Sno Cone of Luv

Well this month I don’t really have any stats to share as there is no 7-month appointment. All I can do is give you a bulleted list of the cool things she’s doing or the milestones that she has passed. I’m not sure if they’re all milestones, but at least noteworthy.

two lower teeth on their way in – surprisingly not fussy at all during the process

solid food – so far she eats sweet potatoes, squash, peaches and bananas – she does not care for the rice cereal

tongue –discovered and out all the time

sleeping through the night most of the time

doing a good job in swim class – the teachers are impressed

still rolling all over the place

starting to recognize the camera – doesn’t mean I can get her to smile, but she smiles when she sees it now

I’m sure there’s more, but I just can’t think right now – it’s too early. Of course there are new pictures in the gallery.

So some people have asked me if I’m still going to march Govies this summer. The answer is yes. Should I be? Most likely no, but it is kind of a release for me. Although as I sit here typing this after a rehearsal weekend, completely exhausted, sunburned and just all around mentally worn out, I question it a little. Don’t get me wrong, I love it, I’m just a little beat.

For those of you in Iowa that don’t know, I’m playing Euphonium this year. All that means is by August I should be able to beat any of you in arm wrestling….with my left arm. What I would like to take a moment to mention though is that it would be great to see some of you at a show this year (unless you’re in Govies and then you should be there anyway). I never really have truly solicited my friends to come to shows, but I see some of you so infrequently it would be a great excuse for a trip for you. Now my first year, a few of you did come out…and I was horrible…worst show of my life …and not a happy camper, or polite for that matter. However, things are much better now.

Anyway, here are the show dates so mark your calendar:

June 22nd Stillwater, MN - DCI

June 23rd Mankato, MN – DCI

June 29th Coon Rapids, MN – DCI (close to our house)

July 26th South Milwaukee, WI - DCA

July 27th Lake Geneva, WI – DCA

August 16th St. Peter, MN – DCA (best after show party ever)

August 17th South St. Paul, MN - DCA

August 31st Rochester, NY – DCA Prelims (finals the next day)
