September Birthdays

We spent 2 weekends in a row in Northern Va with Colby's grandparents.

Sept. 15th was Grandad's birthday. We went to a bbq at Matt's to celebrate.

Sept. 22nd was Grandma Gigi's birthday, so we went to her house for a bbq and to watch the Redskins beat the Cardinals. Go SKINS! :)

This is Grandma Gigi's cake that we made out of cake balls. I found the recipe online, and it's been a hit so far. This lady's website is so fun! I love looking at all her creative creations!

Jason's birthday is next!

Taking Steps

Here are 2 short videos of Colby taking steps tonight. The past few weeks he's been getting more and more adventurous. He's taken a step here and there, but mostly he's just lets go of the couch and dives forward. Tonight he let go and took two little steps. He was very excited about it, and so were we!

9 Months old

Colby is 9 months old now. We go for his 9 month checkup in a couple of weeks. I can't believe how fast time is just flying by! He's pulling up on everything, cruising around the room holding onto any piece of furniture he can get his hands on, walking around holding 1 of our fingers, and almost ready to walk on his own. These past 9 months have gone by much faster than the 9 months he was growing inside me. Our little baby is growing into a little boy who will be 1 in just 3 short months.

Labor Day Weekend

We spent Labor Day Weekend out in Norther Virginia visiting family members. Pa was nice enough to ride around with us while we car shopped. We haven't bought anything yet, but probably soon.

Grandad & Grandma Winters told us all about their trip to France & Russia. They brought Colby back some fun souvenirs too.


We also enjoyed our al fresco dinner with Nana.
