7 months!

Colton is 7 months. what the heck where has the time gone. he is growing up way to fast. He is such a good baby we just cant get enough of him. His personality is so fun and keeps us laughing. he loves sitting up and playing with his toys, he will fall over sometimes and ends up rolling all over the floor sometimes i am like where is colton it is too cute. he has been so obsessed with our dogs lately that he grabs them and pulls their hair and then they run from him and he also lets them lick his hands and then starts laughing, yuck i know but we wash his hands afterwards. it is a good way for the dogs to get use to him. He hasnt started crawling yet, he hates his tummy when i put him on his tummy he rolls right over to his back and not sure how to fix that but maybe he will go straight to walking. Not much has really changed in the last month he just gets cuter and cuter. we love you colton and cant wait to see you continue to grow.

Father's day

BEST DADDY EVER!

Andrew is such a great dad. Colton is so luck to have such a loving, caring dad that will do anything for him. I am such a lucky gal to be able to call him my husband. He is everything that i wanted in a father and more. Colton gets so excited when ever he sees daddy, especially when he comes home he is literally jumping for joy and cant stop smiling till daddy comes and gets him. You can just see the joy on andrews face and you can see how much he loves our little man.
He provides for our family so i can stay home with colton and i am truly greatful and appreciate him so much. I love you so much andrew, Happy father's day!

Smith Family gathering

Brother and his family were visiting from china and my sister came from utah. My brother came in thursday and we went the the pointe hotel where he was staying and went to the water park that they have there. i went down the waterslide that goes straight down i was terrified to go but i did and screamed the whole way down, i got the biggest wedgie in the world but it was fun. We then went the following wednesday to my parents house, when i got there no one was there i was ticked but then my dad appeared out of no where and said they went to lyman lake so we got back in the car and off we went to lyman lake, andrew stayed behind and slept he had worked that night before. i got there and it was so windy that after being there for an hour we had to leave but was fun. then we had a bbq, and my mom reserved the pool for our family that night. so we braved the cold water and got in, getting out was a different story it was so stinkin cold, but colton loved it and was having a ball. the next day we went to my parents resort in pinetop and went swimming again and played on the playground and had dinner. colton was not doing so good after swimming he ate his bottle and threw it all up all over him, it was sad. the next day we just hungout. All the kids got snowcones and so i couldnt resist and had to get one to. The weather was so awesome, we would just sit on the back porch and talk. i am glad that we got to go and hangout with my family even andrew had a good time which doesnt happen much since he isnt a fan of saint johns. i love my family and greatful for them all. these pictures are a little out of order.

what a cute family.
This past weekend was andrews family reunion. It was so nice to go to his grandparents cabin in pine. the weather was so nice i didnt want to leave and come back to the hot place. we were only there for the day but enjoyed it so much. just hanging out with the family and making jewelry. i am not very good at it but it was fun attempting. Colton of course loved it. he was so cute when him and cousin londyn were holding hands and he was trying to munch on her hand. they were just talking back and forth to each other they were too cute. needless to say it was a nice time while we were there. here are a few pictures of the reunion.

6 months already!

Colton was 6 months on tuesday, but we went to the doctor today. Again i was wrong with his weight he weighed in at 19lbs 75th percentile, height 27 inches 70th percentile, head 17.5 inches 70th percentile. So needless to say he is right on track. Colton loves waking up early but it is so cute cause i hear him playing around in his crib and when i go get him he is holding to both of his feet and rolling back and forth or he is completed turned around the opposite way just talking away. he is a big talker and loves to scream once they find their voice it is over from there but i love it. he is staring to crawl a little bit on his belly. He has strong legs and loves to jump around on us and in his jumparoo he goes nuts in that thing. He can put himself in a sitting position but then falls over it is a work in progress but i know it wont be to long. He will chew on anything that is in his path and loves to pull and eat my hair. Like i said he is teething and the 2 front teeth are really close to breaking through it is like using the jaws of life to look in his mouth he doesnt like it when i am poking around in there he would just rather chew on my finger instead. He grabs at anything in his reach i have to be way more cautious or else he will get a kung fu grip and wont let go. he loves bath time, he starts screaming and jumping around when he hears me turn on the water to cute.He is just growing up way to fast but we love to see him accomplish new things.
We love you bug.





















crazy face and eyes














He was playing with this cup and it ended up on his head.

love this video he is cracking up over a sweaky toy

Weekend in pine

This past weekend we went to andrews family cabin in pine. It was so awesome up there the weather was so nice, it rained a lot in the day but it was still so much fun to just be with family and eat good food all day long. andrew isnt a fan of going up there but the wonderful man that he is knows that i do so he went with us. colton loved it but towards the end he was getting really cranky which is not like him if you know my child he is the happiest baby ever, but he is teething big time his 2 front teeth are coming in, hopefully it wont be much longer i want my happy baby back.




















Happy little guy

Fun in the sun

Last week my sister heidi invited us over to play in the little pool out back i thought perfect it was a hot day and colton hasnt experienced the pool yet. So off we went. when we got there the kids were already playing and having fun. so i stripped colton down to his diaper i put his feet in and his face said it all, it was cold. but then he got used to it and was slashing around in no time just like he does in the bath. he looks so cute with his new hat that we bought for summer. thanks heidi for inviting us over.




















Chubby little man but cute as can be















Cousin Karli wanted to hold colton, she said he is heavy
