Hey everyone, just thought that I would give everyone a heads up on me. Friday morning I woke up breathing irratic and weezing so mommy called all my friends who were supposed to come over that day and she took me to the doctors. They said that I had croup. :( I got a steroid shot in my leg, a breathing treatment and then they prescribed something called Orapred to help keep my lungs from being inflamed. Friday was the worst day for this viral infection. By Saturday morning I was feeling better and sounded better so mommy and daddy decided to head to the lake for one last swimming weekend. We had lots of fun swimming at Captin Rons and plaing in the sand oh, and hearing all about Poppie & Gigi's trip to Egypt.
Anyway, things are getting back to normal and I know just look like I have a cold with a runny nose. This weekend is going to be a slow one with us just hanging out at home. Hope you all have a great week and weekend.

Forest Park Hot Air Baloon show 2007
Hey everyone,
Well, I'm a little slow, but on Saturday the 15th (my 20 month birthday), mommy, daddy and I went down to Forest park to spend a day outside in the beautiful weather and enjoy about 50 -75 hot air balloons set off. I wasn't to interested in all the air balloons but I sure did enjoy being able to explore everything.
Anyway, check out my video clip, and look for my next post. Oh, and don't forget to send a comment my way at the bottom of this entry.

I have more teeth!
Well it's official. I'm been knawing on teethers for about 3 weeks and I thought for the longest time that it was for nothing but then last week they both broke through. I know have my left upper and lower cuspid's. That makes my grand total 14. WooHoo, just 6 more to go.
Last week (Sept. 4-9)my grandma was here to visit while daddy was up in Chicago on business and we had a great time. I always enjoy spending time with my Grandma!
Oh, I almost forgot that we got a call yesterday afternoon that Poppie & Gigi are back in the U.S.A. after spending 3 weeks or more over in Egypt. I can't wait to see them and hear about all the things that they saw. :)
Well, today is the hot air balloon show in Forest Park so Daddy, Mommy and I are going after lunch I hear. I'll post pictures of the event just as soon as I can. Should be a lot of fun.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that mommy gave me my first hair cut at home on Thursday. It went really well and I was such a good boy for her. :) Then on Friday my girlfriend Olivia and her mommy Cassie came over for a few hours and we had so much fun.
Well, I guess that's about it for me. I'll post pictures soon.

1,868 miles later!
Well, 1,868 miles later vacation is over and we had a great time. We started our trip Saturday the 25th of August and arrived in Prior Lake, MN. Saturday late afternoon to visit my daddy's cousin Pam and her two boys Ben and Dane. We had a great time visiting them, playing on their trampoline and down at the playground. Mommy said they had fun playing the card game after I went to sleep too. Sunday we got up and Pam showed us around town. We got to visit all the schools that the boys have either been to or are going to go to and we just hung around chatting. It was great to finally meet them and I'm sure mommy and daddy enjoyed themselves as well. :)
Sunday afternoon we headed to Minneapolis, MN where I got to visit the Mall of America. My reaction: WOW. It was so cool, they have roller coasters, lego land, an aquarium, mini put-put,carousel, and this really neat restraunt called The Rainforest Cafe. Anyway, our fist day in Minneapolis we walked around the mall, visited Poppi & Gigi's house that they had built up there, then headed back to the hotel room. We swam every day and I've become even more of a water bug. :) On Monday, we visited the zoo at Como Park and saw lots of neat animals. We also stopped at Minnehaha Falls for a short walk. Then we visited another level (2 of 4) of the mall and we had dinner at The Rainforest Cafe. Tuesday was our last day in Minneapolis so we started the morning off by going to the malls aquarium and BOY was that cool, we got to walk through a 300 foot tunnel filled with all kinds of fish and sharks, then we got to see a baby shark that had started comming out of its shell and I got to pet some fish. We had lots of fun there and would recommend that aquarium to anyone in the area. After the aquarium, we headed back to the amusement park within the mall and I got to ride some rides. My favorite ride was the truck. I was able to honk the horn and drive the truck. When the ride was over I surely didn't want to leave. On our way out of town heading further north to Duluth, we stopped by to see the bridge that had collapsed and said a prayer for all those that died in the tragedy.
By Wednesday early afternoon we were up north in Duluth and I was slipping my toes into the sand of Lake Superior. I loved the sand, but the water was a little cool. Since mommy and daddy forgot my sand toys I made due with what I had and used my shoes as sand toys. Mom was very thankful that all the sand came out easily from my shoes. We also walked along the shore and enjoyed all the sailboats that would come through after the bridge would raise. Thursday we headed up the north shore and did some hiking, we visited some waterfalls and just enjoyed the scenery. We also stopped at a lighthouse called Split Rock and we got to go all they way up into it. It was pretty cool. On Friday, the plan was to go back to the beach, however our high was 68 and the wind was comming off of the lake so it was a pretty cool and windy day so we laid low, went to the pool of course, and then mommy got so tired of the hotel and staying inside that we bundled up and headed back to the shore. We had a great dinner at one of the local restraunts and then got to visit some of the BIG boats that were on shore.
Saturday we started back on our 13 hour drive back home. We made a stop in Eau Claire, WI to visit my Great Grandma. She was very nice and I liked her a lot. I even gave her a big kiss and hug right away (I think she was pretty fond of me too). We had lunch with Great Grandma, and stopped by to see her sister Ginny (who isn't doing too good) and after a few hours we were back on the road again, with no other sites to visit until we got home. We stopped in some little town in Iowa to get a hotel late Saturday night and then were back on the road Sunday. We ended up getting home around 4:30 Sunday afternoon, and I just couldnt wait to play with all of my toys. :)
All and all we had a great vacation. I did so awesome in the car, better than mommy and daddy could have imagined. I also slept through every night with the exception of one night and only cried about an hour all total in the entire trip. :) What can I say. I'm a cool kid who likes to spend time with mommy and daddy and thought that I would be good for them. :)
Anyway, so the next big thing, daddy leaves Tuesday morning for a week in Chicago on business and Grandma comes into town Tuesday evening to spend about a week with mommy and I. Poppy and Gigi are still exploring Egypt and aren't expected back in town for another week or so, so no news from them lately, but we are always thinking and praying for them.
Thanks for reading my blog, sorry it's so long, but had lots to say this time. Until next time.
