A Day at the Zoo

Mommy and I went to the zoo today with all of our friends. We had so much fun looking at all the animals, I think the giraffes were my favorite, although the monkeys were pretty funny too. Here I am making a monkey face or at least I think thats what it was.







This is a picture of me and my friends all sitting by the orangutan exhibit. Can you believe we all sat there long enough to have our picture taken. We had so much fun, but we all got tired so we didn't get to see all the animals, guess that means they have to take us back soon.








Just before we left, mom and I went on the
train around the park, at first I wasnt sure
what to think, but once we got moving I had
a blast. I waved at everyone as we rode
past them. It was so much fun that I cried
when we had to get off, but mommy promised
we could come back and ride again soon.

Just like daddy

Kolton is really watching people and copying what they do and say. Earlier tonight, Kolton was watching Dustin sitting and reading the paper in his favorite chair. When Dustin got up to get a glass of water he returned to find Kolton in his spot. The moment was priceless and for once, I was able to get the camera and sneak a few pictures in. Kolton did all this on his own with no provoking from any of us, thats what makes it so sweet. I thought you might enjoy these.

Petting Zoo

Kolton had his first trip to the petting zoo. He LOVED getting to play with all the different animals, although the goats seemed to be his favorite. All Kolton wanted to do was chase and feed the goats and the pony. Shortly after that, Kolton found the minature golf, like father like son, we had to pry him away. All he wanted to do was hit the ball into the hole and then would cheer for himself when he made it, expecting everyone else to join in on the cheering. I wonder where he gets that from. Luckily for Dustin, it looks like Kolton will love the game as much as his daddy does. As you can tell from the pictures, Kolton got to enjoy some birthday cake, the blue icing stained him hands and stomach for a couple of days. He had a great time playing with his friends, and enjoying all the fun at the petting zoo. It makes me that much more excited for his party thats just around the corner. Its so great to see him play well with his peers and experience new things on a daily basis.

Fall in Houston

Hello everyone, I am starting this blog in hopes to keep our friends and family near and far updated on our lives. I will do my best to keep it updated on a regular basis.

Kolton is growing so much. Its hard to believe I am starting to plan his 2nd birthday. My little boy is growing up so fast. I am excited to have a party with all his little friends over to play and celebrate. My goal is to never "mix" birthday and Christmas together for him, which I am sure will soon prove to be more of a challenge as he gets older and knows whats going on. We are looking forward to the Holidays this year. We have so much to be thankful for, and I know Christmas this year will be loads of fun at this age. I will work on getting some pictures up ASAP.
