We had a little birthday gathering with a few close friends and family the weekend before his actual birthday and on the actual day, Steve took the day off of work and all four of us spent the morning at the MN Zoo! Frankie was well loved for his birthday and thoroughly enjoyed his party. He is turning into such a big boy!<br />
<br />
Here are few tidbits into what he is into these days:<br />
- Loves trains! He helps build the track and then can spend hours playing with the trains.<br />
- Loves tractors and trucks!<br />
- Can speak in 3-5 work sentances<br />
- Knows the words to "Happy Birthday", "Row Row Row Your Boat", and "Ring Around The Rosy"<br />
- Favorite Song: Hooked On A Feeling "The Oogy Chaka" song<br />
- Lion King is the current movie of choice - we have gone through a Frozen, Finding Nemo and a Happy Feet phase in the past 6 months<br />
- Has been talking about using the potty!<br />
- Still a book fiend! Moving past the board books to books with more words<br />
- If he can be outside he is at his happiest - especially at the park going down the slide<br />
- Tacos are his favorite food after anything breakfast<br />
- Frequently picks his Aaron Rogers jersey to wear (which melts his Dad's heart)<br />
- Tells his Dad "Pack Go" frequently (again melts his Dad's heart)<br />
- He is the biggest sweetheart<br />
- LOVES to give kisses to his sister<br />
<br />
Steve and I are in awe at how he is turning into such a little boy! Our baby is growing up and we are very proud of him. It will be a crazy ride to see how year 3 goes...wish us luck!!<br />

We did maternity photos, newborn photos, and we had her take photos of Frankie for his 2nd birthday. With all the sessions with Jackie, Frankie knew who she was and was comfortable for the session. Jackie truly captured Frankie's personality in these photos and I am so thrilled with how they turned out!! Here are a few favorites: <div>

My last post was in October...and now February of 2015 is coming to an end!!!!!!!! I promise that we are all doing well and, other than a week or two with nasty colds, we have been healthy.<br />
<br />
I won't lie, it has been a crazy few months. And thinking back on this, as I am snuggled in bed watching Hallmark movies (don't judge), can't believe at all that has happened. Here is a quick (or as quick as it can be for 3+ months of happenings) recap with a few photos:<br />
<br />
<br />
- Frankie and I traveled to SD to visit the farm and his great-grandpa. We went with Grandma & Grandpa Herrmann and my brother and his two kids joined in the fun. It was a weekend to work the cattle and Frankie and I assisted by having the table set for lunch or dinner and the food ready to go. All the others (even Brody & Sophie) were out helping with the cattle. Frankie enjoyed being on the farm and exploring via foot or on the 4-wheeler.<br />

- Halloween! It was cold. We didn't take babe trick-or-treating but managed to capture a few photos of our pirate. I will admit that we didn't even get him a costume! The pirate hat was a birthday gift for him. Next year he will be at a better age to get a costume and enjoy the evening.<br />

- Wedding time! Frankie and I were blessed to be a part of the wedding of two people that are extremely important to us: Heather & Dan! The day went off with one hitch *wink*. And Frankie was a trooper. The day wasn't a shining moment for how happy of a babe he usually is but everyone was so incredibly understanding, even with the tears and screams.<br />

- Thanksgiving came without much excitement this year. We stayed home since neither Steve nor I had additional vacation to spare for additional days and it was nice. It was low-key except that we found out we were pregnant! Baby #2 decided to surprise us but no one knew except us for a while. It was a hard secret to keep!<br />

- December was filled with the hubby kindly putting up a few Christmas decorations and fun times with friends. We were minimalists when it came to decorations this year and I was okay with that. Usually I am all about Christmas decorations, but I had limited to no energy for that with Baby #2 growing and the less that Frankie could potentially destroy the better. Frankie did get to meet Santa. I was impressed that we didn't have screams or tears in the photo! There was a Polar Bear too, I think he enjoyed the bear more than Santa.<br />

- The Christmas holidays were fun and Frankie kind of figured out opening his gifts which was entertaining. We told our parents over the holidays about Baby #2 and they were more than thrilled! It was fun to finally share our excitement with others. I didn't take too many photos for the holidays but we had a fun time! I spent much of my time off in between Christmas and New Year's organizing and cleaning our house which is as exciting as it sounds (I did manage a few naps in there too). We had a cranky Frankie for New Year's so I went over to a friends house and saw some wonderful people that I hadn't seen in ages! It was fun and I was home early enough to still be in bed and asleep by 10PM - that is the life of a pregnant woman.<br />

- January flew by with getting ready for our house to go on the market. HUGE step for us since I don't do well change (especially big change). Keeping a house clean and picked up with a toddler and pup is a bit challenging, but we managed. We got to see Baby #2 in January! I always love ultrasounds - they are just so amazing to see the little human growing inside of you.<br />

- February! The month of love! Steve and I celebrated one of the few anniversaries we remember: our first date. It was Valentine's Day eons ago! So we re-watched the movie we saw and it still makes us both smile and laugh. Thankfully, someone decided they loved our house and gave us an offer! We were thrilled! It was getting so hard to plan/prepare for anything not knowing how long the house was going to be on the market or when showings were going to happen. Once it sold, we spent a crazy week looking at houses and trying to find our next home. Which we did! And are in the process of getting it all figured out. Prayers that it continues to go smoothly.<br />

Oofta! If you made it this far, I am impressed!!! March is a couple days away and we are approaching the halfway point of this pregnancy which means we will finally know the gender of our sweet baby #2! I can't wait. :-)<br />
<br />
I keep saying I am going to be better about updating this but with moving and another baby coming, I won't make any promises. If I don't get back here for a while, hope life treats you well!<br />
<br />
Much love to all. <br />

Frankie is now walking and getting steadier by the day. The jibber jabbering is constant and you can occasionally catch a word or two. He is continuing to get better at signing for different things (especially food items) which is exciting. Outside is his favorite! We already have our winter gear purchased since I anticipate him loving being outside in the snow with Kirby. </div>

If you couldn't guess, we signed the boy up for swimming lessons. As is his attitude towards most things that involve moving he absolutely loves it. As you can imagine a baby swimming class includes a vast array of strokes and technique. We are currently working on "scoops", "monkey cheeks", and submerging his face under water. Many of the babies in the class are not nearly as fond of this activity as Frank. Hopefully this positive attitude continues as we progress in the various activities.<br />

Like any parent with a one year old, we wanted to celebrate that <strike>we made it</strike> Frankie turned 1! That first year is full of so many firsts for both baby and parents so naturally we wanted to commemorate our survival with a gathering with family and friends.<br />
<br />
The day turned our wonderful and my makeshift decorations fit the scene perfectly. I will share that going through photos from the past year and narrowing it down to only a few was REALLY hard! Steve can attest to my struggle of wanting to print hundreds of photos and we managed to get down to much less than that. Not sure how I am going to make a photo book that is less than 100 pages...<br />
<br />
We had a great day and Frankie even liked his cake. It is crazy how fast a year can go...enjoy a few snap-shots from the party.<br />

She does such a fantastic job! I can't say enough good things about working with Jackie!<br />

Here a few of the MANY fabulous photos that Jackie Boldt of Live & Love Studios took of Frankie and our family for his 1st birthday!<br />

I realize that this is BEYOND late - like 2+ months late. But I want you to know that I have had this little piece written the whole time! Here is the long over-due post. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

My baby boy is one! Holy cow did that year fly by! As I was getting ready for his little birthday bash, I started looking through photos from the past year – we had a great year! We had a whole lot of firsts, lots of smiles and giggles, some of the best time with family and friends, and many special times together as our little family. It was really hard for me to not print hundreds of photos! Each one brought back really special memories. I am thankful that I have all those photos since memories can fade but those moments captured with a photo I can look back on and stir that memory back up. Now on to making a photo book...wish me luck!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This past month (similar to most months) was a whirlwind. We were getting ready for our little dude’s party as well as keep up with day-to-day activities. Frankie is always on the move. We got our fireplace “Frankie proofed” and it is one of his favorite things to climb up and down from the bench. This has helped him figure out how to climb off of things which has translated into figuring out how to go down stairs. He is still not super confident in it but I know it will come. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Walking is still only done along furniture or holding on to someone but I am totally okay with that. Once he figures out how to walk on his own, we will be sprinting after him! Slowly Frankie is taking to eating more variety of “real food” (i.e. not pureed) which has come as a nice relief for us and a more enjoyable time for Kirby. Kirby usually enjoys portions of Frankie’s food since Frankie likes to share.</div>

It was a great family affair, although, Dustin, Eric's brother and best man, was unable to get away from his duties in the Navy for the weekend. He was there in spirit!<br />
<br />
It was a beautiful day and we all had a wonderful time catching up with family that we don't get to see very often. Here are a few family photos we were able to grab - we didn't get the opportunity to have a photo with the Bride and Groom prior to us leaving to get Frankie down for the night.<br />
<br />
All the best to Eric and Lauren as they begin this new adventure together!<br />

Omaha! Omaha!Steve and I were not too sure on how a 6-7 hour drive was going to go for the little one when we set out on our way to Nebraska. We tried to be optimistic but knew very well that it could be a really long day in the car. Should I mention that we had only just switched from our carrier car seat to the convertible car seat just that week? Smooth move on our part... However, despite a few torrential downpours in Iowa and a couple unhappy hours from Frank, we made it to Omaha unscathed.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Luckily we were able to promptly check into our hotel room and let the little dude crawl around before we had to hop into the car once more. This time we were off to my cousin's house to see the family! The whole trip to Omaha was to celebrate the marriage of my cousin, Sarah, to Marcus. They went to Las Vegas earlier in the year and got married so it was time to celebrate! At my cousin Bryanne's house, the Herrmann family was congregating for some face time. It is unfortunate but we don't get to see that side of the family very often so when we do get together, we try to make the most of it. Nancy and Kelly were home from China and rented a bounce house for all the kids which was a hit! All the kids loved it, even Frankie had his time in it. After he was done eating dinner, he made a bee-line from the patio to the bounce house. He clearly felt it wasn't fair that all the other kids had been bouncing around in there and he wanted his turn. It was a great gathering and fun to see everyone! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The next day, after an early wake up from Frankie, most of the family decided to head to the Omaha Zoo. Frankie loved it! All the kids loved it for that matter. There were lots of animals to see, a carousel to ride, camels to ride, stingrays to touch, and so much more. Even the parents and grandparents had an enjoyable time. Frankie had a stare down with a gorilla and loved the aquarium. We played musical strollers with all the kiddos especially Miss Sophie, she would snatch up an open seat in an instant. :-)<br />
<br />
Our time at the zoo was short-lived due to nap times (for both babes and parents). Frankie snoozed while we were at the zoo so we took him for a swim in the pool to expend some of his energy before putting him down. It worked like a charm! He was hesitant of the water at first but quickly warmed up to it.<br />
<br />
The evening was full of celebrating Marcus & Sarah. I managed to sneak in a few photos of the family and I can't wait to see the full family photos that the photographer took! We didn't make it too long into the event due to the little dude getting tired but we enjoyed the time that we were there. Family is always fun and crazy to be around.<br />
<br />
The ride home was quiet since the little dude went with Grandma and Grandpa to spend a few days in Marshall. Here's to hoping the next family gathering isn't too far away!<br />

We have been keeping busy this summer which is causing me to constantly play catch up with blogging, cleaning, sleeping, etc.<br />
<br />
Here is a quick recap of Frankie's progression to 11 months:<br />
<br />
- Walking along furniture<br />
- Standing without help<br />
- Constantly moving<br />
- Throwing balls for Kirby<br />
- Likes giving kisses (although you need to be careful that he doesn't bite your nose...)<br />
- Dumping out blocks/elephants/balls/etc. and then putting them back into the bucket/container/etc.<br />
- LOVING blueberries, raspberries, and Cheerios<br />
- Becoming more willing to try new foods (especially whatever Mom or Dad is eating)<br />
- 5 teeth with the sixth on the way<br />
- Was an all-star for his first hair cut<br />
- Can be quite the chatty Cathy<br />
- Enjoyed a few days with Grandma H in Marshall sans Mom and Dad (we have only heard good things about his stay!)<br />
- Took him to the Omaha Zoo and he couldn't get enough of the aquarium<br />
- He has quickened his crawling pace from fast to motoring - if you don't pay attention he is at Kirby's water dish in a flash!<br />
- Participated in the Maple Grove Days Diaper Derby and came in 2nd. He was too enchanted with the little girl next to him to crawl toward Mama. :-)<br />
- We have been able to spend a few different weekends with family and he loves playing with his cousins<br />
<br />

Steve and I had quite the time trying to get Frankie to sit, look at the camera, not grab/eat/throw the picture frame, and smile. We got 2 photos like that...I included a few of the outtakes just because. :-)<br />

Steve's first father's day did not go as planned. We originally going to spend the day at Art on the Lake in Excelsior and then boating on the lake with some wonderful friends, however, Mother Nature had other plans. Due to the rain and not so summery weather, we ended up spending the day in Mound with Steve's parents and it was still a great day! Steve and I were offered babysitting services for a few hours; naturally, we took advantage. We went to a movie in Excelsior and I managed to get in a little shopping. :-) He wasn't as excited since it was Father's Day and everything but he survived, barely. </div>

Below you can see my attempt at beginning a Father's Day tradition of matching shirts, however, shortly before these photos were shot, Frankie spit up all over Steve. I was so bummed!! I managed to get these few shots before Steve changed and they are pretty cute so I can't complain too much. </div>

I am a little behind on photos and stories...) Frankie and I made the trip to Marshall. We were looking forward to a weekend with my parents and my both my brothers and their kids. It was a full house!<br />
<br />
I am so thankful that Frankie does well in the car since the normal 2.5-3 hour drive to Marshall took 4 hours! In certain spots, the roads were like ice rinks. I was happy to be driving the truck in case anything should have happened. Nothing did and we made it safely to Marshall - Frankie didn't wake up until we were driving into town! That extra hour could have been bad if he was awake and unhappy.<br />
<br />
The entire weekend was a great time for all the kids to spend time together. Frankie enjoyed his cousins and when the boys went out for their banquet he enjoyed his girl time. :-) He wasn't quite crawling at this point (which is hard to remember since he is cruising around now) but the girls were trying to help teach him. Sophie liked to help take care of him and love him up! She was even a great helper with diaper changes.<br />
<br />
Us girls did manage to sneak out and do a little shopping since we would be hanging with all the kiddos on Saturday night. But it didn't last too long before we were summoned back...not sure the exact reason we needed to come home since no one was having a meltdown but we kindly obliged.<br />
<br />
It was a quick weekend home but well worth it - something about going home is just so nice. If only we could make it happen more frequently. I also managed to survive the nights with just me - Frankie cooperated fairly well but I was thankful to return home and have a partner for those middle of the night bouts of unhappiness.<br />

As I have been re-tracing and re-remembering events and photos it continues to amaze me with how quickly time is moving. And how quickly our little dude is growing. Many of these photos are from just a few short months ago when standing and crawling were so new. Now we are chasing as the little dude cruises easily toward Kirby's water dish or any other item he was to explore. Here is a flashback to wonderful moments from the past few months - I will now try to be more regular in posting photos and stories. With summer upon us and many exciting events taking place, I ensure you that my camera/phone will be close at hand. </div>

Our little dude has 3 teeth and more coming. The past few days have been rough on the teething front and hopefully this next one pops through soon. It is not fun seeing my little man so uncomfortable.<br />
<br />
Frankie has developed such mischievous tendencies: always going for Kirby's water dish, the stairs, the carbon monoxide detector and the blinds on the patio to just name a few. This week Steve and Jim got the fabric put on the fireplace and as soon as he could, Frankie was climbing on it! He is quite quick on the stairs as well - after one day of finally showing interest in them, we had to put the gates up since he was getting too quick.<br />
<br />
We have explored the world of water tables and both boys love it. Frankie loves splashing and Kirby loves his new giant water dish. On warm days/evenings, it is a great escape for both boys. When we aren't spending the evening at the water table, we tend to get out for nice walks (or runs). I have been adventuresome in trying to go running with both boys - it has been a learning experience to say the least but also fun to get out there with both of my boys.<br />
<br />
In other news, Frankie is slowly becoming more willing to try new foods. Graham crackers are a favorite, along with Cheerios and raspberries/strawberries.<br />
<br />
At the beginning I mentioned talking, I use that term loosely. He talks but it is still mostly babbling. For a while he favorite was "ma-ma" which totally melted my heart but then after a few days we move onto a new sound. Don't worry, "da-da" has been spoken fairly frequently too but so far these have only lasted a few days before he tries to conquer a new sound.<br />
<br />
Steve and I couldn't be more excited with how our little dude is growing (and he is getting long!) and learning. Crazy that it has almost been a year since he made his grand entrance!<br />
<br />
Our photo sessions are getting harder and more involved, it takes at least 2 of us and Kirby to get smiles and good photos. Not sure how next month is going to go!<br />

She is so willing to help when we are in need and since May is crazy plus Steve had a training out of town, Mom to the rescue! It was nice to have her here since I was starting on my late nights and plus she got some quality Frankie time (as well as a little time over with the twins!). Before she left I did manage to snap a couple photos - they were quite the pair by the end of her stay.<br />

Before the crazy of May began, Steve and I managed to have a day/night for just the two of us. The day started with our first Twins game of the season, enjoyed a rooftop dinner in the middle, and ended with seeing Jim Gaffigan. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So thankful for family and friends who are willing to help with the little dude to let Steve and I to have date nights. We are truly blessed. </div>

Party. This is a little behind, but during the month of March Frankie got to experience his first surprise party and hibachi grill all at once! Steve and I were slightly concerned about this since the party was in St. Cloud on a Friday night and we haven't had much experience with Frankie in restaurants. We managed to make the timing work with feeding, etc. and got to the restaurant early (which is amazing for us getting off work, traffic, driving, a baby, etc.).<br />
<br />
The surprise was a success! Dan had no idea and a great group of his close friends enjoyed a delicious hibachi grill. Frankie wasn't a huge fan of everyone yelling surprise - he started screaming. However, that was the most upset he got the whole evening and he was fine after a moment. His favorite was when the hibachi grillers started the grills on fire, the kid loved it! He just stared. Well, the fire and the plates; he entertained himself with the plates for a while.<br />
<br />
We couldn't stay for the full evening but were able to celebrate for a short while. Frankie wanted to stay and party but was getting quite sleepy - he quickly crashed on our drive home. It was such a fun time and even though we were a little anxious about the evening, it turned out to be so wonderful. Our little man surprised us and handled the new, loud, crazy environment like a champ.<br />

We kept everything pretty low-key this year. My family was spread around but we were able to spend time with Steve's parents. Saturday, Nancy come up and joined Frankie & I as we went to see the Easter bunny! I thought I was going to have to be in the photo but he sat on the bunny's lap just fine. Well, we didn't really get any smiles but we also didn't get any screams! I will call that a success in my book.<br />
<br />
That night we went to the Easter service at church. I love the music at Easter. I can't quite put down what it is but I just love it. Growing up, we would even make it to the sunrise service which was always a great way to start a beautiful day. With Frank, we were glad to make it through the service. He continues to amaze us.<br />
<br />
For those who don't know, I love breakfast food. It is my favorite. So the fact that the country club has an Easter brunch - count me in! We went last year when I was pregnant and it was AMAZING! This year was no different. I love being able to eat to my hearts content. We met up with Jim and Nancy for brunch. All the workers loved seeing Frankie - they hadn't seen him for a few months. Steve and I managed to hand off the babe to grandma and grandpa and get in 9 holes of golf. It felt good to get on the course and be active. Looking forward to spending some quality time golfing this summer (if the babe allows).<br />
<br />
Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!<br />

It seems like it was just yesterday we were bringing Frank home from the hospital.<br />
<br />
The kid is constantly changing/growing/developing. His first teeth have finally popped through. Many more seem to be on the brink. This results in quite the hefty competition of who can drool more: a teething baby or an 80 lbs chocolate lab. Frank is not only crawling at a near Olympic pace, but he is also standing up and walking alongside things (such as his dad and the couch). In no time he will be sprinting after Kirby in the backyard giggling incessantly.<br />
<br />
His appetite seems to be growing as quickly as he is. He is always willing to try things at least the first time. He also is not afraid to show his displeasure when he encounters a food he does not care for (e.g. peas). Some of the highlights of the items he has liked are Hawaiian rolls, ham, and melon flavored frozen yogurt. His love for frozen yogurt really melted his mothers heart as it seems his love for dessert appears to be genetic.<br />
<br />
Amanda spent the first part of May working long hours so our monthly photos were taken at my parents house with the assistance of my Mom instead of in my Grandpa's chair at our house.<br />

For Amanda's first Mother's Day, we were able to spoil her for a couple hours before she went back to the office. The first part of May is her super busy time and none of us had really seen her in about a week so those few hours were great. Amanda managed to get Frankie down for a nap, although, he didn't want to sleep, he just wanted to spend time with his Mama. After his nap, I quickly strapped him into his car seat and away we went to MCC to meet up with Grandma for brunch. The little man was an all-star at the country club. He never ceases to amaze me.<br />

Amanda and I got to take Frankie to his first Twins games a couple weeks ago (the first of many). For only being 9 months old, he made it until the 7th inning and we left not because he was crabby but because we knew he would be if we stayed the whole game. He was a trooper and his favorite part was hanging out in center field standing and watching the game. We all had a great time and the Twins even pulled out the win! I am hoping to cultivate a Twins fans and maybe future baseball player.<br />

We tried the bumbo seat too late in the game, thankfully, our dear friends the LeRoys, didn't need their floor seat at the time and allowed us to barrow it. The little man enjoyed the seat for a few weeks until he started to figure out how to move, then nothing could hold him back!<br />

You know he is down for a good snooze when the pacifier falls out. I love my snuggle times with my babe. I try to take advantage as much as possible since I know there will be a time when I won't have the opportunity. Kirby usually partakes in our nap time snuggles as well (he is on the couch in the photo on the right). </div>

When I try to take pictures of Frank, he doesn't always cooperate so I end up taking a lot of photos that look very similar! But he always tries to grab the phone or camera! I have to get creative on how to get pictures before he lunges at the phone/camera. The result during this photo op, was Frankie's first selfie. :-) Or so it appears. Also, Frank and Kirby have a special relationship, even at such a young stage in life. I love capturing little moments like this.<br />

March began with Steve's birthday! I will admit, I forgot to plan ahead for a cake. Good thing, DQ didn't let me down. They had an America flag cake already made and ready to go. Steve thoroughly enjoyed the cake and I think the American flag made up for the fact I didn't plan ahead. :-)</div>
