Santa Visit

Well, Nathan's visit with Santa this year did not go so well. He's wasn't such a fan.

Happy Halloween

Nathan as a Fireman!!


Not too happy about having to wear the hat.

On the move.....looking for candy.

Look at that....he found a giant pixie stick!

Who needs candy when I have dog bones at my house!

Fall Days

Nathan has become quite the climber. He loves to climb into his toy box, the laundry basket, and any drawer he can get too.




Nathan and Daddy on their cell phones.





Looking good!!!

Nathan's Halloween shirt from Grandma Sandee.....

....look at all that candy he's eaten already.

Zoo Day

It was a beautiful day in Colorado so we decided to take Nathan to the zoo today! We figured it would be cold and snowy soon so we'd better take advantage while we can. We went in the late afternoon and most of the animals were out and about because it was feeding time. Best zoo experience in a long time!

Bears....we hope we never run into one of these out in the mountains.


Nathan liked the gorillas....he was ready to jump into the cage with them. Or maybe that was because they were getting a snack at the time.





The Hippo was Luke's favorite!

This one really liked having his/her picture taken.

So did the giraffe!

The zoo had three baby giraffes. The littlest one that is standing is 10 days old!! I wish we would have gone when the giraffe was pregnant....I think that would have been interesting to see.


Nathan wouldn't take his eyes off the Kimono Dragon for even a second. Evidently the dragon thought it would be good to keep an eye on Nathan too.

Nathan looking at the fish. He wanted to go swimming too.

Look at the crocodile on the left. It's a good thing these animals are behind glass or I think it might have come after Nathan's snack cup......that would be one heck of a fight.

Yeah for Zoo Day!

Peanut Butter

Dad was out of town this week so Nathan got to eat Peanut Butter crackers. He's a big fan!! I had to have the conversation with him about how he can only have peanut butter when dad isn't around........ Both he and Cooper enjoyed their peanut butter treat!

And Cooper's head pops up........


It doesn't help that Nathan now feeds the dog. No wonder she's gained weight.

Pumpkin Patch

When we were in Illinois a few weeks ago we visited the Arthur Pumpkin Patch with Landon and Kinley (and Mom and Jamie). It was awesome and definately put us in the fall mood.
Nathan enjoyed the wagon ride.

Nathan and Kinley - Little Pumpkins

We discovered that Nathan really likes Apple Cider Slushi.

I mean.....REALLY likes it.

Spaghetti Night

Yes, I know its been awhile but its taken me some time to figure out how to downsize the pictures my new camera takes.

Here Nathan is figuring out how to eat spaghetti noodles.

Awwwww.......Luke laid down in front of Nathan and Nathan leaned over and gave his head a hug. It was so cute.

Taking a nap with dad

Nathan's reading tent

Nathan loves his new tent. Last week he starting going in there to "read" his books for 5 or 10 minutes at a time. Mom LOVES it!!!





Hello out there

Why can't I get this bat into the tent??!??!

I love reading! (He definately gets that from his dad.)
