What a fun week!

Well, I am on a total spiritual high from the Relief Society general meeting! President Uchtdorf totally made my day with his talk about how we are all doing okay no matter how we feel and that we are all recognized and loved by our heavenly father. I am so thankful for experiences like that- I just don't think that we as women can hear that enough. Well, there's my soapbox for the night! Kolton has now moved on from screaming and has decided that his feelings are better expressed by a cry followed by a huge raspberry (for the lay-person that means puckering your lips and spitting). I have yet to capture it in photo form but it is pretty funny! Also, the scouts came over for a service project and weeded our front flower bed and read Kolton a story..so cute! (Pardon the mess in the picture- I was sewing when they came over.) We went to see my nephew's football game today (GO BOBCATS!) and got some cute pictures of Kolton so, of course, I MUST post them along with a few other cuties of him. So, feast your eyes on my handsome little guy... ENJOY!
Ooodles and ooodles of love from us,

Happy Fall to All!!!

We absolutely LOVE fall in our home, and we have already taken a trip up the canyon to see the changing leaves. We got our decorations up and I am planning on making some killer pumpkin shaped sugar cookies for our FSA (Families Supporting Adoption) educational workshop this Friday. We had someone come by to look at our house today so it is all sorts of clean and sparkling, so I actually have time to catch up on my favorite bloggers and their lives. Kolton is seriously growing and learning by the second! He is starting to eat banana puffs and cheerios, even though he doesn't have teeth (but his bite is quite ferocious!) and he is getting close to being able to crawl! I am starting to sign with him already and I think he is beginning to understand some of the general signs like milk and sleep. He is so observant of everything happening around him and he is also starting to notice when I leave the room and he sooo does not like it! I'm sure that soon our neighbors will know every time I leave his sight because he is developing quite a scream! We hope everyone is doing great and enjoying this awesome season so far!
Much love and hugs-
Tabitha

Hey, one entry a month ain't bad!

What a crazy month it has been! We have been here and there and everywhere just living up our Summer! We went to Bear Lake this week with my (Tabitha's) family and had an incredible time playing in the water with him and judging the niece's and nephew's sand castle contest. The weather was perfect and the company was even better! It was a great break from the busy schedule we have and a fun opportunity to show off our little guy. I am so thankful to have such a loving and supportive family on my side. I know you all check this blog for the pictures and not for my rantings- but just know that we love you all and hope your families are doing as well as ours! Much love, Tabitha

Pictures, pictures, pictures!

Whew! I need to get better at not slacking on my blog! I keep thinking to myself, "I'll just wait until we do 'this' and I get lots of cute pictures and then I will post them all at the same time!"--- as a result, I have oodles of pictures from different places we've been and things we've done as a family- so please enjoy! Kolton is officially 15lbs and 11oz! He is solid as a rock- hardly any flab! He is also starting to giggle a ton and he is oh, so close to rolling over! In the last month we have taken a trip to Elko, Nevada (for family history) and we went camping with the FSA (Families Supporting Adoption) group and we also went to Hogle Zoo as well as to the Logan and Lewiston fireworks! I also have pictures of Kole's first swimming experience and his cousin, Cora's fourth birthday party! I will be adding a slideshow- so I hope it turns out okay. Thanks for viewing! (and yes, I know it says he had his first "pite" of cereal- but the darn thing wouldn't let me edit it!)
Much love and {{hugs}}
