Lolly or Larry?

Josh, Jeryn, Lolly and I were on a walk yesterday afternoon in our neighborhood and Josh somehow.....we don't know how or why... referred to Lolly as Larry! It was the funniest thing. I was laughing so hard that I had tears. Most people in the Anderson Family have nicknames and now Lolly has hers, unfortunately it is nothing cool it is just Larry :-)

3 Weeks in Minnesota!

Grandpa enjoyed feeding Jeryn some carrots.

Uncle Chuck did his special "Babycise" with Jeryn. She really got a workout!

Grandma Pam gave Jeryn the most fun toy on earth....a spoon!

I got to see some good friends from my old job at Methodist. (Shilah, Janelle and Nissa)

Jeryn was a bit afraid of the lake. So, we bought her a little pool for the deck...What a hit!!

More Pics of our 3 Weeks in MN

Lolly was loving the lake as always.

These are our freinds Jeff and Heidi. They came to visit at the cabin.

Auntie Kirk and uncle Chuck enjoying some precious Jeryn time.

We found out Jeryn loves to swing at the park. She was having a great time!

35th Wedding Anniversary/Father's Day

WOW! Tom and Beth celebrated their 35th wedding anniversary on June 16th. Way to go guys! Josh and I only hope to have as wonderful a marriage as they have. What an awesome example of what marriage should be. We love you two! 

So, we decided along with Kirk and Chuck that we would give them a little party to celebrate. After Jeryn's baptism, we sent them out of the house for a few hours while we prepared. Needless to say it was quite chaotic and very funny, but we had a great time doing it. We also gave Tom his father's day gift that evening. I included a picture of him posing with it. Any guesses? He thought it was a reading light until we told him it was a light for the grill...HA! Pretty big reading light Tommy!

Jeryn's Baptism

We had Jeryn baptized in Brainerd on Father's Day. It was the kickoff to a great three weeks at home. We had a wonderful brunch put on by Josh's mom completed with a Dairy Queen cake...Mmm! Jeryn enjoyed some along with all the adults.

Weekend Shades and Ice Cream!

It was a hot weekend so we decided Dairy Queen would be a good treat. Jeryn didn't know what to think of Daddy's cone. We also tried out her sunglasses. They finally fit her little head, so we will bring them to the cabin next weekend to wear by the lake. Can't wait to get home and see everyone!!

Hey Kristi? Look familiar:)

Solids...She's not too sure about this.

These are progression shots... The first one was before. The second is her gagging on the first bite and the third is her still not really into the cereal thing. She didn't do too bad actually. I think I was able to get her to swallow 4 or 5 bites. I thought this was good for our first try:-) We will see how it goes in the upcoming days! By the time we get to MN in a couple weeks she will be eating...or should I say gagging on cereal and veggies! YAY for the big girl!

Exer..What?

Jeryn's New Exersaucer...We never knew this was even a word until we became parents. I don't think you will find it in the dictionary. But she sure likes this thing!

She's a scooter!

Jeryn has developed her own way of getting around....she scoots! It is just about the cutest thing in the world, but I really have to keep my eye on her now as she is just a scootin' everywhere! AGH! We aren't sure if she will learn to crawl since this seems to be working out pretty well for her.
