Hanging with friends....

We had dinner plans on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday last weekend! Fun was had by all! On Friday night, we went to dinner with Jason, Nicole, Nyah, and Reece! And on Saturday night, we had some of my college friends over for dinner. Nicole and Matt, Mandie and Aaron, and Megan all came over. Nicole and Matt have a daughter Taylor who was born on Austin's due date so we have lots of fun together!


Both Taylor and Austin are teething....

....but they still had fun "playing" together!

Austin figured out how to get to his toys...

Austin had fun playing with Uncle Jason at dinner...pushing all that air out of his mouth!!

Clint Hurdle was at school for a family night for the book fair so we took Austin to get his picture taken with him and his autograph! Austin wasn't so sure at first...but ended up smiling in the end!

November birthdays!

Grandpa Leaycraft's 60th birthday was while we were in Florida so we celebrated when we got back. Austin had fun giving Grandma his card and helping him open it!


Grandma Hunt's birthday was November 18th so we celebrated last Sunday with Rob's family...

The three cousins...Abigail, Austin, and Paul!

More swimming....and heading home!

On Sunday, the weather held out and we were able to get some more swimming in during the afternoon/early evening! The three of us probably spent about 45 minutes or so swimming around. We were even able to enjoy a dinner on the water for our last night!

Monday was our travel day home...and the little man was once again a trooper and did FABULOUS! Rob and I both talked about what a great traveler Austin had been ALL WEEK! He once again had a good flight with no problems! Our little man has blessed our lives already more than we could ever imagine...

Austin splishing and splashing with Daddy...

Checking out the scenery on the plane ride home!

Houston's here we come!

So my favorite restaurant is Houston's and they only have them in a few states -- Colorado not being one of them...so Rob has graciously, every year he's qualified to go to Florida, driven over an hour so I can have my ribs. This was the 4th year we've done this and Austin's first trip!!

Saturday afternoon we went swimming to show Daddy how much we LOVE the water...



Austins' 1st of many trips to Houston's...if Mommy has anything to say about it anyway!


Austin and Mommy...his personal swim instructor!


Austin loves to do motor boat...


Getting ready to go underwater...


...he likes it more than he did this summer! He never complained!

Austin's 1st trip to the ocean...

Rob had an 8AM tee time on Friday and since I was keeping Austin pretty much on Colorado time, it worked out well for our trip! Rob was done by noon and we went over at the turn and then again to pick him up. He missed the cut by 1 and we were bummed but still VERY proud of him!!

After finishing we drove to the beach to have little lunch and take Austin to the ocean for the 1st time! It was great as the place we ate at was on the beach so after we finished we walked right into the sand and ocean. Austin was completely unphased by the whole thing!!

And since it was Halloween, Austin wore his Florida costume...our little man, Charlie Brown!


We're so proud of Daddy!


Austin let the waves crash over his feet again and again....


....and let his toes feel the sand!

Austin and I went to see the manatees yesterday and today we went to see Daddy at the turn and then went swimming before going back to pick Daddy up! Austin LOVED the pool! We're hoping to take him to the beach for the first time in the next couple of days...


Mommy and Austin when seeing the manatee...


Daddy's #1 fan!


I LOVE the pool...it's so much fun to splash!




Watching Daddy come in on #18 is hard work....

Austin's 6 month pics....

So we're here in Florida but we were just able to view Austin's 6 month pics...be sure to check out Erin's blog for a preview http://www.elcphoto.com/blog/

We made it to Florida safe and sound. Austin was a TROOPER!! Especially since his first tooth started breaking through on Sunday morning...I would have never known. He was up earlier than usual on Sunday morning and Sunday after church I started poking around his gums and could feel his little tooth! The plane ride was uneventful. We were lucky enough to get a whole row to ourselves! Austin took a couple of little naps and just played with Daddy and I. I am sure it was an interesting sight to see us with our luggage and the little man. Rob had his clubs and his bag -- both rolling plus his backpack. I had the car seat in a backpack, Austin and I's bag -- yes, for those of you who know how I like to pack, Austin and I are SHARING ONE BAG FOR THE WEEK -- the daiper bag, video camera, and I was pushing Austin in the stroller.

Here are some pics of our plane ride and be sure to check out Erin's blog for Austin's pics!
