Party and Cookie

On Sunday, the Stoebers headed to Rockford to attend the party celebrating Cousin Ava's 3rd birthday and Cousin Caden's 5th birthday. Here's Caden with a gloop of mushy silly string in his hand.



Here Caden got the hang of how to spray the silly string. Aunt Marcia and Ava were in the line of fire.

Believe it or not, probably 3 or 4 times a year all 7 Lendman kids and Gramma Pat and Papa Joe end up at the same function. However this was one of those rare times someone actually took a picture. Standing left to right are Dan, Julie, Mark, Shirley, Marcia, Chris, and Bernie (aka Meepa).

Uncle Mark put his hat on Ryan's head.

I found these Gerber nibbler cookies at the store the other day. Supposedly babies like to knaw on them while teething. They dissolve pretty easily so there's little risk of choking. I took a taste (before giving it to Ryan) and it tasted what I expected Gizmo's dog biscuits to taste like. No, that didn't stop me from giving it to Ryan. He loved it!
