I wonder what Cowboy boots taste like...

So once again, I am bad with updating pictures, but we've been super busy lately. We just got back from Oklahoma from an awesome weekend and we had a ball with Kevans family. The night before we left for our trip I had a little photo shoot with our little cowboy... Aunt Steen says that he looks like he is getting ready for his Playgirl shoot in this next one... Whatever.. :-)

Is this not the cutest smile ever!!

Colton was trying to prove that cowboy boots are yummy!! I'm not sure if he proved his theory or not, but he sure did try!!

I can't believe that he is already over 6 months. We had a great birthday and I can't believe that we're as old as we are. 26 and 28 seems so far out. At least Kevan is closer to 30 than I am. yuck!! I am dreading that birthday tons, but oh well. It'll happen... So Colton still has his two teeth, but is working on his top two teeth also.
Our flight to Oklahoma was pretty uneventful, it was so nice to actually have a direct flight though, I understand more of why Christine refuses to have a connection anymore. I had the same conversation that we have every single time that we fly...
Random Traveller: "Awww, is this babies first flight?" as they are grabbing for his clean hands with their own dirty, nasty germ-filled hands.
Me: "Ugh, no, this is actually his 17th flight..." while trying to get those grubby hands away from my precious baby.
Random Traveller: "WHAT? Wow, I, uh, guess thats good, uh, thing?? Do you think thats, um, safe for him??" as they finally understand that I don't want their nasty hands on my child.
Me: "Well YOU'RE flying, so I guess the modern world has evolved enough that I feel safe leaving my stone hut with my child before he turns three... Now get your stinkin hands OFF of his before he puts YOUR germs in his mouth!!!"
Colt rode his first bull on his first day in Oklahoma, it was awesome.. He stayed on for over 8 seconds and here are some pictures of it...
Here are some more pictures of our trip...









But yeah, so Colton has now gone on 18 flights and this last one was the worst yet, it doesn't help that he isn't a little comatose baby anymore. Now that he has his own ideas and know's what he wants he's a lot harder to keep under wraps. Especially now that he has figured out that high pitched squeeling is the coolest thing in the WORLD...

I'm a bad blogger

I'm such a bad blogger... I haven't blogged in forever!!! Bad Lindsay...

Things with us have been really hectic to say the least. We had an amazing Christmas in Florida and it was so great to spend time with Dad. There is something so special about watching your child play with your father. Its so special. It was pretty hectic though. We flew into Tampa on Dec 22nd and then drove the next day down to Boca Raton since Nana couldn't come up to see us. On Christmas Eve we had a huuuuge Crab Legs fest and it was awesome!! Kevan and I proved that we are the star crab leg eaters!!
Here are some pictures of us at the beach























After our great trip to Florida, Colton and I headed off to snowfilled Denver to hang out with my Mom and sister (and their respective Clans...) It was so fun to have the kids together and although it was reallllllllllllllllllllly small quarters for all of us, we had a ball. We were got over 30 inches of snow while we were there and built an awesome sledding track right in front of the house. Jim took the best pictures on his amazing new camera, but I haven't gotten my copies yet (hint hint....)
Here is a picture of Kevan and Roger doing down the track on New Years Day...

Just to give you an idea of the insane amount of snow that we had, Colton is pushed into the snow so that he is standing up... Everyone thinks that he is laying down, but nope, thats a loooot of snow!!

I love this face!!! How Cute!!




I'll post our pictures hanging out with everyone and at Hoppy's wedding soon, but Colton just woke up and needs me!!! I hope that everyone is well! Talk to you all soon (and if you live in Colorado... we'll SEE you soon!!!)

We have big plans for this month, Colton turns 6 months on the 4th, Kevan turns 28 on the 5th, I turn 26 also on the 5th, we go to Oklahoma on Feb 9-13th and then I have my final schnoze surgery scheduled for the 21st. I cant wait to get it corrected again! its going to be awesome to have a straight nose again! its been a couple of years.... I am sooooooo excited!!!!
