It's Official!

Winter is coming quickly! Snow sightings are on the rise in Minnesota. I have decided to embrace it this year. I am excited for sledding, warm sweaters, baby mittens, hot chocolate, Henry's first snow angel and much much more!

Must Have for Henry!

While wasting my lunch hour away on Pinterest, I came across this adorable little baby cowl. You can find it here on Etsy. Being from Minnesota and the fact that Winter is quickly approaching, I am currently obsessed with cowls and love the idea even more for babies! This will be in Henry's stocking come Christmas.

Fall Outings


This Fall we have done a wonderful job at getting outside and enjoying all the activities.  There is something about having a child that makes seasons/holidays so much more special and fun!


In late September, Nick's sister Steph was in town and we all went to the Johnny Appleseed Festival in Edina.  Henry was overwhelmed with happiness between the petting zoo, apple eating, dancing and face painting.  






We then took a trip to the Minnatonka Apple Orchard, but we were rained out within 20 minutes.  




The second time we lucked out,  although it was a bit colder.  Our friends Dustin, Katie and their daughter Delaney joined us!  Henry was so cute on the tractor ride.  As you can see by the smile on his face, he was having a great time.   







And of course we have been playing in all the leaves!


What is your favorite fall activity?

Fun with the Canon

I am trying my hardest to learn how to use our Canon DSLR. Any feedback/advise is welcomed! Here are some practice shots taken in our new house.

Family Shot.



Practice with lighting.



Catching a precious moment. Isn't it so funny how much babies love their reflection?

Family Photos/Polish Festival!


About a month ago, we decided to have our family photos taken at Nicollet Island Pavilion. It ended up being a beautiful day and we lucked out with the Polish Festival! Nick is Polish, which means Henry is Polish, and that's ok with me. After our photos(coming soon) we ended up spending the whole day at St. Anthony Main.


Such a cutie!

What a handsome guy.

We had a couple of Polish Beers. My first ever.

Our walk across the bridge.

Beautiful view on the way home.
