Coleman turns 2-months!

Finally we're having some nice, Minnesota summer weather!  We had a great week this week, with Auntie Lindsay and Ting, TJ & Kaya in town Monday & Tuesday as well as Auntie Whitney and Uncle Patrick, along with little Lillian visit Wednesday-Friday.

Some highlights from the week:

• On Monday, Coleman weighed in at 10#6oz in his onesie with his paci.  After weighing the paci and onesie, I'm guessing his "real" weight was around 10#3.5-4oz this week.
• Coleman went to the MN Children's Museum for the first time with the Louies and saw the Curious George exhibit
• We went to the Como Zoo with Whitney and Lillian on Thursday and saw all sorts of animals!
• Coleman had his first non-family babysitter(s) on Thursday: Whitney and Lillian!  Mommy got her hair cut and Lillian was ready - she told anyone who would listen that she was going to MN to babysit Baby Coleman (Lillian is 2 1/2).  Big thank you to Whitney for watching him during nap time :)
• On Friday, we watched Grandad play in the Open and cheered him along the entire afternoon!  Snapped my favorite picture of Coleman thus far

Saturday was pretty much the biggest one yet for the family.  It was Mommy & Daddy's 5th wedding anniversary (and 14th anniversary from our first date!).  What a fun, relaxing day.  We started with breakfast at a newer place, Sun Street Breads in S. Minneapolis (delicious biscuit breakfast sandwiches!).  We played around the house all day with the hot weather and got ready for the night.  Shortly before we left for dinner, Daddy popped a bottle of Schramsberg Vintage 2007 (Calistoga) and gave Mommy her anniversary present.  The necklace is PERFECT!  Then it was off to dinner at Restaurant Alma while Carolyn, a nurse/neighbor watched him.  

Dinner was perfect - a fantastic bottle of Viogner and we popped a bottle of the 1999 Marcassin Pinot Noir that the Lipps gave us for our wedding.  Thank goodness for MN liquor laws that allow re-corked bottles of wine to leave a restaurant.  Adam had the hamachi tartare, masa corn crepe with rabbit in mole and duck with grilled peaches.  I had the farrow and squid salad, soft corn polenta with mushrooms and the roasted pork tenderloin with summer tomatoes and beans.  YUM!

Some photo highlights of the week are below.  Was fun watching Grandad in the Open this week.  Here's to an AWESOME week next week at Turnberry!!

Meg, Adam and Coleman

Mommy's 5th Anniversary gift from Daddy - I love it!!

And now our 2 month and 9 week photos!

 Not a great shot, but I love the little smile!!

No judging on his 9-week photos...he had 4 shots + an oral vaccine in the morning. He was NOT a happy camper on Monday night, but we wanted to make sure we took his weekly pictures.  Also, he could have been upset that Mommy dressed him in a "gown."
