment for me and I want to make sure I look my best!

 I don't know - are you sure?  It looks a little bland.  You promise I am going to like it? 

 Hmmm..tasty.  A new experience, wow.  You were right - I do like this stuff.  What's that you say?  This is just the beginning?!  There is so much more on the way.  What?  Like What?

 I could get used to this - add in some pears, apples, bananas...so many possibilities.  Yum!  Why did I ever think this wasn't going to be a good thing?  Rice cereal is my new favorite (other than boob, but I figured that was a given)!

There sure is a lot left over, what am I supposed to do with that?  What, I can play in it if I want?  I thought you weren't supposed to play with your food.  I shall refrain and show I have good table manners (for now - just let me get more familiar and then watch out, I will throw it across the room - show Ian what a food fight is really like!)

Whoa - eating a few teaspoons of cereal can really wipe a person out.  I need to go to bed!
