Brian's First Father's Day!

Friday, June 25, 2010
Ingrid is a pretty lucky girl to have a daddy like Brian.  He is always loving her up with kisses and cuddle time.  Their favorite thing to do is Kangaroo Care, something we learned in the NICU.  Brian puts Ingrid on his chest and zips up his sweatshirt to keep her warm and snug.  Of course Brian likes to go against the norm and calls it Koala Care.  Another one of their favorites is stroller rides around the neighborhood.  They most frequently visit Minnehaha Falls.  
Besides all the fun stuff like bottles, bathtime and cuddling, Brian is a wonderful dad because he has made great sacrifices for his little girl.  You may or may not know that ever since we returned from Malawi Brian has been working extra jobs after school and now in the summer to make sure we are taken care of.  
We celebrated his first father's day at his brother and sister-in-law's house.  In fact, photo credits go to Jessica (I forgot our camera!).  Brian spent the morning with two of his other favorite people, his dad and brother, playing a much deserved game of golf.  
We love you Daddy!

Great Aunt Trinny made a special trip to Minnesota to meet Ingrid. She was a big help cooking, cleaning and rocking Ingrid (her favorite job). Our favorite was the time spent visiting with each other.







Trinny also treated Kristy to a manicure and pedicure and spoiled Ingrid with a lots of new clothes.



Good thing we made a last minute bag inspection before she left!

I'm a big girl now!

As of Tuesday, Ingrid weighs 7lbs, 10oz! We were so excited. That is two pounds in 3 weeks!



Anderson Cabin

We are blessed to have two great getaway places where Ingrid will always look forward to visiting. Memorial Day weekend we went up to the Anderson Cabin, where Ingrid's toes were dipped into the ethereal waters of Swenson Lake.
