Good morning! Happy Memorial Day to all who have served and are currently serving! Last night we went to a party at Jess and Luke's to celebrate Fred who graduated from Eau Claire, Tom who graduated from pipefitters school, Paul who turns 21 this week and Peter who turns 3 today. It was a lot of fun and I think Jane really likes to go because there are so many kids to play with. On my side she just has Alyssa who is about 11 years older than her so it's nice to have so many kids on the Fohrenkamm side for her to play with. We had a lot of food, beer (soda for those who can't drink) and cake and ice cream. Now the cake and ice cream probably should have been avoided if I am trying to gain only 30 pounds but what can I say I am pregnant and like sweets.

So I have a story to share about Jane and the funny things she likes to play with. SHe has this little chair, the kind you put in the bathtub when they are big enough to sit up but not big enough to be unassisted. I think we used it when she was like 6 months maybe. Well she saw it in the basement and wanted to play with it, so we brought it upstairs and she loves to climb in and play. The only problem is she is clearly too big for it and gets stuck. I think she is finally learning how to get out but usually she just whines once she gets stuck and needs help getting out. Then as soon as she gets out, she climbs right back in. It's super annoying for a mom because she is mad if I don't let her play, but then gets mad because she can't get out on her own. Makes for a great photo though :-)
