Thanksgiving

We had such a good Thanksgiving spending time with family.  Dusty was spoiled ROTTEN!!

Poppa made Dusty his own menu with no wheat and no milk! He thought it was very good.

The whole family together.

Halloween!

Dusty was an adorable lion for Halloween and Mommy was a crazy zoo keeper. We went truck or treating and had dinner with friends.  It was a good night,.

Getting the costumes ready!

Getting the face paint on!

Fueling up for the long night.

The completed look

Um......I am not quite sure what I am supposed to be doing......

Tired lion

The mother load!!

Sorry!

I am not doing so well keeping this up to date lately.  Dusty is doing really good. He is just as cute as can be and continues to grow and learn new things every day.  He has such a little personality.

At 9.5 months this is what he does:


-He is so sweet and loves snuggles (only when it is his idea.)
-He is constantly smiling and loves to laugh.
-He has three teeth now and working on a fourth.
-He loves to Skype with grammie and poppy.
-He babbles all the time now.
-He says "Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma" when he is mad.
-He loves anything and everything about his Poppy.
-He rolls all over the place. He is starting to try and get himself into the crawling position, but still hates being on his tummy.
-He sits up really well all by himself.
-He eats bananas and puffs by himself.
-He loves to jump. Thank heavens for a jumper because my arms get tired way before he does.
-He still loves water and anything about it. He loves swimming and playing in the tub and sink.

-He sleeps through the night. (yay!)

-He does much better on car rides and loves to watch Dinosaur Train on DVD when we travel.

-He imitates raspberries and "Do-do-do"

-He claps his hands.

He is just so smart and adorable! I am excited to continue to watch him change and grow.  I love my little Doodle!!

I can't believe it

Dusty has big news!!

It was a good weekend!  We went back down to Cedar City for my mom's birthday.  It was fun!  I also got my hair done (much needed!)  We are going back down there next weekend for conference and to see Katie and Colton. I am pretty sure that my ward here in Huntington thinks I am inactive. Don't worry! I have been going to church every week, just not here.

Exciting News this week!!!

DUSTY GOT HIS FIRST TOOTH! But that is not all.....DUSTY GOT HIS SECOND TOOTH!!  I can't believe how big and grownup he is getting. Next thing I know he will be chewing on steak and taters!  The picture sucks but do you know how hard it is to get a picture of a baby's mouth?  At least you can kind of see them.

SOO CUTE!!

Just chilling at the doctor for our follow up appt. I really like his pediatric GI. She does a good job.

Such a handsome boy with his big blue eyes and crazy hairs!

Dusty is going to be a handsome lion for halloween. This is the adorable costume that Grammie CJ bought for him.  It is perfect!

Chilling in my monster jams!!
