MN Day 3 Happy Birthday!

We're still here. Extra thanks to cousin Amy who called to talk to Gabriel for his birthday. Gabriel was watching his movie in the car so he was too busy to talk much.

Happy Birthday to Gabriel and Lola (Yes, they share a birthday)

We are now the proud parents of a two year old!

Here are some pics from today. Bryan just went out with Ryan for the evening and I am exhausted so I am staying here to calm down the crazy one when he wakes up.

Today was a relaxing day. Nothing big. We had to go to the Eveleth golf course to pick of Lyndah's golf cart so that Gabriel can have his own float when he is in the parade tomorrow. He was immediately interested in driving what he called a MOW MOW. Any small wheeled vehicle is a MOW MOW. When we got home we took Gabriel out in the cart. He sat on Bryan's lap and "drove".
Henry and Lyndah decorated their Toastmaster's float for the parade. Henry will be pulling it behind his Jeep. Gabriel will follow in his golf cart.
We did not make it to Pizza Hut on time today and Gabriel was beyond hungry. He was unhappy in this picture.
After the bread sticks came, Gabriel was a happy camper again. Today Gabriel and Daddy got brand new Twins t-shirts. It's nice to go to a store and see a large selection of Twins merchandise. Gabriel now has two new Twins outfits.
After dinner it was bathtime. Gabriel was a dirty bird. The mosquitoes are quite bad here and he had been covered in bug spray for a few days. Gabriel has successfully evaded a bug bite here so far. It turns out he is allergic to bug bites. He gets a swelled huge raised red and hot rash from the tiniest little bite. We'll see how tomorrow goes since we'll be outside for a long time.

Bet you can't wait for the parade photos.
