1st Potty!

Today was a big day for Colton...he went potty in his potty this morning! We've been trying every night before his bath and decided to start giving it a shot in the morning. He sat down and a couple seconds later there it was! We're so proud of our big boy, and he was so proud of himself!

Colt and Coop Part 2

Colton and Cooper are still getting along great...or should I say Colton is getting along great with Cooper and Cooper just puts up with it! Colt really loves his doggie and especially loves giving him hugs and kisses and now has started trying to ride him. Thankfully Cooper doesn't mind it much and every once in a while shows Colton how much he loves him too!

Pumpkin Patch

Halloween is right around the corner so it must be time for the pumpkin patch! This year was Colton's second trip to the pumpkin patch and we were laughing when we thought about how different this outing was compared to his first trip last year. Last year Colt couldn't walk and would just sit and look at the pumpkins...this year he was running around like crazy, picking out pumpkins, pushing them around, looking for bugs and playing in the dirt! He's such a little boy!

We finished off our weekend with some kettle corn, Halloween decorations - which Colton refers to as "pooky" aka "spooky" - and homemade chili...what a great weekend!

Colton Does the Puyallup

Colton "Freed his Glee" at the Puyallup Fair this year and had a great time! We checked out the pigs and the cows, the giant pumpkins, and the petting zoo. I think Colt's favorite thing by far was the petting zoo though, he had so much fun chasing around the goats and the sheep and making animal sounds! To top off the night he tried a bite of Jake's monster burger...it was the size of his head!

Aloha!

We had a GREAT vacation in Hawaii! All the worrying before we left about how Colt would handle the flight was for nothing because he handled it like a total pro...thank goodness for Cars and Toy Story!

This was Colton's first visit to the beach and although he wasn't all that thrilled with the actual ocean, he had a great time playing with his bucket in the sand. Some other favorite things Colt discovered on our trip...trains and fishies! On our sugar cane train trip all we heard was "All Aboard!" and "Choo Choo!" At the aquarium he was amazed by the sharks and loved all the koi fish around the hotel property.

With all the new things for Colton to discover his favorite thing by far was the pirate ship in the kiddy pool. We spent most every afternoon at the pirate ship and by the end of the trip Colt had mastered both the slides!

Our first family vacation was so amazing and we just can't wait to go back!
