Happy Valentine's Day!

Austin says Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!!



Swimming Lessons!

We enrolled Austin in his first set of "official" swim lessons in February! I have been working with him since the doctor told me it was okay but we decided a group lesson would be good for him!!! I'm not sure who was more excited, me, or him?!?!? He loves the water and loves the pool....every time we drive by the outside pool that we swim in during the summer, he says "pool" but think he would have rather done his own thing than a lesson! That's okay, we'll keep at it!


Trying to escape!

Going after the fish!

Using the barbell...this brought back memories from when I taught swim lessons....I think it's much harder to teach your own child to swim!

Playing in the fountains after lessons!

New Year, New Adventures and more fun!

It's been a great start to 2010 with lots of fun times with friends and fun new adventures...check it out!


We took Austin to his first Nuggets game...
We had the perfect seats...upper level on the railing so he could get up and move around and check it out!

Our little Nugget!

Mr. Cool in his new hat! And of course, we had to wear sunglasses!!

Playing at Little Monkey Bizness with Taylor!

Hi Mommy!

Taylor was over for dinner a few nights later, and Austin was putting on the moves! Taylor and Austin are 12 days apart!

A smile Mommy and Daddy can't resist!

Dukes of Hazard style with buddy Easton!


Austin did playdoh for the first time this month! He loves it! And Mommy was proud since she made it!

He loves to use the fish stampers!

Love this face...Austin dipping his chicken nuggets in his yogurt!

Estes and New Years!

Rob wanted to try to get some work done around the house so Austin and I headed to Estes for a couple of days. We came back on New Years Eve to ring in 2010 with the Brandts!


The elk right outside my parents' condo...I wish I had gotten a picture of Austin watching the elk! He loved them...the second morning we were there he went straight to the window to look for them only to discover they weren't there! But he really tried to call them!
Grandpa Leaycraft needs help getting his shoes off so Austin gladly lends a hand!

Showing Grandpa and Grandma how to double fist and eat oatmeal!
