Happy New Year!

Our Christmas travels are going great! We are in

Fort Dodge and have been having a great time visiting with friends and family over the last couple of weeks. This morning I was singing to Colton and he belly laughed for the first time!! Super cute and of course I couldn't get him to do it again with any witnesses but it was still very exciting to get to hear him laugh. He has been talking more and more and growing every day!! Austin has been all smiles and having a great vacation as well, he enjoyed opening his Christmas presents this year as well as everyone else's. :)

Jon and Clare came over to celebrate Christmas with us last Saturday. We decorated cookies, opened gifts and had dinner together. It was a lot of fun and as always, time went too fast. Here is a little clip of Uncle Jon playing with Austin . . . as well as a picture of Colton in his new Christmas jammies!!

My friend Edie plays guitar and she got one for Austin! She gave him his very first guitar lesson last night and he did a fantastic job playing his very first chord.

December 14th and it is in the 60's!!!

Our weather here has been amazing the past two days. We have been going on walks and spending time in the yard. It's a nice change of scenery since me and the boys have been hanging out in the house so much. These are pictures of Austin in Colton's bed. Austin can't believe how high it is and thought he would curl up for a quick nap. . . not that he ever actually fell asleep! :)

TGIF . . . Colton is all smiles today!! Enjoy all the little pics!

Mommy made pudding . . .

. . . AND AUSTIN LOVED IT!!!

Today we are just hanging out at home. I'm trying to get some stuff done around the house. Colton has such a strong neck. He sits up with support and just looks around the room checking everything out!!
