GROWING UP!

Our little collin is growing up so very fast! I thought I would share pictures to show how much he has grown in just One Year!

Newborn

2Months



4Months



6Months

9Months

1Year
He was so funny with is one year pictures! We had to pull out all kinds of stuff to keep him still for just a second to snap a picture. He kept running toward the camara. He was showing off his personality that's for sure!



At one point we got this box out and put him in the center and got a head shot. That's one of the things we did to keep him still for a second. Then he decided it would be fun to crawl inside it!




We put these wooden letters that spelled out ONE on the floor next to him and this is the first thing he did with them. It was so funny but made for some really cute pictures! He is such a joy in our lives! I don't know what we used to do with our time without him. He always keeps us laughing! We can't wait until he can put the gabbering into words! I am sure he will have all kinds of stories to tell!

Oregon!

We had a wonderful vacation in Oregon for a few days! We went to visit Scott's Grandma and Grandpa! It was so good to see them again.

We took collin outside for a few minutes to play. He loved it! He hasn't been able to play outside in Utah because of the snow. He is going to love it this summer now that he can walk!


He loved playing with Great Grandpa! They would pick on each other. Collin pulled his chest hair and try to pull his glasses off and grandpa would take collins hand and make him smack himself back and he would pull at his clothes! Collin though it was pretty funny! He also gave lots of hugs though!


He also loved Great Grandma! He would walk up to her, lift his arms up and say up. He gave her lots of loves and cuddles! She read him books and sang him songs! They bonded well and very quickly!



We took him out to help feed the cows! He was so interested in them. He would try to touch them and they would flinch away and it would startle him so he would flinch away also. They gave him a few kisses though!




We gave him a bath in the sink! He thought it was pretty cool. If I was holding him by the sink after that he would try to get in. He loves his baths!



We had a great time! I am so glad we got a chance to go see them again! Collin loved them and their home! There was so much to explore and it also helped that he got spoiled with all there love and attention! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for letting us crash your home for a few days!



The driving was another adventure all on it's own. On the way down there we left at 10:00pm and drove all through the night hoping that Collin would sleep the whole way. For the most part he did pretty good. As for Scott and I it was tough (especially for scott who drove the whole time) but we managed to survive! We decided to leave in the morning for the drive home. We were unsure on how Collin would do, but he did excelent!


He gabbered for a while!

He ate for a while! Thanks for the string cheese grandma he loved it!

And He slept for a while! He only cryed for about 30min total the whole way home! We were so very proud of him! It was a wonderful trip! We can't wait to go back this June for the family reunion!
