Summer has just flown by as you can tell by the lack on posts lately. Oliver and I got to spend a lot of time together. I earned my Masters degree this summer and I could finally enjoyed not having weekly homework which then meant Oliver and I had more time to have adventures together. I figured that I would put up the pictures we took on our adventures throughout the summer.
Below are some pictures from a few trips to the Wollerman cottage. Oliver sure loved it up there. It was his first time swimming in a lake and boy did he like it. The water was so warm this summer it felt as warm as bath water. Even I jumped in with my pregnant belly and enjoyed the relaxing weightless swim. Grandma Chris took Oliver and I for a cruise around the lake in the old row boat. Of course Oliver has a blast. He loves anything that moves and lets a breeze blow through his hair.
Below is a picture of Oliver and I. He is sitting on the same rock as I did in 1985 when I was a year and a half old. Believe it or not the boat in the background of my picture was the one Grandma Chris took us for a ride in. Time moves slow up north and not much changes. Maybe that's why I love it so much. It's always predictable and reliable.
Oliver got to go to his first parade in Winneconne. He is finally okay with fire truck sirens but his favorite part was of course the tractors.
As summer fades away and fall rolls in Oliver and I are back to our old routine. He spends Mondays through Thursday with Grandma Chris and Fridays with Grandma Katie. Grandma Katie grew a huge batch of pumpkins which Oliver would get to check up on throughout the summer. When it was time for harvesting Oliver was happy to help out. Lately when I get home from work Oliver and I head out the field to ride with Erik in the tractor. Sometimes he even gets to drive!
Time is ticking down and the doctor said that I am due any day now. I have a feeling the next post will be of our new addition!
