3 day weekend of fun (part 1)

This is Sydney's journal entry for school--I asked her if I could borrow it because I thought it was so sweet.

"Pretty much everything he does is cute." --Auntie Syd

and reminding Grandma Jules she needs to share the little cutie pie. :-)


Sydney is the best auntie to Colton. She jumped right in there to watch Wes feed Colton dinner. Wes quickly handed over the bowl and spoon, gave a few pointers and Sydney then fed Colton the entire bowl of pureed butternut squash. She's a natural! And I LOVE her facial expressions when feeding her nephew. She's such a sweetie. 



My Dad, Julie, and Sydney came to visit us Oct 27th-30th and we had an awesome time!

Of course they had seen pictures and we had skyped, so they'd seen Colton and could tell he'd changed since they'd last seen him in August. They were so amazed at how much he'd changed when they saw him in person:

 crawling every where, not just rolling & scooting.

pulling himself up and cruising along furniture.

and eating baby food.

full of smiles and laughter (this hasn't really changed much, it's just much more amplified since he's older)

( and he was full of giggles especially for his auntie...everything she did was hysterical to him!)
