Stop! You must not hop on pop!

I got to spend the whole day on Saturday just me and my little man. I haven't had a chance to have some quality just mom and Adam time in long time. It was a fun day. What did we do you might ask. Well, when Adam wasn't eating, pooping, or napping, he was chasing after me with the book Hop on Pop, insisting that I read it to him. I must have read that book 50 times over the weekend. He did throw in a new book here and there, but he always came back to that book. Adam got very good at chasing me down, grabbing my legs (as if to tackle me), and then climbing on my lap. He then grabs my hand and forces the book into it, and then opens if for me. It is actually pretty cute, but after the 10th round of Hop on Pop my whole world becomes one big rhyme. Now here are some pictures of Adam's attack. Always bringing me the same book back!

Where oh where did mommy hide my book?

Mommy read this one!

I will take her down at the knees.

This is my favorite part.

Tonight we braved some chilly weather and went downtown for the holiday lights parade. Adam really enjoyed it. He got really excited when he saw the drums and the horses. He was a trooper in the cool weather, of course the all the running around he was doing helped too. The parade was pretty fun, but we didn't make it to the end. It got a little to cold for me.

Adam stayed cozy warm in the sweater that Great Grandma Iona made for him.

Adam had lots of fun running around making lots of new friends.

Happy Belated Birthday Grandpa Fried

Happy birthday to Warren! Actually his birthday was on Sunday. Because of technical difficulties it took awhile to get the video on this post to work. Anyway, Adam had a big play date on Saturday with Raleigh at dinoland in the mall. They didn't really play together, but it was fun to watch them both run around. We went to Bismarck on Saturday night to surprise Grandpa Fried for his birthday. We went swimming on Sunday. Adam had a great time in the pool and I think that Grandma and Grandpa had a great time playing as well. Here are a couple new videos for you all. The files got compressed so the picture quality is not where I would like it, but it was the only way to get them to work. Hope you enjoy!

Last night was hot dish night, which we have concluded is Adam's favorite meal!

I just paid $1.89 a gallon for gas!

Yeah for cheaper gas! Anyway, I had a very quiet weekend this past weekend. My hunters were up in Minot. Ryan was hunting for deer and Adam was hunting for trouble. From what I heard he kept Sonya pretty busy on Saturday. Since I was all alone I kept myself busy shopping with Rikki. We shopped all day Saturday and then went and watched the Bison volleyball team stomp all over Oakland. The boys made it back safely and everyone got to tag a deer. They got 9 total for the weekend. Before they left town Adam got to spend some time with great grandma Iona. Here are some pictures and video of Adam reading with grandma.

Happy Day After Halloween!

We have had some fun Halloween times these last couple nights. Thursday night we went over to a friends for supper and pumpkin carving. Halloween night we went trick or treating with Adam over to see his new cousin Greyson, and tonight we went to Josh and Shyla's annual pumpkin carving and costume party. Adam got spoiled with a couple of later nights and good candy. He also got to sport a variety of costumes.
