Jay's Baptism

Last Sunday (November 30th), we celebrated Jay's baptism. We had a nice service at church, which all of us kids behaved very well for, and we had a yummy dinner of lasagna that Daddy made. Lasagna is one of my favorites!

Here is Jay with Pastor Krause, Daddy, Mommy, me and his godparents- Uncle Tanner, Aunt Johanna and Uncle Jason.

Did I mention we also had a delicous cake???


One of our first family photos since the hospital. Too bad Jay slept for it.

Jay with Daddy (Kenneth Jason) and Grandpa Ryan (Kenneth John)

and here is the other Kenneth that Jay was named for, Grandpa Bremer (Kenneth John also). Don't they match nice!?!

Papa with his grandkids- on their best behavior!

Aunt Missy stayed a couple days with us after baptism. It was her first time meeting Jay. The last couple days, after Aunt Missy went back, I've been waking up in the morning asking for her. Mommy keeps reminding me that she had to go back to Mayville. Bummer! She's so much fun!


Go Comets!

A Bunch of Turkeys

Jay and I were so lucky this Thanksgiving that we were able to enjoy two nice Thanksgiving meals! Well, really just I got to have two meals. Jay had some delicious milk though. We had Thanksgiving dinner with Daddy's family. Jay slept the entire time though so we missed getting pictures there. Then we went to Papa and Grammy's house for supper and I got to play with the other little turkeys (my cousins Jacey and Morgan). We definately are a wild bunch!

Jay almost had enough of picture time but he saved some cute little smiles for us while Grammy was holding him. He just started smiling last week and he sure is a cute little turkey!

Fall = Fieldwork + Football

In order to spend some valuable time with Daddy on the weekends, I've been helping him in the field with chisel plowing.

Mommy even found these old coveralls from Grammy for me to wear out in the tractor. They used to be Aunt Missy's and Uncle Jason's. I doubt Mommy ever wore them. I think I've already outgrown them though so now it's time to hand them down to Jay for next year.

So, when Daddy doesn't have to be out in the field we spend Sundays watching football- the Vikings, of course. Daddy has taught me well how to cheer "Go, Vikes!" and also how to make the horn sound "Barooo". I have become quite the growing little girl lately so I had my last wear of the Vikings cheerleader outfit (even though the Vikings cheerleaders skirts are this short too) and have moved on to my Vikings jersey!

I like this just as much!

So far Jay has slept through all the Vikings games so I think he is going to be more of a Twins fan!

Playdates

Since Mommy is on leave from work right now, Jay and I have had a lot of fun playdates.

Uncle Brent, Aunt Lori and cousin Lily brought us supper one night and we got to play with Lily.

One day my friend Avy came over to play. We took turns wearing the pretty play shoes and sharing juice cups.



Jay's friend Hailey came to play that day too. Jay and Hailey slept through most of the playdate though. Hailey is 11 days older than Jay.

Jay also had a playdate with Hazel while I went to daycare to celebrate Sophie's birthday. Hazel is about 5 weeks older than Jay. Jay slept through most of that playdate too, until right before Hazel had to go home. Sometimes I think these playdates are more for Mommy than me and Jay!?!

Raise your hand if you filled your pants!

So Adorable!

Mommy's friend, Jessi took these first two adorable pictures of Jay. Isn't he a cutie!


thinking about smiling!

thinking about crying!

My New Little Buddy

Jay has become my new little buddy. We go just about everywhere together (except when I get to visit my friends at Erica's) and do just about everything together.

We go to visit Papa and Grammy together and share their laps for stories or rocking. I think Jay is amazed by how much bigger Papa is than him.
Jay still is in awe of Papa's size ( that's who Jay is staring at in the picture). I think he wonders if he will ever grow to be that big.

We have story time with Daddy together. Daddy looks a little tired, doesn't he?

We nap in the car together.

and we play with Jay's toys together.

2 Pumpkins, 1 Kitty and Jay

Jay really enjoyed his first Halloween. First, he and I got to dress up as pumpkins. Jay's jaundice helped him look even more like a cute little pumpkin! I got this cute shirt from Erica and Aunt Missy gave Jay the hat I'm wearing, but I liked it so much I wanted to borrow it. I even took a nap in the bat hat one day. Then for our Halloween evening, Mommy and Daddy took us to a little Halloween party at the school.

Daddy helped me with the games.

Fish pond was one of my favorites, but instead of catching fish I caught candy! Which is kind of too bad since I'm dressed as a kitty and kitties love fish!

So much fun and the night's not over yet!

I think the kitty costume suits me prrrrrfect!

Jay woke up to take atleast one picture for his first Halloween. He's trying to look like a little Halloween gangster with his bat hat.

Good Company

The past 2 weeks, we have had some nice company that have come to meet Jay. I think this has been just great! I love visitors! Here are some pictures of some of the company that have come to visit me and Jay.

Grandpa Ryan and Jay. Grandpa has been busy out in the fields but he snuck away for a little while to meet Jay.

Aunt Marie and Great-Grandma Joyce came to visit us too and snuggle with Jay for a bit. Great-Grandpa Lloyd must have been out golfing.

Jay got to meet almost all our great grandparents these past 2 weeks. Above is Jay with Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Bremer. Below is Jay with Great-Grandma Liz. Jay still needs to meet Great-Grandpa Herbert too. Grandpa Herbert is a busy guy.

Uncle Jason, Aunt Johanna, Jacey and Morgan came to visit too. Holding Jay even forced a smile out of Uncle Jason- way to go Jay! or it might have been Mama's threat to keep taking pictures until he smiled.

Me and Morgan. Don't we look like trouble makers???

Aunt Karla and Uncle Trevor have been busy with field work too but they also came for a short visit too to meet Jay.

Some friends have come to visit also. This is Jay with Brennan Flotterud. He's a bit older than Jay but I bet they'll have fun together in a couple years. Jay's friend Ethan Diercks came to visit too but Mama didn't get the camera out in time. I've been asking Mama since Ethan's visit where Ellie (Ethan's mom) is. Maybe Mama should take me to visit with her again.

Brennan's big sister, Lydia, came to visit too, which is great for me since she's my friend.
I was excited to see her.

a hug goodbye!
