Nana and Papa were in town for Graham's first Birthday.  One year ago we were in the hospital watching the state fair parade after having Graham.  Now we are at the parade as a family.  We were there bright and early to get a good spot and finally about noon Graham finally gave in and took a little nap on Nana's shoulder.

This was the only ride Addy was big enough for last year and she remembered it right away.  You can tell from her face that she loved it again this year.  She is my little daredevil sometimes!!

Enjoying our favorite ice cream at the NDSF.  Graham is saying give me more!!

We found a quite corner of one of the commercial buildings for Graham to get out and crawl around.  After about 5 minutes, this is what his hands looked like!!!

Another example of Addy helping her daddy.  Helping may not be the right word, more of an observer or encourager but Addy considers it help!!

Enjoying the beautiful weather this last weekend.  Graham loves the water and could play in there all day.  Addy loved running through the sprinkler.

Graham is just like his sister and loves him some tacos with black beans.  This is the face you get after he is done.  Cute enough to kiss if you don't mind a little black bean on your face!!

And of course Addy needed in on the picture action.

Addy was in a 5 week dance class and this was her recital.  She really enjoyed it, especially the tumbling.  The day of the recital I think she was a bit overwhelmed with all the people there cause she didn't start dancing until they got halfway through and were twirling and then she just kept twirling until the music stopped.  

Daddy's little helper.  He can't be in the bobcat without Addy wanting to go for a  ride.  Quite a change from a few years ago when she thought it was "scrary"!!

Everytime I get out the camera to take pictures of Graham, Addy also needs to get in on the action.  So here is Addy and her Monkey!
