Bruno’s 90th Birthday Party

Bruno’s 90th Birthday Party

Missy’s grand­par­ents Bruno and Louise Ollie cel­e­brated their 90th birth­days this year, so the Ollie clan from Idaho/Wyoming and the Warps came together for a big bash. Gus got some bare tush time at the lake and every­one was well fed. A few pic­tures also from swim­ming in Lake Supe­rior and Gus takes to the […]

April May June 2011

Time has flown by and no new pic­tures, so here are the last three months worth, and only from iPhone as it’s all I have access to at the moment.

Around the house

Around the house

Gus has learned to fear the vac­uum cleaner and love his high chair. He’s moved on from the baby bath­tub and is now splash­ing freely in the big tub and is climb­ing all about. Has made it to the sec­ond stair (trou­ble) and loves to pull books off the shelf (not read­ing them yet though). […]

Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Milwaukee, Wisconsin

We’re back in the upper Mid­west for a long week­end to cel­e­brate the wed­ding of my good col­lege buddy Josh “Strut­ter” Gor­don in Chicago. Only a few hours north is Mil­wau­kee, or actu­ally Pewau­kee where Missy’s sis­ter Kim and her fam­ily lives, so we made a bit extra drive to see them for a few […]

Gus the Musician

Gus the Musician

Gus is on the verge of crawl­ing, and each day teaches us some­thing new about par­ent­ing. Third tooth is pok­ing through.…just a few pho­tos from the past few weeks on the iPhone. New big-boy car seat, jump­ing, bathing, gro­cery shopping…all the famil­iar baby stuff.

Josephine DeMatteo 1922–2011

Just a few months after my Grand­fa­ther Sam passed away, my grand­mother fol­lowed him this week. After a good fight against Alzheimers, she went peace­fully with fam­ily sur­round­ing her and hos­pice care keep­ing her com­fort­able. We were all hav­ing a nice meal together, which is exactly what she would have wished for us. She taught […]

Cross Country Skiing w/Gus

Cross Country Skiing w/Gus

So today we took a day trip to Duluth, MN to see some friends and decided to take advan­tage of the great snow and warmish weather (almost 30 degrees) and try tak­ing Gus in a back­pack loaned to us. Gus took to it like a champ, and bun­dled up in his new snow suit, enjoyed […]

Gus Meets Snow

Gus Meets Snow

Sandi and John bought Gus his first two snow appa­rati this week here in Min­nesota. 1. A snow suit, and 2. a sled. So we put them together for a lit­tle jaunt in the yard. Gus seemed mildly amused, but no com­plaints. Hop­ing he’ll be ready for cross coun­try skis next win­ter. The end result […]

Fall 2010 — Busy Times

Fall 2010 — Busy Times

It’s been a busy fall with school back up and run­ning, not enough sleep and rais­ing Gus to be a good boy. He’s super fun, and has started laugh­ing hysterically…like his mama. Check out the Audio­boos below to hear some of that laugh­ter. We’ve seen the doc twice for shots (oh the scream­ing) and had […]

Back in Kentucky

Back in Kentucky

After a won­der­ful sum­mer on the road with Gus to Min­nesota, Vir­ginia and North Car­olina we arrived back in BG just 10 days before school starts now in a week.  Busy get­ting back into the swing of things and get­ting Gus adjusted to his day care at the Montes­sori school.  He’s doing well, so his […]
