June in pictures...

As promised (or feared) here is a recap of June!

The night of my birthday, I went in to check on him before I went to bed.  I found him like this!

Yet another fever and ear infection.  Poor little guy just looks miserable!
 Daddy puts Holy Water on his head for a blessing when he doesn't feel good.  He grabbed the bottle and held it to  his head!
My good little Catholic boy!


Michael's First Haircut
June 22, 2012
Dawn's Salon in Belle Plaine by Auntie Dawn!!!
All set for my haircut!  Check out my rain gutters behind my ears!

He was bribed with chicken nuggets!  He also hated the cape, so we went au naturale!

All done!  Thank you Auntie Dawn!

The finished product!  He looks like such a little man now!


We got a new pool!


 We celebrated Daddy's Birthday and Grandma and Grandpa Polingo's Anniversary!

Michael painted a surprise picture for Daddy's birthday!
(He wasn't crazy about the paint on hs hands!)

Love this one!  He looks a little devilish though :)

Checkin' myself out in the mirror after my bath!

Michael got tubes in his ears on June 28, 2012
due to too many ear infections and antibiotics!
Trying to get his ID and allergy bands off!

Playing with a new car Papa and Nana brought me after my ear tubes were put in.
I was going to add July to this post as well, but it got too long again!
At least I'm getting better at taking pictures!
Don't fear, I'm sure a July update will soon follow!

Where does the time go?

Someone mentioned that they hadn't seen an updated post for a while.

I'll admit, I've been slacking.  You see...I got this new thing called an iPhone.  Since I got it, I barely open the laptop anymore.  It's just too easy to check facebook and email on the phone!  I finally decided that I really need to update.  Too much has happened so far this summer...

I hate to say it, and feel free to turn away now, but here come a ton of pictures...

Some from April....

You were warned!

We went to the zoo with Papa Peeps...

It was still cold in April.  It's tough to remember just how chilly now that we're at the end of July!

Papa teaching Michael how to drive the tractor!



We got Michael's first pair of shoes...

He was thrilled...can't you tell???

Michael started doing tricks with his sippy cup and eating with a fork!!!



Mommy got a day/evening away with the girls!

The 6 of us can have fun anywhere!!!  Even on a pontoon under the awning while a thunderstorm keeps us at the dock!
Hence, "the drowned rat" look I got going!

Don't ask...  (told ya, Jan!)

Michael and Mommy took Cousin Ava to the zoo!

Tough "Farm Girl" Ava!

Watching the bird show


Ava showing Michael the fish in the new coral reef!

Okay, so this is already crazy-long!

Unfortunately it only brings me to the end of May.

I'll spare you the rest until a later date.

Thanks for checking in!
Rob, Jen and Michael
