Everett's 6 month appointment was today, and were happy to report he's a healthy little boy. Here are the stats:

Weight: 17lbs 10oz

Height: 27"

Head: 17 1/2"

All measurements land him in the 75th percentile!

Our little guy is growing up way too fast!

Baptism and Fall Pics

We had Everett baptised on October 10th, with Uncle Todd and Auntie Tanya serving as god parents. Thanks to everyone who traveled here for the event!

Fall Weekend

It was a beautiful Fall weekend in the Twin Cities, and since we know the snow will be here before we know it, we decided to take full advantage of the perfect weather.
First however, Everett gave rice cereal a try. Let's just say he's not a huge fan, but we'll keep trying.
On Saturday we went to an apple orchard in Lakeville. The weather must have taken its toll on the apple crop this year, as the pickings were a little slim. We managed to pull a few decent apples from the trees, along with an apple pie (not from the tree). On Sunday we visited Pahl's Market in Apple Valley where we selected a few pumpkins and let Emerson burn off some energy in the giant inflatable pumpkin.
Here are a few pictures of the monkeys for your viewing enjoyment:

Everett is 4 Months Old Today!!

Everett rolled over for the first time yesterday. Were Mom and Dad able to witness it......nope! Thanks a lot work! It happened at daycare when the little fella rolled from his back to his belly. We were unfortunately not able to re-create it at home however. We'll keep trying.....or not. We both kind of want to keep him at this age for a while.

Bowling!!

We took Emerson on her first bowling adventure yesterday. She absolutely loved it! It didn't matter if she knocked down one pin or 10 (which actually happened once), she was soooo excited. I think we had more fun watching her little face light up during each frame.

State Fair

Emerson spent the weekend at her grandparents in Buffalo, so we decided to take Everett to his first ever State Fair! He did great the entire day, thanks to being toted around in the Baby Bjorn with Mommy.
