A Day at the Zoo - in May

In May,Susie, a friend from highschool, and her son Brett came up from Seattle for the weekend. We had not seen each other in almost 2 years... On Saturday we spent the day in the back yard while our kitchen was being torn out (we are remodeling our kitchen), the kids played in the pool and us girls drank some margarittas - yum! On Sunday we went to the zoo...saw some Dinasours, Elephants, Monkeys, and Penguins.

Elmo Live!

On May 10th, Rose and her friend Daisy went to see Elmo Live at the Memorial Coliseum. The girls had so much fun seeing all their friends from Sesame Street.

Great Grandma Goltz

Last week, Mommy and Daddy took me to Edmonton to visit my Great Grandma Goltz....it was the second time I've visited her....Mommy and I went to visit her in Sept. 2007.

I was a very good girl on the airplane, and when I got to Great Grandma's house, I have her a big hug...I was very happy to see her again, although you can't tell from these pictures...I was a really tired girl.

Cousins, Cousins, and More Cousins

Last week, Andy, Rose, and I took a trip to Edmonton (Alberta, Canada) to visit my Grandma and Rosie's Great Grandma Goltz. Well, in addition to Great Grandma Goltz, there are LOTS of cousins to visit and see, 1st cousins, 2nd cousins, and 3rd cousins. Here are just a few pictures.




Too many cousins to name, and we had a bunch missing too.

Potty Time

So, we are entering a new stage in our life....potty training Rose. I have to share a cute story from today. She wanted to sit on her potty, so I put her on it and she tinkeled (aka pee'd) right away. I made a big deal about it, how wonderful it was and she did so good, what a big girl, etc. So, Rosie says, "Mommy, I try again." She sits there for about 30 seconds or so, and says, "Mommy, it's not working." She couldn't go pee-pee again. It was a cute story, I had to share.
