Girls Night
We had a last minute little fondue get together with some of the girls before we all go our separate ways. May is always a hard time in the student world that we live in, graduation happens and it seams like we loose everyone... but then in August a whole new crew moves in.... but its still hard.

Ocean City NJ

This has become one of our most favorite spots. It was a little windy {or really windy} and the water was freezing but we still had a great time. I'm so glad we got a few trips in with friends before we all leave. The shore is what makes the summers in Philly worth it, for us anyways. Colter does great at the shore, he is happy, and just hangs out, plays, and eats sand....he loves the sand.

Mothers Day
Landon spoiled me on mothers day, he is so good to us as always. I woke up to my sweet boys, breakfast, and a tender card, cards are my all time favorite. The boys also got me a BOB stroller, I'm really excited to start using it. Then we finished off the perfect day with an AMAZING dinner by Landon {and the boys helped a bit} we had all of my favorites: baby back ribs with the secret home made sauce, sweet potatoes, corn on the cob and fresh fruit and..... home made blueberry cream cheese pie. 
I am so blessed to have my boys in my life. They make me so happy!! They make my life complete. I love every minute of being a mom. It is greater than I could have ever imagined. Thanks Landon for making me a mom!! I  have been blessed with the most amazing mom and I am so grateful for all she has done and continues to do for me. she is an incredible example of perfection.
 I hope to be just like her when I grow up. 

 

  Ocean City

Cant wait for August so we can be back at the shore, love the place, love the people, love it all. Get your beach chairs and umbrellas ready Krista and Jennie, we will be back before you know it.

 But until then we have a fun filled adventurous summer awaiting. 

SEVEN MONTHS OLD

5-5-2012

My Colter Boy is seven months old. Another month has started and now we are already half way through May...crazy!  {the time is passing so quick i have a hard time keeping up} Colter is on the move.... he is rocking and rolling and moving all over. He finds his way to my lap and then climbs all over me. He is always moving, he flaps his arms and kicks his legs so fast, its like he is going to take flight. He has so much energy. He is a HAPPY Boy, very chill and content. He likes me to be right by him all day, we are little buds and we do EVERYTHING together. Colter is very sensitive to noises, he is easily startled and instantly terrified!!! He still isn't sleeping through the night, I have always thought he was a good sleeper until it dawned on me that he is 7 months old and still not sleeping through the night, oh well what do you do. He takes great naps so that's a plus!!! His skin has been clear of eczema for awhile, we are still using the creams religiously and I'm hopping that Utah doesn't flare it up again. This is such a fun age, Colter loves to play games and read stories and sing songs he gets really excited!! and no one can make him laugh like his daddy can.... he sure loves his dad!!! and mmmm I could just eat him up!!!

 Colters Favorites

 Leo the lion

flying like a bird

 he puts EVERYTHING in his mouth

 blabs and jabbers and sings

 baby blues melt my heart

 ROCKING AND ROLLING ALL OVER THE PLACE

......HAPPENINGS......

Colter is learning and perfecting new tricks every day. This is a little glimpse of what our are normal everyday day to day looks like

 {I'm trying to be better at taking pictures with the real camera and not just my phone} 

It amazes me how fast he picks up on things.

 For instance, he rarely drinks out of a bottle {only a few times} and when we gave him a sippy cup he grabbed it with both hands and went right for it, I guess EVERYTHING goes straight into his mouth but I was surprised that he could hold it and knew to drink out of it.

 I Just stare into those baby blues and get lost, this baby knows the way straight to my heart, I think I might be in trouble with this one.

  

He LOVES to sit up in the tub and splash and play and he doesn't really mind if his face gets wet or drenched. I think its about time we get some tub toys. We love that he loves the water.

Colter is a really good eater, this is the first time with green beans and he didn't gag, spit it out, or make a yucky face, he just ate it. He loves them all {sweet potato, squash, green beans, apples, banana, pear, and the mixed fruit. but his most favorite is the oatmeal with bananas}

 Colters many FACES. 

 so animated.so entertaining.we could watch him all day.and we do.
