SEPTEMBER

Onto another month of fun, traveling, and craziness.

End of August we flew into Salt Lake to spend a little time with Family {L only got 1 1/2 days} before Landon drove 12+ hours to San Francisco to start another month long rotation at

  Kaiser San Francisco.

Colter and I were lucky enough to stay in Salt Lake for a few more days{sept 1-7} before we headed down to St. George. 

We were there for a week, went to Lake Powell for a few days {sept 13-16} we had to get in one last trip of the season then back to St. George for a week. 

Colter and I flew to San Francisco {sept 21-27} to spend the last week with Landon. Mike and Kinney-and their 5 kids- so kindly let us stay with them {L stayed with them all month} they are an amazing family. It was a month full of F'real milkshakes and pool.

Then once again the 4 hour drive to Reno {late sept 27} to stay/see my Aunt Bobby and Uncle Blair then the 8 hour drive to Salt Lake {sept 28} that is one long car ride and I think Colter did better than I did. best baby ever!!

We had an early Birthday Brunch on Saturday the 29th with family and friends for Colters First Birthday then on sunday the 30th we drove 8+ hours to Denver for another month long rotation.

Colter has grown, and explored, and discovered, and mastered new tricks. its crazy how much development and progression happens in a month. He still loves to eat and loves cars. He is an amazingly good sport. He is so much fun to be with all day long. EVERYONE loves him!!

Everyone asks "how do you do all that traveling and bouncing around with a baby and a lot of times by yourself?" .... you do what you got to do. when you don't have another choice you just do it... with a smile (most of the time) I am so grateful for our families and all their help and support, they have made this possible...thank you all.

This is when the fascination with cars started.... and different sound effect with each one. I love how boys are born with the ability to make amazing sounds.

Lake Powell

Colter love cottage cheese

.... and the water

Colter has discovered "independent eating" he wants to do it himself. He loves Bananas, Pears, Corn on the Cob, String Cheese, Grapes, ..... really anything he can stick in his mouth. 

 Walnut Creek, CA

 Colter LOVES toothbrushes he carries them around everywhere. He prefers one in each hand.
