Various activities in September

Gabe's first gymnastics class.

Getting ready to do a forward roll

His favorite animals (on the golf course)

Zebra

Go-karting with daddy.  Gabe covered his ears the entire time.

Playing mini-golf on a trip with the youth group.

Does he look like a pro?

Reds game with cousins

Some random (completely out of order) pictures from the Reds game with the whole family (minus Nana, and Nathan, who was stuck in Texas!).

Trip to Green Bay

I think most everyone who might care has seen the wedding photos on facebook or through e-mail, so here are a few other things that we did while on our trip. These are not in order.

We stopped at Lambeau for lunch and snapped a few obligatory shots.
A fun morning at the Green Bay Train Museum

This was at the state park where the wedding took place
A little puzzle time
The rest are at the Green Bay Zoo before we left to go to the wedding.

3 Jensen men:

Gabe's "first" haircut

I know, I know. He's 3, right? Well, it was his first official haircut. We've done a few home trims, but I don't claim to be a stylist. So anyway, we wanted to make the procedure as painless as possible, so we went to Cool Cuts for Kids. They let him pick out a video (although he didn't actually do so because he was being stubborn about the whole thing). He fought getting into the seat (a cool taxi car!) for about 60 seconds and then he settled in for the ride.
We saw this face a few times.
And he leaned as far away from the stylist as he could get for most of the time.
Not a bad deal...sucking on a lollipop, watching toy story in a car. We won't do this everytime!
Proud of his new short haircut with his certificate.

Trip to Culvers

Last weekend, they had a "patio party" at Culvers. We had a great time and got some free things. Nathan's picture of "scoopie" (below) was the hit of the party.
Gabe liked the water balloons.


And he won the "custard walk" and got to pick out a prize. He knew exactly what he wanted, but they didn't have it in their prize box. He politely (?) asked for the stuffed dog, and as usual, he got what he wanted.

Bike riding, feeding ducks (again) and the Ft. Worth Zoo

As per Popaw's request, here is Gabe pedaling his bike. He's got the rhythm down, he just needs more strength to really get himself going.
We went during the day this time, so the ducks were actually hungry. One duck came up and took bread right out of Gabe's hand!
Yesterday (Saturday), we went to the Fort Worth Zoo. Nathan had never been there before. The last time Gabe and I went, he was only about 4 months old (we also took Michael and Ryan that time). It was a PERFECT day weather-wise. The only downside of the day is that we did lose Lambie. Really. And not on purpose, either. Gabe wants to go get him, but he's handling it well.

Mothers Day weekend

We had some animal fun this weekend. First, a petting zoo and pony rides at a DTS graduation party.
Not to mention the bounce houses!
My little horseman!
Last night, we went to a little pond to feed ducks and for Gabe to ride his bike. He had a great time with the ducks (which he tried to pet, thanks to the previously mentioned petting zoo). And he's finally learning to pedal! yeah!

I had a great mother's day. My boys made it special for me!
